*** 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
no living on the edge for me….to big a chicken!
Theresa Kennedy says
EDGE ME!
Either adding or subtracting plans from my schedule at the last minute is about as spontaneous as I get — I’m kinda lame. But I would love to try skydiving!
Nichole says
Edge me! My version of living on the edge is being married to a man in the Air Force. He leaves at the drop of a hat and I never know how long he will be gone- but we make it work! ;)
Jessica says
EDGE ME! I’m in need of a new adventure, so maybe I’m just inching my way toward the edge now…
Debbie L says
Edge me! We are living life on the edge by having a puppy and moving into a new house at the same time.
Corrie says
EDGE ME!!!
I live on the edge by staying up late sometimes. I get up super early, 4:30-5 am, so staying up late is a bit of my rebellion!
I would love, love, love to win this! I want to stencil my kitchen table!
Lisa says
EDGE ME!
Amanda says
Edge me! I am so not a risk taker-I’ve always wanted a tatoo-but I’m too much of a wuss to actually pull the trigger!
Jess says
Edge Me!
Uhh, I got nothin. :)
Rossie says
EDGE ME! I’m about to quit my day job and be an artist full time…livin’ on the edge! I would so love to stencil my new studio!
Luke says
Edge Me!
We, like you, are not the must edge-living people, but stenciling a room might just push us over that edge!!
Holly Haynes says
EDGE ME! We need a MAJOR rennovation to our bedroom and would love to add a little “edge” to it!
Nina says
EDGE ME!!
I live vicariously through my husband’s adventures. He’s big into surfing, snowboarding and skateboarding.
Shannon says
EDGE ME! We just bought our first house… pretty normal stuff, but right now it feels like we’re living on the edge!
Jill says
EDGE ME!
This is definitely a hard one. I’m about the least edgy person I know. Water sports (attempting to water ski, tubing) are about as crazy as I get!
Camille says
EDGE ME!!! Well, I may be a bit of an adrenaline junky. Two of my most favorite adventures includes skydiving and rappelling down the Swiss alps.
theresa says
Edge me!
I don’t count calories or check my bank account all that often. Ohh yeah we’re crazy over here!
Colleen says
Edge Me!! Hmmm a just turned three year old, a 22 mos old and bambino #3 on the way in two months is pretty close to living on the edge, right? ;)
CeCe says
Edge me!
I need that ginko!
Ashlie says
EDGE ME! After being an HGTV, Pinterest and YHL junkie for quite some time- I think I’m (just about) brave enough to attempt my first DIY project to our house we just moved into Mid-May… Taking down ugly wallpaper in a tiny bathroom. I’m scared but keep telling myself that people do this ALL THE TIME- and I fancy myself as a somewhat smart individual. I’ll OWN that wallpaper!
Louisem says
Edge Me
Doing a “Swim with Sting Ray’s” excursion.
Megan says
EDGE ME!
I went skydiving last weekend totally out of the blue. That was pretty edgy for me.
Leigh Healy says
EDGE ME!!!
CarrieK says
EDGE ME! Love rollercoasters and zip-lining, would NEVER consider skydiving. Guess that’s where my living on the edge runs out!
MeganR says
Edge me! I’m thinking about living on the edge by suggesting to my husband that we stencil ginkgoes all over out bedroom!!
Sophia says
EDGE ME!
We’re trying to do more “on the edge” stuff.. hopefully we’ll do a spontaneous trip this summer, which is as about on the edge as we get.
Laura says
Edge me! I (try to) teach high schoolers English and Spanish every day…sometimes a perilous endeavor!
Courtney Edwards says
EDGE ME!
Vonda says
Edge Me!
Ha, if I won this, it may actually ‘edge me’ into a corner to redo my laundry room! I want to stencil the ugly concrete floor.
Wendy says
EDGE ME!
Oh, I totally live life on the edge. When we travel for vacations, we don’t book hotel rooms on our route. We just drive until we find a hotel with a vacancy and spend the night there. Total risk-takers here. :)
Jen says
Edge me!
I’ve gotten whitewater rafting on class IV rapids
Emma says
EDGE ME!
I live on the edge by using NO CLEANING SUPPLIES when cleaning my home – only water, baking soda and some vinegar! What can I say, I’m eco-daring. :)
Salena Santos says
“Edge Me!”
Megan W says
EDGE ME! I’m a stay at home mom, so most of my crazy days are over, or when I can find a babysitter. I guess the craziest thing I’m (hopefully) about to do is have our second daughter at home (I’m two weeks overdue). To my husband and I, homebirth isn’t that crazy, but it’s pretty far out there for a lot of people.
I love your website, and I have to tell you…Clara and my first daughter could be secret cousins or something. They’re only a week apart in age, and it’s fun to hear updates about her :o)
Devon says
EDGE ME! I do order the “extra-chocolately” hot chocolate when I go to the local coffee shop!
Erin says
EDGE ME!
Today I left the house without any diapers for my 2 and 21 month old children…pretty edgy even if it was an accident :)
Suzy says
EDGE ME!
I lived life on the edge this weekend by reinstalling Windows 7 on my desktop PC. Go me! :D
Meggan says
Edge Me! I have a fear of heights, but I’ve crossed parasailing, ziplining, skydiving and hot air balooning off of my bucket list! Not bad for someone who gets wobbly knees on bridges!
Andrea says
Edge me! We only stay one step ahead on trips. Last year we went to Istanbul with a sense of what we wanted to do and a room for three days. We were in Turkey for two weeks and planned as we went (and had a great time!).
Sherry L says
EDGE ME!!!
Stacia Reagan says
Edge me! I am tame and have always been . . . sorry no real adventures.
Laura B says
Edge Me! I would love to try a stencil in my current junk room, soon to be guest bedroom.
jennifer williams says
EDGE ME!!!! I plan to live on the edge by attempting my very first stencil project in the bathroom when I hopefully win this contest!!!!
Molly says
Edge Me! Sometimes I wash my darks and lights together…that’s how I (sometimes) live life on the edge! :)
Valerie says
EDGE ME!
We have been traveling (for my husband’s job) almost every weekend for the past 5 months with our 2 year old and baby in tow. Don’t really think it’s living on the edge, but certainly is crazy. :)
mands says
edge me!
i really don’t live my life on the edge at all these days – i would say the edgiest it gets at 8.5 months preg is realizing that rita’s is about to close and seeing if we can make it there before they do to get a misto!
thanks for another great giveaway!
Andie G says
Edge me! Not too edgy around here…although my 3 little boys like to live on the edge, especially at the playground!
Rosemary C. says
EDGE ME! Try going on a road trip with 3 kids who get realllly carsick. I don’t need to live on the edge more than that!
Maureen K. says
Edge me! I live with a toddler. That’s pretty edgy, since I’ve seen them compared to a t-rex and a zombie in the last two days. If that’s not enough, I ride my bike on Texas country roads. That’s so taking your life in your hands!
Sarah R. says
