***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 the ability to remember important dates (birthdays, anniversaries, events) forever and ever. Probably taking up valuable space in my brain and hence why I can’t remember why I went to Target when I’m standing at the entrance (to drop $100 on new lamp shades?!?).

I am another one with a weird memory. I can often remember odd days and times.. what people were wearing etc. And when I was in school and studying, during tests I could often recall which books and where on a page information was in my head. Weird I know. I couldn’t read back a page for you but I could remember the general set up.
