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).

    I’m Board!
    I would love to lighten up my living room. I am currently living in a 1 bedroom plus one sun room (used as a second bedroom) apartment in Washington, DC. I actually think that you have done a re-do in my current building and your ideas for how to cover up the sun room doors for privacy were very helpful for my roommate and I! But in covering up the sun room windows, we have also covered up my living room’s only light source. Thank you for all of the ideas you have shared and inspiration for my first apartment!

    I’M BOARD! I’d really like a light in the little “nook” in our bedroom. My reading chair has no light and my eyes are beginning to suffer… Not yet, but I’m sure they will with time. Right? Right! So, yes, a lovely light over my reading chair. Thanks for the offer! :)

    Would love to get more light into our dining room. With a North facing window, it doesn’t get much natural light. Plus the chandelier over the dining table, which came with the house, is not really my style.

    I would love to light up our bedroom, there is not a lot of natural lighting and the lights we have just aren’t cutting it.

    I would love to upgrade the light situation in my bedroom. By day it’s gloriously sun-filled (you know, while I’m at work, not witnessing it) but by night the fugly landlord-purchased ceiling light fixture does not cut it. Let’s get rid of that thing.

    our family room is a good size & has nice natural lighting. but at night? with the vaulted ceilings, the light gets eaten up. so definitely the family room!

    my hallway has one measly bulb to provide lighting. it could definitely use another source of light.

    The guest bedroom has a really wimpy overhead fixture, even after we changed the bulbs to higher wattage CFL ones!

    I’M BOARD! Our bedroom is in desperate need for more lighting! We have a floor lamp that just doesn’t do it justice! Our office needs some more lighting too so I can see when I sew! :)

    “I’M BOARD” and…
    I have yet to install lights into the closet that my husband built me two years ago. The switch is there, the wiring is there, just need to get going on this!

    The only source of sunlight in our living room is from the french doors that have permanent blinds in them…I’d love some more light in there. :) I tried to convince my hubby we need skylights put in but nope, not yet.

    Would love to light up our basement. It is currently used as our little girls play space, so these fixtures would look great with all the beautiful colors and patterns!

    I would love one of these pendants in our new dining room. They’re exactly what I’ve been looking for!

    I’M BOARD! Really our whole house could use more light, its a basement condo on the back of a building facing woods. If I had to pick one room though it would be our guest bedroom. It is the least lucky in the light we do get and is perpetually sad in the lighting department.

    I’m board! My living room! It has big gorgeous windows but the decor is awful–yellow on yellow on yellow so I keep the drapes closed. We’re remodeling and the living room is last on the list. :(

    I definitely wish that our basement den had more light! It has two small windows, but they don’t do much past early afternoon. The overhead lights are small and dim – I would love to update that room!

    I’m board! I’d love for our den to magically light up! There are no overhead light fixtures in there, and it’s hard to get enough light in there.

    I would add more light to our kitchen. My husband and I are both graduate students so our kitchen table also functions as our desk in our tiny apartment.

    I’m Board! I just illuminated my kitchen with a new light fixture, and now the living room is dim in comparison. Let there be light! :)
