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’M BOARD!

    I would love to add a new lighting fixture to our TINY downstairs hallway. Currently, our ceiling is rockin’ the ever popular “boob” light (you know, the cheap/typical builder home style). The hallway can be seen from the dining room, living room, and houses the doors leading to our son’s room and bathroom. I would love a punchy new light to reflect our style and to be ogled from many rooms in our home!

    My bedroom needs more light! We have a weird sloped ce3iling, so the low part is only 6ft tall, and the high part is 8 feet. Nothing can hang from the ceiling and tall lamps can’t shed their light :(

    I’m Board!! I’d love to add more light to my 4 year old son’s room. It’s in the basement, which usually isn’t a problem because it’s a garden-level basement, but his only window looks out under the deck. It’s really dark in that room!

    We definitely need some more light–we live in a 100-year old + four-plex. When we moved in, we realized that neither bedroom, nor the living room had any over-head lights–none at all–not to mention limited outlets). Er, surprise…! A lovely pendant light would be an amazing asset to our guest room/office/all purpose room, which we haven’t worked out a good lighting system…(right now we have to cross the room to turn on the floor lamp, which is plugged into the only outlet).
