Your Picks. Your Place. Updates // $100 HomeGoods Giveaway!!

This is it! The final week of Apartment Guide's Your Picks. Your Place. Sweepstakes. I can't believe it. It went as quickly as the summer did. Last week Apartment Guide announced the winner of Round Three - Home Office. I was thrilled to see my blogger friend Jamielyn of I Heart Naptime won! Yay! Congrats!!

Apartment Guide also announced the two $250 winners for the third round. Congrats folks!

....................................................

Take a moment and head on over to Your Picks. Your Place. to vote and you will be automatically entered to win. It's that simple.

This is what my board looks like on the site ...

As promised, this is where I'm shamelessly asking begging you to vote for me! (I feel like I'm running for class president or something.)  There are some other fabulous bloggers participating and I don't think I actually win anything other than bragging rights, so winning isn't a huge deal, but it would still be pretty amazing.

 Your votes for my boards are beyond appreciated.

....................................................

You can also visit the three other fabulous bloggers who are participating in this project...

Jamiely from I Heart Naptime

Diane from In My Own Style

Maryann from Domestically Speaking

From now through August 14th I will share two more design boards (Office and Bedroom) at which time you will be able to vote on those as well. Remember you can vote once a day, so do expect a couple reminders here and there. I promise to keep it to a minimum. 

So head on over and get voting!

I can't thank you enough for your support and your votes during this sweepstakes. 

You are amazing! Thank you!!!

Your Picks. Your Place. Sweepstakes :: Round 4 - Bedroom

Say it isn't so ... the final round of Apartment Guide's Your Picks. Your Place. Sweepstakes is upon us. I'm sure you are sick of me talking about this, but I'm a little sad. It's been so much fun! 

The final round of boards are focus around the bedroom. I was giving the challenge of designing an industrial loft inspired space. Here's my plan...

It's defiantly the most modern space I've designed for this challenge, but I think the bold colors and fun duvet cover keep the space alive and somewhat cozy.


Speaking of the duvet cover, that was my starting point for designing this space. I love all the colors mixed in with soft neutrals. It gave me an amazing opportunity to pull in so many wonderful and bright colors. It's defiantly a space that will put a smile on your face.

Your Picks. Your Place. Sweepstakes :: Round 3 - Office

Can you believe it's already Round #3 of Apartment Guide's Your Picks. Your Place. Sweepstakes!? Time sure flies!

I have to admit I've been pretty excited for this particular round. My southern bungalow home office board is probably one of my favorites, if not my absolute favorite. Here it is...

It's defiantly a touch on the girly side, but the pinks could be easily swapped out for blues and you boys would be in business! Though, 'girly' or not, I actually love the color pink.

This design started off with that gorgeous botanical print. I actually stumbled across that print on the super fab blog Making It Lovely and instantly feel in love with it!  From there, I pulled the room the rest of the room. That pink chair, the drafting desk, and the chandelier! Some day I would actually love to bring this room to life. Wouldn't that be amazing!?

Anyway, I really hope you like it as much as I do. If you do, be sure to sure to give it a few votes. If you really love it, you can vote for it everyday over the next two weeks.

I'm really hoping one of you will be the lucky $10,000 winner! Fingers crossed!
