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! My bedroom could definitely use some brightening! Althought I have a floor to ceiling window, my bedroom faces the back side of the house and the light doesn’t stream in the way it does in the front side of my house making my bedroom pretty dark (even worse on rainy days!).

    I think if I could re-light any room, it would be my master bedroom. We’ve got a lamp thing going on, but since we’ve got a mid-century modern vibe going on one of these pendants would be a perfect replacement for our ceiling fan (which is sans light-kit).

    Thanks for the giveaway, YHL and Room & Board!

    Our living room has no hardwired lights and gets only morning sun, so the afternoons in there are dark and dreary (even with 2 lamps).

    Our bedroom is a converted basement living room, and there is no overhead lighting! All of our lamps cast weird side shadows, but I tell myself that it’s cozy.

    My basement, for sure. It’s where our washer and dryer are, and it’s sooooo dark. However, I wouldn’t waste one of these pretty pendants on the basement. I’d put it over my bed or dining table.

    I would love light everywhere in the kitchen. We have a small window, and some overheads, but I really need track lighting to spotlight the work areas. We’ll get there eventually. See our progress at our blog!
