Fab Freebie: Moore Candice To Love

*** This contest is now closed – see who won below!***

And this week’s random winner is… Stacy (who says “when I was little, I got the local radio dj’s autograph and thought I was so cool! Looking back, it is just funny how silly it was!”). Congrats Stacy!

We love us some Candice Olson (and still pinch ourselves that our faces share a webpage with her over on BenjaminMoore.com). So we sweet talked our way into a little Benjamin Moore / Candice Olson prize for you guys – including a signed copy of her latest book, Candice Olson Bedrooms. So once you’ve torn yourself away from petting her signature (not that we’d do that, ok we totally would) and are ready to put that Olson-spiration to use, Benjamin Moore’s gonna lend a hand with two gallons of their Aura paint, a 7-piece applicator kit, a $50 gift card, and your very own Candice Olson Design Picks fan deck. And if that’s not enough of a Candice fix for ya, you can enter to win a personal design consultation from her over on Benjamin Moore’s site.

      Moore me!! I LOVE the C.O. Collection at Benjamin Moore…have already used some of her color choices in my home and looking forward to Moore …er, more.

      I have quite a few autographs from some of my favorite musical talent (John Mayer, Counting Crows), but I prefer the pictures I took with them!

    I got Rosie O’Donnell’s signature when she was in Grease on Broadway years ago. And she did the Bettie Rubble laugh for my cousin.

    Geez, that was a long time ago.

    Moore me! I received a letter from David Suzuki (a famous environmentalist) when I was 7. I was so excited at the time!

    I have actually never had an autograph, isn’t that sad? I did go to an Aerosmith concert for my birthday a few years ago and Steven Tyler touched my hand – my one claim to fame :)

    My husband and I who are HUGE Jason Mraz fans just managed to get to meet him in person at a concert last month where he wrote a really love inscription to us in a book. It was the sweetest thing ever! I’m still trying to figure out how one displays a book inscription though!!

    MOORE ME! The guys in Great Big Sea (www.greatbigsea.com) were so gracious when I was a new fan of Celtic music … my signed copies of their cds “Up” and “Play” still make me smile.

    “Moore Me!” When I was in college my favorite author came to my home town and I wasn’t able to make it – my sister got a book signed for me as a Christmas gift. It’s one of my favorite things!

    I had a CD “autographed” by the Blue Man Group when I saw them in Chicago. They kiss it an leave blue grease paint lip prints! I had to wrap it in clear packing tape to pack it for the flight home, haha.

    MOORE ME! I inherited a William Faulkner signature…though it was from a letter to his grandmother, so he signed it “Billy.” It’s nice to remember that even the greatest minds have grandmas.

    Autographs? I have a few treasured items….
    Tim and Andrew Farriss of INXS
    Lyle Lovett
    Adam West

    Each of these happenstance meetings was wonderful in its own way, with the Adam West meeting being more hysterical than wonderful. :)

    Moore me! When we went to Disney World about a decade and a half ago, I loved getting the signatures of the characters in my autograph book.

    I am sad to say that I have NO autographs. So, I’ll make my own question!!!! “If you could meet anyone or have any signed autograph, who would it be?”

    ….Why, thank you for asking. I’ll answer with the great Freddie Mercury!

    Moore me!! I have an autograph of Justin Verlander (Detroit Tigers pitcher) on a picture of him throwing his no-hitter. Needless to say, it scored big brownie points with the hubs :)

    We are moving this weekend into our new home so this prize pack would be KILLER!!!

    Thanks,
    Samantha

    I actually don’t have any but I saw Ira Glass on the street last week and I wish I had stopped him and ask for one. I’m a huge fan of his and have a small crush on him. :-)

    When I was in middle school, my favorite band was a Christian boy-band called “Plus One” – I went to their concert with my best friend and they signed our CDs and we got our pictures taken with them and we pledged to never wash our hands again. Thankfully, I moved past that pretty quick and chose to continue to wash my hands. :)

    My Grandparents went to Disneyland and got Mickey Mouse’s autograph for me…they spend the whole trip trying to find him and finally did on the last day! (Best grandparents, ever!)

    I have not snagged any signatures unless you count the many paintings and drawings that my daughter does for us.

    MOORE ME! I snagged an autographed picture of Foreigner when they ate at my friend’s grandma’s restaurant after a concert when I was in middle school. That was a realllllly long time ago.

    MOORE ME! I was an ice skater growing up, so when Tara Lipinski came to our rink, of course I had her sign my pristine (and ridiculously expensive) ice skate with a black permanent marker. My mom had a fit! Nothing a little white shoe polish couldn’t fix, though!

    omg I love Candace! and I am the proud owner of the signatures of the brothers that make up the band Hanson. Yes from mmmBop fame, but their music now is much better :)
