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.

    And I’d just love the Bamboo pendant light for the dining area of our new home. Would look fab because it’s a little dark in that area of the house.
    Thanks for the chance ;0)

    I would love to light up our dark living room, during the day its fine b/c we have large windows but as soon as five p.m. hits it looks dark and dreary and I’ve yet to find that perfect lamp for the space.

    I would totally up my living room better. Lots of can lights, which are so high up the bulb goes out and I never replace it… I’ve have 3 burnt lights for 2yrs. :) I have one pendant light (with a compact florescent bulb) that I use all the time in the living room. Sometimes, I could use more light!

    We would lighten up our bedroom! It currently has this atrocious, old-school ceiling fan (although I love a good ceiling fan, this one is super 90s) but because we’re renting, I can’t justify buying a whole new fan (they’re expensive!) With a cool pendant light, we could just swap em out and enjoy charming lighting for once!

    I would also light up my master bedroom. We have no ceiling light and one of the two lamps of the beside tables is broken…needless to say it is a very dark room. Good thing we mostly sleep there. :)
