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 our great room was brighter. It has high cathedral ceilings that make it hard (for me) to decide where to put more lights. Even though we have two large skylights, 3 island pendants, 2 floor lamps, 2 desk lamps and 14 recessed lights it’s still dark in here!!!

    I’m Board! I know that this isn’t wildly inventive, but the truth is, we have an eat-in kitchen, and our little dinner table tends to feel like it’s on the dark side. I might even say that it can feel a little gloomy depending on what time of day it is, so I would definitely dress that corner up with some lovely light!

    I’M BOARD! Our living room has super-high ceilings that are sloped, so we could not install the can lights in them like the rest of the house. I would love some more light in there after it is dark outside!!

    I’M BOARD! We’re moving into a new place at the end of the month, and there isn’t a window in the bathroom, which is typical of apartments I guess. But neither is there a window in the kitchen, and I’m going to miss it much more there! I’d love to have a beautiful fixture in the adjoining dining area.
