***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
Random.org sifted through the 9000+ entries and came up with our winner. She is… Jenn (whose favorite number is 13 because of The Offspring song “Pretty Fly for a White Guy” and the lyric “He went for a tattoo yeah, he’s getting it done. He asked for a 13 but they drew a 31″). Congrats Jenn – looks like 13 ended up being pretty lucky for you this week!
Happy Memorial Day! We’re spending the holiday with our family, but wanted to drop in with today’s giveaway. And let’s keep the counting that we did in the title going all the way to five hundred! Because someone’s getting $500 to spend on FLOR this week. Huzzah! You probably know FLOR as a source for modular rugs, which means you can make a rug, runner, or even wall-to-wall carpet by assembling any combination of their square carpet tiles. They’re great for covering bare floors and are know for their cheery colors, fun patterns, and stylish imagery (their catalog is always good eye candy). So start counting out carpet tiles and crossing your fingers that those five-hundred beans find their way to you.

My lucky number has always been 8… although my previous license plate had three 8’s and I still had a collision! Maybe I should give it a rethink.

Jennifer Thomas says
I’d really like you to FLOR ME! and announce my name as winner of 500 beans…that would be awesome. My lucky number growing up was always 11-11. Loved the date..loved the time..always made a game out of making a wish at 11:11 at night. Upon meeting my future husband…while we were out on a date, we decided to guess each other’s b-days. I had no clue so I decided to say “Nove 11th” for a complete random guess..and he was FLORed (couldn’t resist the pun!) and actually thought I had cheated some how…talked to his mom ?!?!? I hadn’t ..it was just my lucky number becoming even more luck-ier than I thought. Originally I wanted to be married on 11-11 but that was before I knew my future husband’s b-day would be that day – and it’s great..he’s a teacher and it’s Veteran’s Day…so every year he gets his b-day off!
Side Note: Love the blog. Esp. the painting kitchen cabinets tutorial. Don’t know how you get it all done and stay sane some times (we have 4 kiddos — and I’ve been painting 6 cabinets for 3 mo. now..and I’m still not done). But just received my FLOR catalog for perhaps an entry way rug..so when I saw this contest I figured I’d better take a shot.
Thanks,
~Jennifer
