Fab Freebie: Light Up A Room (& Board)

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***

We were so pumped when Room & Board wrote to us about doing a giveaway. Their furniture and accessories are practically the epitome of the clean-lined, comfortable-yet-sophisticated, natural-material-ed (?) aesthetic that we love. And while there’s plenty to ogle over on their site, one of their Galbraith & Paul pendant lights is officially up for grabs. There are a wide variety of graphic pattern-happy designs, so follow this link to hunt down your favorite (and we completely understand if you get sidetracked by all of the pillows while you’re there).

Room Board Pendants

Here are the deets:

  • PRIZE: One Galbraith & Paul pendant (priced up to $449) from Room & Board
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M BOARD” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … if you could pick any room in your house to magically be more illuminated and full of light, what space would that be? Your basement? A closet? A tiny half bathroom?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 13th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 48 contiguous United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

******************************

This giveaway’s random winner is… Liz Zankowski (who’s loved these pendants so long that she was excited just at the chance to win). Well, now you’ve won – congrats!

And everyone else can take advantage of Room & Board’s Designer Lighting Event. You can score 15% off Modernica, Flos and Pablo lighting now through Oct 19th.

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Room & Board.

    I’m Board! I wish my hallway was a little brighter without having to turn on the light, even in the middle of the day. Both hallway closet doors block windows when open, so it’s a bit gloomy!

    I’m board! I bought a house very similar to yours in condition last year and my partner and I have been slowly tackling projects. We in are in the midst of tearing out pet-icky carpets and swapping them with eco-cork floors! Lighting is a big issue everywhere in the house and because of the (beautiful!) exposed wood ceiling beams the house always feels like a cave. beautiful, artistic lighting would be such a blessing!! <3

    Our garage could use some good lighting. It’s hard to say what’s lurking in there. But I’d probably put this to good use in our dinig room. We’ve repurposed an old lamp shade as our DIY pendant light, but I’d love to have a legit fixture. Fingers crossed!

    My whole house! Especially my living room& dining room that only get setting, west sun in the winter when the trees are bare – then it streams through the transoms and blinds you :-) That definitely needs some lighting love. That or replace the scary ceiling fan in my bedroom with a lovely pendant
