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…and I don’t have many places in my house I would light up – my dad’s an electrician so I have undercabinet lights, overcabinet lights, lights on the stairs. But that doesn’t mean I have pretty pendant lights, so I’d LOVE to win this!

    Hmmm…the living room doesn’t have a light fixture so I’d definitely could use one there, and we still haven’t updated our guest room or office lighting…

    Our kitchen! Our living room is extremely open and airy with 6 windows (6!) but the kitchen just off of it is a bit dark and drab. We’ll need to tackle it sooner or later!

    I’m Board! I want one of these awesome lights for my extremely outdated, grandma-looking, rose wallpapered, powder room. It is in desperate need of a makeover and this gorgeous light will jump start the whole process! I can’t wait to get started on this tiny little half bath! With this light, it will go from drab to Fab!

    By the way, you’re mood boards page is amazing. I love the ideas, colors, and unique finds. Something I haven’t seen you “mood board” yet is a patio area. Something like a small balcony. Of course, I could draw inspiration from your gorgeous porch or sunroom, but…

    Thanks for having such wonderful ideas!
