Fab Freebie: The Cutting Edge

*** This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

We’ve got two names to announce as the random winners this week and they are… Eileen Marie (who lives on the edge by teaching on the “mean streets of Chicago”) and Kristin M (who is the mom to a “crazy 2 year old” – which is a life on the edge that we can relate to). Congrats ladies! And for everyone else, Cutting Edge Stencils added a 20% discount code – YHL20 –  that’s good through Sunday. Sweet!

Who wants to jump on the wall stencil bandwagon with us (remember when Sherry spent 14 hours stenciling our office last October? Well how does a $50 nudge sound? Because the folks at Cutting Edge Stencils are gonna give two of you a gift card that’ll cover just about any stencil in their catalog – from florals and geometrics to damasks and graphic shapes. They’ve even got a new collection of stencils created by Design Star winner Kim Myles (we especially love her gingko leaf design on the right). And is the one on the top left giving anyone else Jeff Lewis vibes?

Cutting Edge Stencil Giveaway

  • PRIZE: $50 to Cutting Edge Stencils
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “EDGE ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … how you live life on the edge. I ask this somewhat sarcastically since life on the edge for us usually includes eating a second dessert or negotiating a good yard sale deal. But if you’ve really done (or regularly do) something thrilling or outrageous, we’d love to hear about it.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 6th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • DISCOUNT: 20% off with code YHL20 through 6/17
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Cutting Edge Stencils.

    EDGE ME! I’ve been skydiving 2 times…and it was awesome both times. I’m partial to the first, though, since it was over the water on the North Shore of Oahu when I lived in Hawaii. It was, as they say, amazeballs!

    I don’t do anything edgy but I’ve been wanting to stencil chevrons on the ceiling of my bathroom/closet/garage hallway ever since I saw something that inspired me on your blog.

    Edge me! I think we live on the edge like you guys haha. Our idea of a crazy night is buying new lights for the outside of the house! A new stencil would be great though for the bathroom that I need to redo. It currently has wallpaper circa 1960 that I havent touched yet.

    I’m right there with y’all in that double desserts are about as edgy as I get … mind you, I’m not above trying new things from time to time but I don’t regularly go out seeking such things!

    We are boring….maybe using old pieces and mixing/matching/refinishing to make a fun, more modern, coordinating, gender neutral nursery is edgy (for us at least)!

    Edge Me! I am definitely not a thrill seeker, although I do have an interesting job. I work with refugees, asylum seekers, and victims of human trafficking. It’s not really as exciting as it sounds though… My husband is also a rockstar (looks like I’m not the only one)! So, between one thing and another, we get enough excitement around the house.
