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.

- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One

Sewing has been a great love of mine for over forty years – I can make pretty much anything. I’ve made prom dresses, bridesmaids’ dresses, a wedding dress,
home decor – drapes, curtains, table runners, table cloths, duvets, pillows, quilts. Right now I’m loving sewing baby nurseries for my young colleagues from work: crib sheets, changing pad covers, window treatments, crib skirts, quilts. I love it all – my Mom taught me and my talent has been a gift on so many levels.
