*** 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…

Edge Me!
Hmmm….I’ve ate Rocky Mountain Oysters a time or two. I guess that is kind of living life on the edge. If you don’t know what they are a simple Google search will do. Sounds delicious huh?
Kim says
EDGE ME!
My life is anything but edgy now, but next year I plan on taking a big cruise through Europe! That should be adventerous and fun. :)
Holli C says
Edge me! I will try any food once! I’ve eaten some WEIRD things!
Mandy says
EDGE ME! We live life on the edge by being the only liberals in a community of staunch, conservative Southern Baptist conservatives. It’s a hard-knock life for us! Teehee.
Sally says
Ha! Some friends of mine just moved to a conservative southern town and are having some culture shock after living in DC!
Brianne says
Edge Me!
I LOVE to sky dive!
Lea B says
EDGE ME!
I’m living on the edge this week by painting the door from our living room to our garage in white and yellow chevron.
My husband thinks I’m crazy. Lol.
Dawn says
EDGE ME!!
I don’t do anything adventurous. I’m very cautious and safe! Ha!
Ellen says
EDGE ME!
This season of The Killing has been keeping me on the edge of my seat lately!
Senora H-B says
EDGE ME!
I think the edgiest thing I’ve done recently was to paint the baseboards in our last apartment without taping off the carpet. My life is SO AWESOME.
Ashley Jensen says
OOh I did that last summer! I can’t believe I didn’t get a single drop on my carpet!
Jos says
EDGE ME! i wear white pants before memorial day.

susan says
Edge me! On my way to Yosemite as I write this…maybe I will do something edgy there!
Danielle Schaefer says
EDGE ME!
Let’s see… I guess my “edgy” side was moving to Denver from the small college town in Washington where i grew up and went to school, on a whim and without knowing anyone. 4 years later and I am head over heels for Colorado :)
Colleen says
EDGE ME!
Sarah P. says
Edge Me! I think living in a house with some major renovations going on (and with walls that i REALLY want to stencil!!) counts as living on the edge!
Rebekah says
EDGE Me! I live on the edge…I don’t know how. But with the stress I feel, I must! :o)
Manasa Pasem says
EDGE ME!
Hoping to finally win this over :-)
Amanda says

EDGE ME! I live life on the edge by having two kids in consecutive years!! One in ’05 and one in ’06!
Rebekah says
EDGE ME! I live on the edge by eating soft cheeses and lunch meats while pregnant!
Ashley Jensen says
EDGE ME! I love things like rollercoaseter and jumping off cliffs into water. I think skydiving would be awesome. Ooh there was this one time my husband (who was my boyfriend at the time) and I decided to follow a police chase which we kind of accidentally ended up in the middle of a raid! The guy hid in a house in a bad side of town and the police chopper was flying above with about 20 cop cars around. Luckily we convinced the cops out on the street we were just looking for a friends house and got lost! It was pretty scary but a fun story to tell. Won’t be doing that again! HA!
Amber N says
Edge Me! I began painting trim on the first day of summer vacation – what was I thinking???? That is as living on the edge as we get around here – lol!
Shane says
EDGE ME! Getting a different frozen yogurt flavor on our half off tuesday trips – so dangerous! You never know what you’ll get!
Jenni says
EDGE ME! I’m pretty boring so I could use a little something to make my life different…
Melanie says
EDGE ME!
The edgiest thing I’ve done lately is just edge my lawn. Oh, excitement. Probably the coolest/edgiest thing I’ve done was go to China and spend 10 days at an art base in the mountains in a panda reserve. Awesome.
Michelle says
Edge me! My husband and I like to travel to off-the-beaten track places, like our honeymoon in Nicaragua!
Rebecca says
edge me! i’m not a risk taker but i have eaten wild jungle pigeon in thailand :)
Renae K. says
Edge me!
Johanna says
Edge me!
Craziest thing I’ve ever done is hiking Humpback Rock at midnight after an ice storm … yikes!
Morgan says
EDGE ME!
And our day to day life isn’t very exciting, but when we travel we usually do some crazy activities, like riding mules to the bottom of the grand canyon or zip lining through the jungle in Puerto Vallarta.
Sara says
EDGE ME!
I’m not really much of a risk taker but I’m pretty happy being boring, haha.
Molly says
Edge me!
I don’t really do things ‘on the edge’. I am considering quitting my finance job to go to grad school for Agri-statistics… but I haven’t been able to bite the bullet.
Leah says
EDGE ME!
Hmmm.. I live on the edge.. I don’t. I think the most “edgy” thing I’ve done is dye my hair pink! :D
Lauren says
EDGE ME! Living on the edge by starting a new company…that’s about it.
Kristin says
EDGE ME!! Life on the edge for me is not worrying about the small stuff and enjoy life!
Debbie @ My Little Mess says
EDGE ME!!
I think the closest thing to living on the edge for me is four wheeling. It’s not just your normal cruise-around-an-open-field-at-10mph four wheeling – I have a sport quad that I like to drive somewhat fast. I actually crashed it earlier this year and thankfully didn’t get too hurt. Just bumps and bruises but you have to watch out for those trees, they just jump out at you!
Wrenaria says
EDGE ME! Having more than one cocktail or glass of wine is about as edgerrific as I get… :p
Yancey@Ysquared Life says
EDGE ME!
The extent of my “edginess” is thrill rides like roller coasters and such, unless you consider painting a dining room a glow in the dark neon green edgy….
Jamie says
EDGE ME!
Holiday says
EDGE ME! I have been eyeing a stencil for my laundry room for months!
Meghann says
EDGE ME!
As for living on the edge…I teach middle school?
Maggie says
EDGE ME!
I don’t live near the edge on a daily basis, but I’m not afraid of taking a chance. I moved halfway around the world eight years ago. Then two years ago moved all the way back, but just six months later made a big (though domestic) move.
Miriam says
EDGE ME! I have three kids under age two, a 21 month old and 4 month old twins. If that’s not living life on the edge (of insanity lol), I don’t know what is!
Cara W says
EDGE ME!
I just ate a Kid Cuisine bug-shaped chicken nuggets/mac & cheese/corn freezer meal for lunch at work. I am 24. Living life on the edge… or, I’m just a mess. :)
Krista says
Edge me! We getting dangerously close to not finishing some pertinent reno’s before our first child is born.
Amy H says
EDGE ME!
Climbing in to bed to read a new book on a Friday night. The neighbor calls at 9pm to invite us over for a drink. Abandoning the book for a late night cocktail!
Emily Cronbaugh says
Edge me!!! My lease is up June 30 and I still don’t have a new place lined up! That is life on the edge!! :)
sarahbclark! says
EDGE ME!
i’m a roller derby chick, so i have fun while other people are trying to knock me down.
Allisson says
EDGE ME! I’m pretty tame and only do things that are well planned out so no living on the edge for me!
