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 talented at making people feel comfortable in my home. I have a relaxed attitude, try not too fuss too much about details, and genuinely love to have you in my home.

    I can wink each of my eyes, one at a time, back and forth. I remember practicing and practicing when I was about 8 until I could do it without even thinking!

    That’s a hard question! My husband says I’m really good at searching. Many family members call me to find sth for them on the web!

    My talent is that I can draw whatever I can see…I inherited this from my mom who inherited it from her dad.

    I love to bake. Not sure if that’s a talent, and I’m not super awesome or creative, but my kiddos and husband are always appreciative and impressed :)

    I’M TALENTED!…or at least my children think so. They’re amazed at my ability to wiggle my ears and touch my tongue to my nose. Aren’t you impressed, too?!

    I’M TALENTED! Love to organize and multi-task, getting lots done early in the morning so I can shop or decorate the rest of the day!

    I am a very fast reader (and can easily read a big book in a couple of hours if it really interests me).

    I’m talented at figuring things out. If there is something to learn, I will learn it! I am also very talented at spending money at Cost Plus World Market. It is one of my favorite stores. I have a world market bed and table. Sadly, since moving east, the nearest one is in DC and I’m in Philly :(

    sort of! My only talent is probably knowing a lot of useless information of pop culture.

    I’M TALENTED! I’m crazy good at recognizing people and voices, especially from commercials. I can seriously follow a actors career through various commercials.
