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.

    I’m actually multitalented in all homekeeping. This past weekend, for example, I unplugged a toilet and snaked my tub drain.

    My husband calls me “rain girl” because I can remember just about everything about any movie I’ve ever seen (even if it was just a trailer not the actual movie)!

    I’M TALENTED – I can cook just about anything I see online or in a magazine. I don’t like to bake, but I can sure cook. :)

    “I’M TALENTED”

    I’d have to say that my special talent is my ability to memorize multiple groups of numbers, my driver’s license, my credit cards, birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

    I’M TALENTED! I remember series of numbers of friends and family from way back! Addresses, Birthdates, Phone Numbers, Social Security Numbers…you name it, I’ve remembered it.

    Now, ask me what I had for lunch yesterday and it would be a big guess!

    “I’M TALENTED” I paint. I refuse to buy art from almost anywhere and instead go home and paint something similar myself.

    “I’M TALENTED”

    I’ve been working with polymer clay for a few years, but in the last year I have leveled up. It’s always nice when you make a talent breakthrough and things that were once to difficult suddenly seem almost easy.

    I’M TALENTED; I find typos in books, newspapers, etc. It’s a good skill to have I guess – although sometimes I definitely wish I could turn it off!!

    I love to sing. :) I’ll never make it on American Idol or anything, but it’s something I love doing at church.

    “I’M TALENTED”

    Unfortunately, not. I guess my talent is sniffing out a fib in my kids. I can smell a little white lie a mile away.

    (hint: it’s all in the eyes!)
