*** 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?
- 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 live on the edge by umpiring for my town’s rec softball league – some of those players get intense.
Patty says
Edge me.
Melissa says
Edge me!
I lived life on the edge last week when we tried to make a 1300 mile car ride to my bro’s wedding, with a 4 month old…needless to say, I fell over the edge … he and I caught a flight home while daddy, pop pop, and the pooch make the 1300 mile long ride back.
Leslie M says
Edge Me!!
Ginny @ goofymonkeys says
EDGE ME!
I live on the edge by choosing paint colors that TERRIFY my family and friends. Bright, bold, dark, different – I love to stray away from super neutrals. Only one “bad” choice so far!
Julie says
Edge me! I’m thinking my life is pretty much always on the edge….of my sanity…I’m a mom to six, in graduate school full-time, and working part-time. LOL
Lisa says
EDGE ME! Living on the edge for me is buying a bright yellow purse and wearing it with everything!
Steph M says
Edge me! 16 years as an Army wife with 3 lovely kiddos moving across the globe with my hubby definitely qualifies! (11 moves in 16 years). We’re finally setting down in northern VA next week!

EDGE ME!
Well, let’s see… Living on the edge for us means ripping walls and remodeling things! :)
Liz says
Edge me! Because I need something more interesting to say when asked this question :)
Gina says
Edge me……please!! I have been dying to try my hand at stenciling. Cannot decide which one to order so i just keep putting it off. Love the ginkgo leaf by Kim Myles! Believe I’d get that one if I was lucky enough to win. Keeping my fingers and toes crossed!
Erin m says
Edge me! I’m boring. So not much living on the edge. Enjoy a rousing game of zuma from time to time. Lol
Stephanie says
EDGE ME!
Not much risk taking here, unless you count taking a 2 yr old and 5 month old grocery shopping.
Lisa says
EDGE ME!
I’m a freelance graphic designer and I don’t have offsite storage for my files!
Sheela says
EDGE ME! Hmmm, I rode a 240 foot free fall ride at Busch Gardens last fall – that’s “on the edge” enough for me for a while!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Tracey says
EDGE ME, please! I have the wall, the paint and the design in mind! I haven’t done anything really crazy since having my daughter almost two years ago – Three hours of pushing, a vacuum extractor, a corrective procedure 7 months later… Definitely the craziest thing I’ve done since whitewater rafting! LOL
vegas710 says
EDGE ME!
I don’t actually live on the edge but I like to look like I do so I’m adding a full sleeve tattoo this year!
Sarah D. says
EDGE ME!! Cute stencils!
Nicki says
Edge Me! People say I live on the edge because I am horrible at checking the gas tank. I usually know when a car needs gas, when it starts chugging and stalling…got get your excitement from somewhere…..
Jessica says
Edge me! My husband and I live life on the edge by following Jesus. He has led us to do some unusual things, like take our firstborn to Indonesia when he was 10 months.
Keli says
EDGE ME!! We are pretty low key here, but have been pining for a wall stencil in our master bedroom on the wall behind our bed. This gift card would be just perfect. :)
Moira says
EDGE ME!
Living in a centrally isolated location the only thing edgy around here is the grass…. were I that ambitious!
Arli says
Edge me! I met a man on the internet and moved in with him (from Manhattan to a small, rural town in Texas) 5 weeks after meeting. I’m not sure if that’s edgy or just plain crazy!!!
Rachel Brown says
Edge me! I spend every day with 150 thirteen year-olds as a Middle School Teacher, which is definitely on the edge of something (insanity?) School’s out for the summer in 4 days and stenciling is on my summer project list.
Angie Jordan says
The “edgiest” thing I do these days usually deals with taking my 9 month old out on errands during the “witching hour” (anytime between the hours of 5pm and 7pm)…it’s risky buisiness!
EDGE ME!
Andrea Masterson says
EDGE ME!
With a 2 year old and a 3 month old, there’s not a whole lot of “living on the edge” going on!
Kelly says
Edge Me!
Live in the edge for me was driving from Minneapolis to Omaha with 2 Ikea bunk beds strapped to the top of our Pathfinder….I was nervious for the entire 6 hours!
Mary Bridget says
Edge Me!!!!
My edgiest moment was becoming a mom for the first time. Seriously. No drugs, guttural bellows, and I think my husband was hiding in the closet for a little while.
Next edgiest – riding my bike across Iowa in RAGBRAI 2010. Can’t wait to take my little ones!
Erika says
EDGE ME!
We are so not living on the edge people so this is tough… My husband did plan a secret anniversary getaway for this weekend though, so that’s about as edgy as we get!
Sara Caldwell says
EDGE ME! If I’m being really bad I’ll eat a candy bar (or two) on my way home from work.
Chelsie says
EDGE ME!!! I am a full-time student who needs to make a 4.0 GPA the next three semesters in order to get into the program I want. I am also a full-time, stay-at-home mother. I take care of my daughter during the day and go to school at night. Living on the edge, or at least that’s how it feels! ;-)
Ashley says
Edge me! Does expecting the birth of my second baby count as living on the edge? :)
Sarah says
Edge me!
Using a Cutting Edge stencil would be living on the edge for me since my house is pretty much builder basic blah!
Stephanie Silverstein says
Edge Me! Well, I haven’t actually done it yet but the edgiest thing I’m planning to do is rip out a weird tile extension over our existing fireplace hearth – which we keep stubbing our toes on. Demo starts tomorrow and I’m terrified to see what turns up underneath!
Zita says
Edge Me! I’ll be going on a 6 hr red eye flight without my husband this summer to visit family on the westcoast, with my 4 year old and my 1 yr old. I hope they don’t drive me off the edge!
Kim says
Edge Me! I don’t live on the edge!
joyce m says
Edge me!! I live life on the edge by being a mom…having kiddos is enough craziness for now!!
Kimberly G says
Edge Me. So we’re not real dare devils here. Although I have been known on a bored whim to randomly repaint a room.
Susan C says
EDGE ME!
My most rebellious act is hosting what I call a “trespassers picnic,” where a group of friends dine al fresco on private property (without permission).
Andrea Harper says
EDGE ME!
Now that I’m a mama I have steered clear of “the edge”. Ha! But I have been skydiving, scuba diving, ridden in a canoe on the Zambeze River filled with crocodiles and hippos among other things….so I’ve had my fair share for sure!
Kory says
EDGE ME!!!!
Kathryn says
Edge Me! I risk my sanity everytime I take my 3 kids (all under 3 1/2) to the grocery store!

Edge me! I’m buying my first house– feels pretty edgy! :) New walls sure could use some stenciling!
Stacy s. says
Edge me!
Stenciling a wall would be pretty on the edge for me :).

Edge me! Living on the edge probably means braving shopping errands with my 20 month old son!

Edge me! Planting hostas in a deer ridden neighborhood! That’s life on the edge!

Edge me!

EDGE ME! I like to hike, may not be living on the edge for most, but I feel pretty edgy when i’m at the top!!
