Fab Freebie: Talent Show

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

This week’s randomly selected winner is… Sheilagh (who’s talents lie in “all aspects of art and being crafty!”). Congrats!

One of the most exciting parts of doing a project is getting to share the sweat-inducing results when it’s done. And that’s the idea behind HouseTalent, a free site where you can easily upload before pics, progress shots, and after photos of the DIYs that are going on in your digs. The friendly interface makes browsing other peoples’ accomplishments just as easy as uploading your own inspiration – from small furniture builds to major room overhauls. And to help you get some of your projects ready to share, HouseTalent is giving away a $250 gift card to World Market this week. Speaking of the world, this giveaway is available internationally – so if World Market doesn’t ship to you, you can select a local alternative for your gift card.

    I’M TALENTED!

    Well, I’m an 80yr old woman stuck in a 30-something year old body as I re-taught myself how to crochet (my mom taught me when I was around 10 because my English grandmother said, “It’s the proper activity for a young lady!”…you totally read that in an English accent, didn’t you?! LOL!). I love it so much I decided to open my own etsy store 2yrs ago, Coconut Frosting.

    I can put both of my feet behind my head. It’s so useful… Okay, it’s useless. But it’s still fun to freak out my daughter when I do it.

    Yesterday, I ran a mile to a restaurant, ate a fish taco, and ran a mile back. Didn’t lose my lunch. TALENT!

    “I’M TALENTED”! I painted our house numbers on our front door- freehanded! I felt like such a rebel not having to paint in between the lines!

    I’M TALENTED! I can remember all the lyrics to songs from the 90s (even some from the 80s and 70s because that’s the score from my childhood) but I can’t remember what someone told me yesterday! Or what happened in a book I read. Or what goes in the recipe next. Or anything other than those darn lyrics!!

    I’m talented :) I’d say..hmm. I’m getting my physics PhD but I’m also great at writing – blog, essays, scientific, anything. That’s unusual for my field (most scientists that I meet hate writing papers)…Once I finish the research, writing the papers is the easiest part.

    I have a crazy detailed memory when it comes to animal facts. I can also recognize many species and breeds from photos/on sight.
