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.

    If I could add light to my bedroom, that would be so great! The apartment I live in has no overhead lighting and I haven’t been able to find an affordable floor lamp that does the job.

    Our living room doesn’t have any ceiling lamps, which is a frustration, especially when we have to turn off the circuits to change an outlet and suddenly we are quite literally in the dark.

    I’M BOARD! I love all the natural light in our house, so I can’t really pick a room to magically illuminate. The only really dark room is that way on purpose because it’s a theater room! It takes two layers of black-out curtains to keep it dark enough to watch those daytime football games on the projector screen though. :o)

    I just bought my first house, originally buolin 1922. I fixed it up, and now ts great! One problem: the covered back porch. There are random cupboards and shelves that are covered by the washer and dryer, as well as floorboards that have seen more wear an tear than the driveway. Help!
