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 would definitely put a new light in our dining room! The light we have now is “builder basic” and sooo boring! And it’s never bright enough when I need it to be!

    My living room! The room has two large windows, but it faces a busy street that gets a lot of pedestrian traffic and we just don’t feel comfortable opening up the blinds and letting in the sun, as well as all the looky-lous.

    IM BOARD.

    Every Room in our house needs to be more illuminated. Our house was built in 1975 and has 4 overhead junction boxes total! And 2 of those are in the kitchen. It is so hard to get enough good light with lamps.

    I would say my dining room. Since recently moving into our first house (800 sq feet) this room has become a room we are in alot…we eat there, study there, hang out, play board games. It needs better light.

    I wish our family room was brighter. It’s bordered by a large roofed lanai on the outside of the house that blocks a lot of light from coming into the room.

    Our front entry needs some new light. We have the fixture that was there when we moved. A yellow glassed art deco number that is actually quite nice but it doesn’t give off much light, only a dim yellow glow. I thought I’d do a little DYI project on it but I can’t do anything about the yellow glass.
