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…our second bedroom feels like fingernails on a chalkboard. we have wonderful land lords, but i cannot for the life of me figure out why they painted the tiny rooms of the little brick bungalow such dark colors! so this “2nd bedroom” is really my closet- and we refer to it as the “green room” in everyday conversation.

    i have bakers rack shelving and cloth bins from the container store as my storage. the room is about 9×11 or maybe even smaller. it is painted dark forest duck hunting green and has a linoleum floor. i have given it the least amount of attention because i feel like it is a lost cause- so i just use it as a place to throw my random junk. i spend as little time in there as possible. please help. i am truly board with our little pit of a green room.

    thank you and happy monday

    Our living room is so dark – there’s no light fixtures and small, oak-shaded windows. I have lamps everywhere, but it’s still dark. But this would go in my girls’ room – because I broke their overhead light the other day moving furniture.

    I’d illuminate my spare bedroom. It’s at the back (well technically, the front) and it gets almost no natural light.

    I feel like the lighting in our bedroom just isn’t sufficient. We have a fan/light, a light in the nook area that is never used because it’s in an awkward spot, and a lamp by the bed. But it always seems dim/off! (Not that I want it super bright, but you know what I mean).
