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.
- PRIZE: $500 to spend at Lamps Plus.com
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “LAMP ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: …your favorite type of holiday light. Do you love the white glimmer of a Christmas tree in your living room? The over-the-top glow of a house decked out in colorful bulbs on every surface? Or the warm crackle of a fire in your fireplace?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Dec 19th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not able to vend things beyond the US – more on that here. This giveaway is open to the United States.

To me, Christmas is for the children. This is why my husband and I climb the peaks of our house to put up bright, colorful LED lights for the whole neighborhood to see. The kids (mine and others’) absolutely love it.
I won’t lie, it makes me smile every time we drive up as well.

LAMP ME!
White lights on a Christmas tree with all the other lights out in a room is such a nostalgic feeling for me. And since we just moved into our first home, and don’t have a tree of our own yet, we’re so excited to travel back to our families and sit by the tree!

Amber says
LAMP ME!
One of my most treasured Christmas decorations is the ceramic Christmas tree with little plastic bulb and bird “lights”. My late grandma made it and etched her name into the base. Since our real tree is in the living room, this little ceramic tree makes our family room feel Christmas-y.
chrissy says

I’d say it’s a tie between the glow of a fire in a fireplace and the cute little white light string lights that i have strewn around :)

I love my christmas tree all lit up. It annoys the heck out of me when I come home from work and my hubbie hasn’t plugged it in yet!!

LAMP ME! I love the light, sound and smell of a good fire. Our current home doesn’t have a fireplace though, and our “fireplace” DVD just doesn’t give the same ambiance…
