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!

    hmm secret talent…I’m really good at guessing the next lyric to a song I’ve never heard before (probably has more to do with listen to copious amounts of music and not really a talent, but still!)

    I’m talented! I can “name that tune” to songs played on the accordian. This seems oddly specific, I know. But one time when waiting for a show to start the venue was playing classic songs played on an accordian. None of my friends could figure out what songs were playing, but I instantly could name that tune song after song. Hidden talent discovered.

    I am freakishly talented with my feet. Yeah … weird. I can pick things up and throw stuff and I’ve even been able to write a few words with a pen between my toes. Sadly, haven’t found a way to put this talent to good use. haha

    I’M TALENTED I dunno… feels sort of weird talking about myself in this sense haha. Especially since caps lock makes it seem like i’m shouting. I can do ‘cups’-that’s fun.

    I’m talented! I paid attention in elementary geography so well that to this day can still name all 50 states in Alphabetical order.

    I love to cook, read, and paint but wouldn’t consider myself talented in any of these areas…I just love them!

    I am great at hooking rugs. I made my first one when I was a teenager and have been ‘hooked’ ever since:)

    I’M TALENTED. Let’s see, I definitely can’t play a musical instrument–clumsy hands–but I can sing a note or two.
