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!

    Definitely baking and cooking rank as my top talents–I’m your go-to gal if you want home-baked goods or made from scratch salsas, guacamole, 6 course dinner or just some good old fashioned picnic fare. :)

    No strange or quirky talents here, but I think my friends and family would say I’m talented at DIY, decorating and crafty stuff :)

    I love to cook and my special talent is being able to recreate dishes we’ve had somewhere at home. They aren’t always exactly the same but usually pretty close.

    Um, sadly I can’t think of anything. So maybe the statement above is false, but I’d still like to win.

    I can wiggle my ears and I’m a decent dancer too. I can even do both at the same time. Amazing right? ;) hehe

    I can make pretty much anyone laugh…usually it involves making myself look like an idiot, but I am okay with that.

    I can improvise most recipes without having all the actual ingredients on hand…most of the time.

    I’m talented…I have eyes in the back of my head, I can operate on very little sleep, I can breastfeed my baby, feed my toddler, and myself at the same time, and I can do almost anything with one arm. Lol
