Fab Freebie: Scoping Out The Goods

*** This giveaway is now closed – see who won! ***

Glad to hear so many of you had fun with the quiz (though sorry it had a bit of trouble loading for some). Random.org has selected our lucky winner and she is… Emily W (who thought she’d be BOHO, but ended up a mix of Sassy and Classic). Congrats Emily!

It’s been a while since we’ve posted about a fun what’s-your-design-style type quiz (like these of the past). And it’s been never since our post about one came with a chance to win $500 from HomeGoods. So if ever there was time to put aside your allegiance to scientific results, this would be a good one. HomeGoods has revamped their Stylescope quiz (with the help of HGTV’s Taniya Nayak) to help pin down your style in just one question. Pick your favorite five of the 36 provided images and BAM! –  instant diagnosis.

HomeGoods Stylescope1

The cool part (besides the $500 prize) is they not only give you a description of your style, but also throw in quick tips for decorating, shopping, gift-giving, and even entertaining based on your evaluation. They also suggest a Pinterest board dedicated to your style as well as a blog that showcases it as well. And you just might recognize the name of the blog that goes along with the “Sassy” style. We were totally flattered when they asked to link over to us (and giving one of you guys a $500 credit was the icing on the cake).

HomeGoods StylescopeResults1

  • PRIZE: A $500 gift card to HomeGoods.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “SCOPE ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …did you take the quiz? What was your result? Did your secondary result feel more accurate than the primary one? Or do you think one of the other style personalities is a closer fit to you?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Sept 19th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (but we’re always trying to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • 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 on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of HomeGoods.

    SCOPE ME!!! I was Farm House Glam with a touch of Classic. I think those two categories are accurate, but more of a 50/50 split than just a touch of either!

    Scope me! I’m Sassy with a touch of Classic. I think in reality my style is hard to define. It all depends on the mood I’m in and what’s influencing me at the moment. My home is pretty eclectic…classic, mid-century, industrial and earthy. Somehow it all works for me and is always changing.

    Maybe the other way around? Or maybe I haven’t done enough proper decorating to see if that’s right or wrong for sure!

    I took the quiz. I had a hard time picking only 5 images though! I was “set sail” and “urban funk”. I did think that my secondary result was more me.

    I liked the quiz a lot but it made me realize how differently I view images/snapshots vs. larger items like spaces. I prefer more neutral tones for the overall look and would use bright images or color to liven it up. So I guess what I’m saying is I’m not sure how well (for me) these images translate to my overall aesthetic.

    Great quiz, though! It linked to some good resources and I’m always looking for more blogs to love =)
