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 have to say my living room. It doesn’t get much natural lighting and what little it does get is filtered through the huge trees we have outside. Now, I’m not complaining about the trees, we <3 them, but unfortunately they make our living room feel a little cave-like from time to time. :(

    These lamps are so adorable. We moved into our house in July. Let’s just say we have a few chandeliers/light fixtures that I think have numbered days. I’m thinking a light like this would great in our office. That’s one room that we’re tackling first because its small.

    Definitely need some additional lighting for the office (which is being turned into baby room #2 – expecting the 2nd one in March!) There is currently only one light in there, which is my Ott light at my sewing table! Poor kid – we better get started on this room!

    I would use it in our fireplace room. The light fixture we inherited looks like an upside down fruit bowl and is way too small for the space. And I want the lighting to be the center piece!

    Definitely our living room. The previous tenant put in a very pretty, but incredibly dim fixture. You can’t tell when the light is on or off except for a dull flickering. We have to rely on lamps, but I think one of these pendant lights would do just the job!

    My house is typically very light and open. However, my half bathroom is so dark. I wish there was a way to put in a small circle window (it’s on the front of the house) or even a skylight. SOMETHING! I love natural light. :) However, if I win the light, it’s going in my craft + office. I’ve been wanting a bright light to hang in there.

    I would love more light in my living room. It’s a weird L shape off my dining area, and there’s only one window that doesn’t really get any natural light. We have a toddler, and the plugs in the room are in funny spots, so we have one sad torchier and a three light fixture mounted in a former can light. There are huge dark spots in the evening that I hate!
