Fab Freebie: Talent Show

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

This week’s randomly selected winner is… Sheilagh (who’s talents lie in “all aspects of art and being crafty!”). Congrats!

One of the most exciting parts of doing a project is getting to share the sweat-inducing results when it’s done. And that’s the idea behind HouseTalent, a free site where you can easily upload before pics, progress shots, and after photos of the DIYs that are going on in your digs. The friendly interface makes browsing other peoples’ accomplishments just as easy as uploading your own inspiration – from small furniture builds to major room overhauls. And to help you get some of your projects ready to share, HouseTalent is giving away a $250 gift card to World Market this week. Speaking of the world, this giveaway is available internationally – so if World Market doesn’t ship to you, you can select a local alternative for your gift card.

    I’m Talented!!!

    I am pretty awesome at turning simple kids party ideas into extravagant themed parties that blow everyone away; from creative invites and thank you notes, to decor, activities and food.

    I’m Talented! I have an amazing ability to make up songs on the spot when I’m hanging out with my family, songs specifically about my daughter and my dog.

    I like to think I’M TALENTED, but can’t always convince the others in the household. I can create all kinds of mess in the wake of painting, sewing, cooking, baking… I clean it up, I do, it’s just they don’t understand my process.

    I have a talent for keeping things organized, whether it’s my home or school work or financials. My friends seem to thing this is super odd and consider me kinda a freak, though they never hesitate to ask for help with their projects lol!

    I love to sing (karaoke)! I’d like to think I’m pretty good at it, but I’m no American Idol.

    I can make an excellent pig noise. Not your typical snort through the noise, but it’s more of a throaty grunt. I have met maybe 2 other people who have been able to do it too, so I consider it a rare talent :)
