Fab Freebie: Christmas Lights

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

This week’s early Christmas present is going to… Nancy (who says she “could certainly use some new lighting” and her favorite holiday glow “has to be my fireplace.”) Congrats Nancy!

As much as we love holiday lights, indoor lighting is something that you stare at every day of the year. So if you don’t love your lighting situation, this is one way to “dude, get on that” without spending any cash. See, recently we were voted one of Lamps Plus’ top home blogs of 2012 (how flattering!) and it came with a $500 shopping spree prize… but you know we don’t take freebies or swag, so the folks at Lamps Plus kindly agreed that we could pass that $500 credit to one of you! We’ve been fans of theirs for a while now since they seem to have about a million options (their chandeliers even popped up in our book a few times) so this week’s winner should have no trouble finding something to spend their light-loot on if they win.

    LAMP ME!

    In winter, I move a strand of paper lantern type lights in from the porch to my fireplace mantle. It’s gorgeous and seems really festive.

    LAMP ME! At our house, it’s warm white lights inside and out. I do love the bright ensemble on other people’s homes tho!

    Lamp me. I love a fire in the fireplace – with hot chocolate and Christmas music playing at the same time, of course. :)

    Lamp me – I like seeing all the different types of decorations this time of year. Bright lights, white lights, lots, or just a few, we like them all!

    Lamp me!!! I wish I had a porch so I could hang garland and white lights on my porch railing. That’s one of my favorite looks.

    “LAMP ME!” I love the soft glow of candles in the windows and soft white lights on the mantle and Christmas tree. It’s a family tradition.

    Lamp me (please)! I love those big multicolor bulbs we all had in the ’70s, but those suckers got HOT! Still love them, but love my house more!

    I love plain white Christmas lights! I think they look so elegant, and they don’t compete with the tree and all my red ornaments.
