I'd love to win this for my parents. Their 30th Wedding Anniversary is this July and what more than to have a re-designed bedroom for them. I was JUST talking to my brothers about a combined gift for them, and what could be better?? We pulled out old pictures of us as kids and found one of us (all five of us) sleeping in the bed with my parents when we were little. (My uncle who was visiting at the time took the shot) Anyways, we looked at it and noticed that they had the same hideous bedroom set..Think early 80's oak one piece headboard with BRASS handles..yucky..and they have Matching dressers! (cringe)
Anyways..Best of luck to all.
Chris you are the bomb.com!
I would love to win for my wedding! I am getting married in August and we are young and just starting out so our wedding has a VERY small budget. I wanted an outdoor wedding so bad but everyone tells me that it could rain and it would ruin everything so we are having our wedding at a rented hall above the local firehouse :( while the hall isnt terrible, there are several trophy cases and this section on the wall where a partition comes out. they arent huge chunks, im thinking maybe the head table could go in front of one of those cases and we could make something as a backdrop but im clueless as to what. its a vintage nautical themed wedding... more shabby chic then cheesy lifesavers, etc. id LOVE for you to design my hall... it'd be my dream :)
This is an awesome give away!

I absolutely LOVE your blog. It's saved under 'my favorites' and it's one of the firts things I check everyday.

We moved here almost a year ago (I'm in tacoma, wa)and I'm still needing some serious decorating.
No blog - but my email is glcgehring@comcast.net. Thanks for your great ideas (and I'm not saying that to kiss butt :) )Laura G

Tara
Oh, Chirs! I hope I win. You and I share the same taste, beacy laid back style. I could use your help. I am stuck.
My house needs serious help! Have lived here 28 years and decorating is not my forte. Just what people give us or buy what we like but it looks like a hodge-podge!
Would love some ideas for the DR!
That would be great! We just moved into a new house that has (in my opinion) no personality. I could use the help!
Ooh! I would love to have a new plan. I love to follow your blog, and can't wait for all those fun summer projects. This would be a perfect time to receive a fabulous room design plan from you.
Oh!! How exciting! I would love to win...fingers crossed. =)

I would love to win. My living room is in a rut. I've tried rearranging it, but always end up back where I started.
This would be an absolute gem for my mom. Don't get me wrong, my casa needs it in many places but I'd love love love to be able to share your expertise with her for my parents 1970s 2 story. The pic on this entry is perfect because they have a room with a window seat that I've been racking my brain with ideas on how to update.
Even if I don't win I still continue to get the best inspiration from you - keep up the good work!!
It would be great to get new ideas on how to decorate my son's bedroom. Hope I win!
Thank you for the giveaway!
Oh please I need your help! My Master is lacking some serious personality. It's mixed furnishings have no cohesiveness, it's crying for attention. Our house is new and I haven't touched the Master Bdrm. I've lost steam and need some inspriation!
PICK ME PICK ME!!! My family room is just aweful and I don't have the talent to make it better, nor do I have the budget. Or choose the sunroom, it could be so fabulous but I haven't a clue as to how to get there. If you love a challenge, pick me. You are the master and only you could make these spaces better!
Oh sure, count me in! I'd love to win this!
That is exactly what my family room needs! I've been making progress lately with it, but your help with pulling all the details together would be just wonderful.
Thanks for the opportunity...your blog and woodworking skills are so inspiring!
I forgot to leave my e-mail: decats5@aol.com.
