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.

    My apartment kitchen could use a new light, we currently have one of those gross flourescent lights where you can see the dead bugs. I’m househunting with my bf and hope to move by the end of the year, and I’m sure that home will also need a great light!

    Most of my rooms could use more light – office, bedroom, living, kitchen. Luckily, I live in a studio apartment, so they’re all actually the same room. A little light goes a long way when it comes to compact living. Hee.

    I’M BOARD with the boring pendant over my kitchen table. I used to have a Galbraith & Paul pendant in my old house…I miss it! P.S. I really want to brighten up my little workout room. Not sure the G&P pendant would work in there though…might be a gym hazard. Would definitely love one in my kitchen though.

    I’M BOARD! The cavernous closet in our apartment needs lighting badly. I’m not sure why the original builders thought it was a good idea to create a closet 3 feet wide and forever deep. Perhaps they could see better in the dark in the 1900s

    I wish my master bedroom and living room were brighter/lighter. Those are the only two rooms in the house that don’t have junction boxes and/or can lights and so it would be so great to have “overhead” lighting in both! Lamps only do so much :-(
