Fab Freebie: The Royal Treatment

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

According to random.org, the royal treatment is going to Cathleen Pearson (who feels bad for Kate’s balding husband). Congrats!

No, not those royals. The majesty behind this giveaway comes from Royal Design Studio, whose stellar stencils will turn your walls into a stylish statement piece (but not in the way that a certain hat made a statement on a certain princess’ head recently). We’re crazy inspired by all of the stylish patterns and fresh color combos they showcase, and one of you will score $100 towards anything you find on their site. Enough chatter – feast your eyes on these babies (Sherry’s over the moon for the one on the top right) and be sure to head over their website for more eye candy.

Royal Design Giveaway

  • PRIZE: A $100 gift card to Royal Design Studio
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I WANT THE ROYAL TREATMENT!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … fess up, were you totally caught up in Royal Wedding mania? Did you get up early to watch the festivities? Have you been chatting about the dress, kisses, and hats ever since? Or were you on the other end of the spectrum and worked hard to avoid the hubbub?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 11th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in the world!
  • 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 morning for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

    I WANT THE ROYAL TREATMENT!
    I definitely indulged in the Royal Wedding Bliss! April 29 was my birthday, and Will & Kate tried to steal my thunder, so I had a Royal Breakfast to watch the wedding with tea and crumpets, the royal wedding fruit cake (not so tasty after all), big hats and all!

    Favorite part: Kate’s dress was an Alexander McQueen.. I tried to take credit but there’s really no relation!

    I intended to record the wedding so I could watch it with my daughters. But, I messed up the time and missed the whole thing. (I had 40th birthday plans that day.) I thought it would be cool to watch with my oldest who is 11 since I watched Princess Diana get married when I was 11. Maybe we’ll catch it online or something…

    Watched the wedding on Friday night after work Sydney time – perfect! Cable went down that day for the first time ever (weird timing) but managed to watch it on regular free-to-air tv. Loved it! They seemed like a nice, normal couple with genuine affection for each other. What more could you ask for?

    I’ve been a big Prince William watcher since I studied abroad in London in 2003. Once I arrived back to the States, my friend, Gwen, who continued to study here, sent me tabloids with his face on the cover.

    During that time abroad, I visited an old friend who was doing coursework in St. Andrews, where the Prince happened to be attending. Her dorm was next to his, and when the fire alarm went off at 2 a.m., I squinted for a sighting of the Prince. Alas, he was nowhere to be found on the lawn that night!

    It all worked out, though — last year, after many years of royal bonding with Gwen, I ended up marrying her brother!!! She’s still sending me William things, though: Last week, I received the official Harrods mug bearing his and Kate’s photo!

    My husband totally understands ;) So yes, I want the Royal Treatment!

    I WANT THE ROYAL TREATMENT and, although we didn’t have to get up early to watch it here in Australia, I did indeed put aside the time to watch. My husband and I opened a bottle of red and decided to drink it out of the good heirloom crystal instead of our plastic wine glasses in honour of the occasion! Mind you, I got bored pretty quickly after the excitement of her arrival.

    I WANT THE ROYAL TREATMENT!

    I kept my interest on the DL but I have to admit, I was really into the royal wedding stuff. Mostly I really enjoyed seeing the fashion, both the beautiful and the crazy. And “Princess Shinyhair” (as jezebel.com likes to call her) is just so pretty and graceful that I’m fascinated in spite of myself.

    OK, laughing at katemiddletonforthewin.tumblr.com is probably like 60% to blame.

    I WANT THE ROYAL TREATMENT! I didn’t get up to watch the entire wedding (living on the west coast means that it actually made more sense to stay up late rather than get up early), but I did wake up for the kiss live, and then had a get together with a few friends to watch the rest on DVR.

    I was (unfortunately) sick and therefore (fortunately :D) forced to stay at home and wath the wedding. I was totally into it, there’s just something about royal weddings… ;) I loved Kate’s dress (and her sister’s!), but all in all I think Victoria’s (the Swedish crown princess) wedding was a bit warmer and romantic.

    I am not a kind of person who is getting over-excited over celebtities/royals/sport stars etc. And I didn’t went crazy over the royal wedding … not until I woke up on Friday morning thinking “Woow today they are geting married” That was a blast. I went to work so happy, as if I was going to the wendding. Then during my lunch break (ho-hum realy extended lunch break, I know i know baaad girl) I watched it and it was wonderful!

    I didn’t actually watch the wedding (but really wanted to), but I searched all over the web to see all of the dresses and details. I thought the best-dressed guest of all of the royals was the princess from Holland.

    I WANT THE ROYAL TREATMENT! I love those marvelous walls, and it was a pity but I could not follow all the wedding live since the Internet broke for few minutes, the provider is British Telecom, je je, but I did when I got home and turned on the TV. It was a very elegant broadcasting, but magazines also gave more insight to it!
