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.

    I love a nice old farmhouse modestly decorated…with a horse drawn sleigh in the front yard and candles in the windows.

    I can’t get enough of white twinkle lights. I wrap my 8ft. tree with about 10 strands to get the glowing effect that I love!

    When it comes to lights, especially outside lights, I’m a traditionalist. None of those chasing or flashing lights for me. No, just the simplicity of perfectly positioned strand of lights.

    I do, however, like white or multicolored of those. :)

    I love traditional white lights. No other lights on in the living room except the glow of the Christmas tree and mantel lights. Love it!

    Lamp me! My favorite holiday lights are the excessively decorated houses. It is hard not to be happy when looking at them.

    Lamp me. I love how my parents spotlight the wreaths on their old country farmhouse. The most warm, inviting look at Christmastime.

    Not answering your question at all, but just wanted to put it our there that my mom and dad recently downsized into a builder bland house for their retirement, and have been lusting at the Lamps Plus catalog wanting to spruce up their place. If I win, I’m planning to give this to them for Christmas!
