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! Oh, I’d love one of these pendants in any room of our home, but especially in our eat-in kitchen. We have recessed lighting, but I’d love something to “define” the actually eating space with more light. Otherwise, it would be fabulous in our toyroom/office!

    Our kitchen needs better lighting. We have florescent lights and a creepy little globe light over our stove.
    I dream of under-the-cupboard dimmers and recessed lighting. Maybe a cute pendant too.

    I would love more light in my basement/ entry way. We don’t have any windows, and when you enter the house, it looks very dim, I would love it if we could add more light, and make it the house look more inviting.

    I’M BOARD! I would love to light up my living/dining room, which tends to be dark all day long except for a brief time at sunset (thanks to the gigantic magnolia out front, and the front porch.) One of those R&B drum pendant lights would put me in drum light heaven. :-)

    I would love more light in my kitchen. No windows makes it pretty dark in there all the time. The builder grade generic lighting doesn’t help either :(
