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 sew pretty well. I sewed everything, from pants, to coats, even skirts, tops, and my niece’s bautism dress (we are catholics). I do remember movie trivia, like director’s and actor’s movie names.

    I’M TALENTED…. I’m hyper-mobile and can contort my body in unusual ways. I can always zip a dress for myself.

    I’m talented… I can keep peace in my family and my husband’s. And, I’d love to buy a new chair for my living room. You know, the family can’t just sit on the couch.
