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 diagnosed Urban Funk with a touch of Set Sail. Which makes perfect sense to me–I love all things beach but try to keep the temptation to throw seashells and flip-flops all over the place at bay. I do this by painting walls sea-inspired colors (like “Yacht Harbor” by Behr). One of the inspiration thumbnails was actually of the same exact Polaroid camera I have display on a shelf in my guest room. So, pretty spot on. The “retro” theme makes sense to as my husband and I have been renovating our 1923 house with a combo of modern (e.g., Ikea kitchen) and vintage-inspired elements that speak to the era the house was built in (e.g., schoolhouse lights).

    So I think they did a bang up job of figuring me out – Vegas Baby with a touch of classic. Though how those work together, I don’t know. My friends say they like my decorating, but that they would never do it for themselves.

    I got sassy with a touch of boho (a one-picture change gave me classic with a touch of boho). I’d say that’s pretty close…I’d call it sassy with a nod to classic. Regardless, I love me some HomeGoods!

    SCOPE ME! I am Sassy with a touch or Classic. I think that my comfort level in my home decor leans more to the Classic side right now because I am cheap and don’t want to have a dated room with no money to update it.

    Scope Me! I took the quiz and got “Urban Funk” with a touch of “Boho”. I totally get the Urban Funk because my husband and I love the industrial and utilitarian, but not so much the Boho. Maybe i just never really thought about what Boho was, go figure.
