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 lucky in the fact that my house has a lot of windows and a therefore a lot of light! The only room that needs more light is our bathroom. It has one tiny window that the previous owners of the home frosted over.

    I’m board! I would illuminate the hallway entrance from my back door. It’s a strange little dark area without any windows which allows us to access the back door, the bathroom, the kitchen and the dining room all with just one little turn. I’d love to illuminate that area because it currently looks like a dungeon. It’s too cute to look like a dungeon!

    It would have to be the living room…oddly enough a light wasn’t installed in there and we have two lamps that barely do us any good.

    My bedroom is IN the basement and desperately needs better lighting. It has a tiny dugout window, low ceilings, and even lower heating ducts (painted bright orange for some reason!) Ah the wonders of renting.

    Since my office is in a windowless basement as well, there are many days in the winter up here in the Pacific Northwest where I just don’t see the daylight. *sniffsniff* Okay sob story over!

    My bedroom could really use more light. We only have bedside lamps, and could use a ceiling light. That said, I would use the prize to get a new light for my kitchen eating area… Our current one is boring and ugly!

    We get a lot of natural light during the day, but the walk-in closet in our master bedroom could use some additional lighting in the evenings.

    I would like to light up this strange half room at the top of the stairs before you get to the master bedroom. It’s a little passthrough area that could be pretty with some lovely light and paint.

    I’m board! Our master bathroom is without a window one. We’ve added recessed lighting and lights above the sink, but we could always use more. Other than that, I would love one of these lights above the kitchen sink. We’re in need of an upgrade there.
