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 have a ridiculous memory. My mom takes me to all of her important doctor’s appointments now because I can go home afterward and type up everything the doctor said in the order he said it with all the proper medical terminology and any explanations he gives (I’m not a medical pro; I’m a graphic designer). Then I email it to her, and she uses that to update family on her situation.

    My special talent is writing (in French!) I’m always good to find the right words for the right person.

    I’m talented! I have crazy, flexible arms and can bend them in weird positions. I also can lick my elbow! Who says that is impossible?!

    I’M TALENTED! I can blow air out of my eyeball when I blow my nose.. not a great special talent, more like a circus trick that makes your eye water.. but still.. I can do it!

    IM TALENTED!

    Actually, I don’t think I have any particularly outstanding talents, but I’m pretty good at a lot of things (that whole jack of all trades, master of none thing).

    “I’M TALENTED” My friends say that I’m very creative though I’m not sure if that falls under a talent.

    I’m Talented………Not! I can’t think of anything that classify me as talented. I’m just an average joe.

    I’M TALENTED!

    This might be hard to explain but I can bend all the sides of my tongue up so they make a little bowl in my mouth. It never comes in handy!

    I’M TALENTED! I have a plant that I have kept alive for 10 years. Granted its one of those plants that are almost impossible to kill, but for me this is a major accomplishment.

    I’M TALENTED. :)
    I manage to remember totally unimportant details, but sometimes I just can’t remember really important things…

    I’M TALENTED!!! I know a wide variety of nonsensical facts that no sane person would ever remember and can work them into almost any conversation. Neat, hunh?
