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.

    IM BORED! Our “dining room” happens to share a space with our Living Room so the addition of a beautiful light like this would really help define the space for dining. Not to mention help the single lamp in the living room to light things up!

    Those pendants are beautiful! I’d love to put one over my dining room table! If I had to select one area to magically get more light – it’d be the hall pantry. There is no light in there, I have to rely on the hall light!

    “I’M BOARD” (though never when I’m reading your wonderful site!)

    My basement really needs more light… but my bedroom needs prettier, more romantic light. So if I won I’d really be torn which room to put it in. I’d probably just put it in the living room since that way more people would get to ogle it (nobody’s really in those other two rooms except for us!).

    I’M BOARD! And I’d choose to illuminate my dining room, because a) it’s currently under renovation and I haven’t picked out the lighting for it yet, and b) there’s no electricity running in there at all at this point, so it’s really hard not to trip over stuff when you’re trying to work!
