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 can read print upsidedown and backwards and can spot a mispelling/grammatical error/typo 1/4 of a mile away. :)

    “I’m talented”. Wiggle your ears.. That is too funny! I always thought my brother was the only one that could do that…I was always so jealous!

    I’m talented! I can remember the lyrics to almost any song I’ve ever heard (the only exception being rap that’s too fast to understand)!

    I’M TALENTED!! My talent is really dumb but I have found that a lot of people wish they could raise one eyebrow. I can raise my left eyebrow by itself, I love giving people quizzical looks.

    Not only can I actually wiggle my ears, I also have a super good memory. Unfortunately I’ve never mastered wiggling my nose :(

    Ummm, but I’m not sure at what. I have an excellent memory for conversations – in fact I often freak people out by remembering small details from conversations several years old. Does that count?
