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 am able to remember a face and name, even if I’ve only met the person once…it freaks my friends out!

    I’m talented! Well, kind of… I can read (and comprehend) just about any book super, super fast, which really comes in handy in English!

    I’M TALENTED! …At least I think so… though I don’t have any special ‘talents’ to speak of. Can’t sing. Can dance, but not in a “look at me, I’m talented not-just-flailing-around” way. No musical talents unless you count clapping… :-)

    I am a very resourceful friend….if someone is needing something, looking for something, etc. I always seem to be able to guide them in the right direction. Now if I could only get paid for those services!

    I have a great knack for recreating things that I see in sort and online, you can often hear me in store saying, “I can make that” and for the most part I can and do!

    “I’M TALENTED” My special talent is making quilts, especially quilts for my grandkids with roads, neighborhoods and zoos to play on with hot wheels and play animals.

    I’M TALENTED – I have a talent for setting a pretty table, which is top of mind having just hosted a spring-inspired pink and green mother’s day brunch!

    I’m talented! I love doing DIY projects and I always have about 10 going on at one time. My husband gets tired just looking at the list. But, before I owned a home, I got a black belt in tae kwon do!

    I’m Talented!! I can remember the words to songs after listening to them once or twice…. I can’t imagine what useful information is being discarded to make room for lyrics
