Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Wrapped In Comfort

| By John Petersik | May 21, 2012 | 4,623 Comments

Fab Freebie: Wrapped In Comfort

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

Someone’s about to get more comfortable because random.org just helped us pick them as the winner. That lucky person is… Kristen B (who says a walk on the beach seems to help everything for her). Congrats Kristen!

I realize the title of the giveaway sounds like a cheesy line from a fabric softener commercial, but this prize isn’t about wrapping you in comfort – it’s about wrapping your furniture. Your Ikea furniture to be exact. See, the Australian company Comfort Works had the smart idea of offering slipcovers custom fitted some of Ikea’s popular couch and chair styles. You can get your Ektorp finished in a pinstripe, or your Klippan in a toile or even your Karlstad (holla!) in a heavy duty solid texture. No Ikea furniture to cover? The also to do custom curtains, duvet covers, cushions, pillows, and even custom plush toys.

ComfortWorks Giveaway

  • PRIZE: $350 credit to Comfort Works
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “COMFORT ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … when you’re upset, sad, or stressed – what comforts you most? A good, consoling chat with your mom? A long hot shower? Going out with friends? A big box of Oreos?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 23rd at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Worldwide (woot!)
  • 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 Comfort Works.

    A phone call to my Mama is all it takes. A hot cup of tea while on the phone is extra helpful.

    I love this idea as I really want a couple of IKEA chairs but I’m not too fond of their covers.

    Comfort me! Ok, I know that I am supposed to post about what comforts me, but ya’ll! I’m so stoked to find out about this company! I tried 3 times last year to dye my sofa covers for our Ikea couch and instead of the dreamy dark red that I was going for, I now have a hot pink couch stashed in my basement. It will bring me great comfort to have that thing out of storage and back in use one day with a new cover! :)

    If it’s a weepy type of comfort that’s needed (and there’s been way too much of that this year) then Strawberry cheesecake Greek frozen yogurt (Ben & Jerry’s!), a good book, my kitty cat curled up next to me. But then again, if it’s a p.o.’d type of comfort I need then it’s a good long run complete with boxing motions. Possibly followed by Ben & Jerry’s.
