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.

    IM BOARD!!! My living room NEEDS some brightening up!! It has two large windows and a sliding glass door that go out to a screened porch so it says dark 24-7 (Even with the 4 lamps and brightly painted walls).

    “I’m board”
    I think a new light fixture would brighten up our “den”, which is a office/playroom. I think it’s the only room that still has the builder basic light fixture.

    I’M BOARD!

    I’m lucky to have lots of windows and my apartment is generally well-lit. HOWEVER, my landlord has promised to replace my kitchen light fixture since I moved in, and it’s still just a light bulb hanging from the ceiling! Easily the ugliest part of my otherwise cute apartment. I’m ready to take matters into my own hands!

    I’M BOARD! Our dining/homeschool area could definitely use more light. Right now we have one small, ugly, rescued-from-a-curbside-years-ago table lamp in the corner to provide all the light in this heavily used space.

    My galley kitchen could use some lighting updating, the current lighting “situation” is pretty dull as the fixtures are heavy, dark, & it’s super hard for light to shine through.
