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.

    Let there be light in my stairwell. Nice and bright and inviting, with some fun art to go with it: “Come on, folks, come on upstairs and see what’s up here!”

    A practical spot for transition within the house doesn’t need to feel like it, right?!? :)

    Our condo only has windows/sliding glass doors on one side, so the dining area is pretty dark. A beautiful new drum pendant would be a welcome addition!

    I would love a new light in my dining room. I recently purchased this house and it has it’s original, cheap builder grade brass 8 light chandelier. The light is so cheap that 2 of the individual lights on the chandelier are really loose and change position within minutes of being corrected! I need some style!!

    I am actually looking at lights exactly like this for a kitchen update we’ll be doing. We just put an offer in on a house that was built in the 80s and needs some kitchen lightening and brightening ala YoungHouseLove style LOL.

    I was thinking of a round dining table with a similar fixture over it.
