*** This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
We’ve got two names to announce as the random winners this week and they are… Eileen Marie (who lives on the edge by teaching on the “mean streets of Chicago”) and Kristin M (who is the mom to a “crazy 2 year old” – which is a life on the edge that we can relate to). Congrats ladies! And for everyone else, Cutting Edge Stencils added a 20% discount code – YHL20 – that’s good through Sunday. Sweet!
Who wants to jump on the wall stencil bandwagon with us (remember when Sherry spent 14 hours stenciling our office last October? Well how does a $50 nudge sound? Because the folks at Cutting Edge Stencils are gonna give two of you a gift card that’ll cover just about any stencil in their catalog – from florals and geometrics to damasks and graphic shapes. They’ve even got a new collection of stencils created by Design Star winner Kim Myles (we especially love her gingko leaf design on the right). And is the one on the top left giving anyone else Jeff Lewis vibes?
- PRIZE: $50 to Cutting Edge Stencils
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “EDGE ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … how you live life on the edge. I ask this somewhat sarcastically since life on the edge for us usually includes eating a second dessert or negotiating a good yard sale deal. But if you’ve really done (or regularly do) something thrilling or outrageous, we’d love to hear about it.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 6th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
- DISCOUNT: 20% off with code YHL20 through 6/17
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Cutting Edge Stencils.

EDGE ME!
Danica H says
EDGE ME : )!!!!!!!!!!
Shannon Burke says
Edge Me! I think I try something out there each year – skydiving, mud runs, whitewater rafting…still no craziness this year yet, but I’m sure I’ll come up with something. :)
kari macleod says
Edge Me! I love traveling, especially road trips, but don’t do enough of it with three young girls…
Harini says
EDGE ME!
As a working mom, I think living on the edge is everyday routine! But otherwise, I think the craziest thing I might have done is visiting the Rainbow bridge, Tokyo, Japan in the dead of winter and with heavy snow showers AND walking end to end on the 798 m bridge. That or perhaps, that one time that I sky dived with hubby.
Kim Early says
EDGE ME. I would have to say as a single parent and home owner, living on the edge is trying to take on the DIY projects and repair projects on my own. Just this past weekend the dryer was making LOTS of loud noises. I decided I could take it apart and fix it myself. I was able to determine the broken piece, ordered it on the internet and hopefully when it arrives, it will be fixed. Cross your fingers.
Kim says
Edge me! PLEASE
Shannon says
EDGE ME! I live life on the edge by riding my Harley. I have 2 bikes my husband has built for me. Im only 5’4″ and most harleys are built for men. Love the wind in my hair.
Karly Watkins says
EDGE ME! I live life on the edge by, you know, eating food after the expiration date, staying up late on weeknights, crossing the street outside of the crosswalks… I’m crazy.
Elizabeth says
EDGE ME!
I am living on the edge by going rafting this weekend even though it terrifies me. :)
Thank you!
Sara says
EDGE ME!
I’m not a super risky girl. Probably the most risky thing I’ve done lately is sneak into a college football stadium while on vacation.
Eleanor Rodway says
Edge Me! I pretty much play it safe 24/7 – I’ve got a 17 month old – not freaking out when he eats dirt at the park is about as edgy as I get
Camille says
EDGE ME! Lately my husband and I have been canoeing and kayaking!
Lauren says
EDGE ME! I live life on the edge…especially when I picked up my whole life and moved to NYC in 10 days :)!
Amber W says
EDGE ME! I spend my weekends scuba diving, with sharks. A little dangerous, but so tranquil.

Edge Me!! I guess I need to add a little edge in my life.

EDGE ME!!

EDGE ME!
No livin’ on the edge here. But maybe with a new stencil…

Edge me!!
My version of living on the edge is moving into a new home on Friday and getting a new puppy on Saturday. Exhausting!!
mariela says
EDGE ME!
Moving far for a job offer was living on the edge for me.
Sara says
Edge me!
We painted the walls in our apartment Silver Sage by Restoration Hardward without testing it! We had never even seen the color in person beforehand! It looks AAAAAAMAZING. Overthinking is not the way to go in design endeavors, or so I’m learning!
Bethany says
EDGE ME! I wouldn’t say that I do dangerous things, but I do exciting things when I can. Recent adventures include kayaking in a Puerto Rican biobay at night, swimming with whale sharks at the GA aquarium, and gutting my master bathroom for a total renovation. Plumbing and electrical takes chutzpah. Chutzpah and ibuprofen.
Jenna says
edge me. I once went sky-diving and have been trying to convince my husband to do it with me for the last 2 years. no luck.
Stephanie says
EDGE ME! My life is pretty tame, no edgy things to report!
Jennifer I. says
EDGE ME! I always try to live on the edge…whether its something as small as trying new foods or horseback riding in the ocean…I love to try new things and take risks. I live my life with no regrets!
Ashley P says
EDGE ME!
I live in NYC so sometimes I feel like just crossing the street or riding with some crazy cabbie counts as living on the edge!
Megan says
EDGE ME!!!
I am a mother of two young babies. So my edge… is staying up past 11 :) In my prior life I trained horses and that can get pretty “edgy.”
Carrie says
EDGE ME!
Kristen says
EDGE ME! I’ve stenciled two walls in my house and I’m so in love with those rooms. Cutting Edge Stencil is the best! That’s me living on the edge: risky design choices!

EDGE ME! …by running crazy races like the Tough Mudder, and then attending friends’ weddings right after!

EDGE ME!

I guess I’m living on the edge by having our 9th baby in October? That’s edgy, no?
Katie says
Edge me!
I’m not too edgy, but I do enjoy a good thrill. I LOVE rollercoasters, and did a tandum skydive a few years back. I’ve always wanted to try hang gliding…
Abby says
EDGE ME! I’m not much of a risk taker, but I am taking a pretty big step very soon…my fiance and I are buying our first home TODAY!!

Edge me- I live on the edge by taking two kids to Target and hoping I’ll spend less than $20 and only buy what I went there for.
JG says
EDGE ME! Love to stencil!
erica says
