***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.
- 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.

LAMP ME! I like the big old school colored lights, and I LOVE tacky Christmas lights on other people’s houses! ;)
Kim says
LAMP ME!
I love, love, love the dangling snowflake lights that twinkle…but alas, they are no where to be found.
erin says
LAMP ME . . . I like the soft white lights on my tree. I don’t like any of the bright color lights. They get tacky pretty quickly.
Sarah says
LAMP ME!
I was going to go white lights, but then I read “warm crackle of a fire”. Hands down crackling fire, even yummy scented candles!
Samantha says
LAMP ME!
My favorite lights are classic mini colored lights on my tree. I loved the twinkle ones as a kid.

KatieF says
LAMP ME!
The glow of traditional white lights is my favorite!
heidi says
LAMP ME!
I love all white lights. Although, I have a soft spot for the large colored lights of my youth.
Torie says
LAMP ME…I’m sort of a Christmas light grinch. Crooked Christmas lights make me crazy! But I love a white lit Christmas tree. And I stare in awe at the perfect Christmas light displays…as long as they’re straight!
meg says
Lamp me! I love a good neon sign. Maybe I don’t. I love light from the fireplace!

Lamp Me!! I love colorful lights on the Christmas tree….nothing makes me happier than the way they glow :)
Christy Niebaum says
LAMP ME!
Honestly, nothing is making me happier this holiday season than the glow of the precious mini-LED USB tree on my desk at work. My secret Santa gave it to me and it’s absolutely adorbs.
BUT I also love the glow of our LED Christmas lights on the mantel at home. They reflect off the ornaments I have strewn about the mantel and the effect is very glowy and jolly.
Krista says
“LAMP ME!”

LAMP ME!!
I love the look of white lights and green boughs both outside and inside on the mantle.
Nichole says
LAMP ME!
My husband is trying to be Clark Griswold, but he doesn’t read this, so instead of saying the thousands of LED lights on my roof, I will give my real answer of fire- and candle-light.
Danae says
Lamp me! I insist on leaving the tree lights on and the curtain open when we’re gone in the evening so I can see them when we get home. LOVE Christmas!
Gina says

I love white lights on the xmas tree, house and mantel!!!

Lamp Me!
I am partial to the slow twinkle of my white tree lights. The boyfriend likes what he calls “garish Christmas.” So there has been some compromise this year!

LAMP ME!
I love the small white lights on the Christmas tree that cast a soft glow over our ever-growing ornament collection (and our cats under the tree messing up the tree skirt give it an extra special look ;) ).

LAMP ME! I love the white lights around the tree and a fire in the fireplace.
Brandee says
LAMP ME!

LAMP ME!!! I love the flickering light from a good smellng candle.
