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 love to light up my bedroom more! It is a huge room with high ceilings and one lonely ceiling fan/light combo. Not anywhere near enough light!

    I’d have to say the only bathroom in the house. There isn’t a window and it can be quite cave-like sometimes. We are going to remodel and I’m hoping that we can put in a skylight, but we’ll have to see.

    We’re fortunate to have a house with a lot of windows for all that glorious natural light, but I’d love to have an actual fixture in our upstairs living room. All the natural light during the day is fab, but a little extra nighttime illumination would make it even better.

    I would pick in my future home (this apartment is so temporary)…my kitchen or bathroom. Both are places where you might need extra light for specific tasks (either makeup or cooking).

    I’d love to have a better lighting situation in the one and only bathroom. Currently there’s only a porcelain sconce above the sink and medicine cabinet, resulting in a pretty dim room overall.

    My kitchen. It is located in the heart of our 1953 ranch that’s been added on to twice and is now surrounded by rooms so there are no longer any walls for windows. We have helped it out by knocking out a wall between it and another room…but if it could magically have a wall of windows, I’d love that!
