***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
We often daydream about having the iconic white Christmas here in Virginia (which is extremely rare in these parts) but after this weekend’s crazy snowstorm it looks like we might actually have one. Or at least a whatever-color-you-call-half-melted-dirty-snow-that-hangs-around-for-a-week Christmas.
But as of today we think you’ll be dreaming of a holiday with a bit more color thanks to Glidden. So yes, as Sunny, Lacey, Travis and Nicole guessed at the end of last week’s giveaway, this week’s prize of “one of our all time favorite items” is indeed paint. In fact, Glidden’s got a gallon for a handful of you in your choice of color and finish so there’s plenty to go around.
And if we haven’t already made it abundantly clear in over two years of blogging: we love Glidden’s colors. From Gentle Tide in our bedroom and kitchen to Sand White in our living room and guest bedroom, we’ve got Glidden’s fantastic hues on almost every wall of our house. And even though we’re sad that some of those colors didn’t make the cut when Glidden revamped their line earlier this year, we totally dig how user-friendly the new lineup of colors are (they even suggest complementary accent hues on the back of each paint swatch). Plus you can easily browse inspiration rooms and coordinating color schemes both in-store and on their web site and they offer tester bottles with built-in brushes for every color. It doesn’t get much more convenient that that.
But enough jabbering. It’s time for the entry details:
- PRIZE: Each winner will receive a voucher to be redeemed at their neighborhood Home Depot for one gallon of Glidden paint in any color and finish of their choice.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CAN ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us what colors are getting you into the holiday spirit this season. Is it the traditional red and green pairing? Unconventional schemes like lavender and silver? Or do you really just have your heart set on that white Christmas concept?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 23rd at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: FIVE!
- PRIZE SHIPS: United States only
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

Aimee says
CAN ME!!
While I’d love to have a White Christmas, for decor, I go back and forth. Red and green are so homey, but the modern variations are gorgeous. I do love the limey, sparkly greens especially.

i’m a fan of purple and gold this year…a recent trip to the decorative christmas aisle in target inspired my decorating this year. i’d like to extend my use of purple from our christmas decorating to a permanent fixture in our dining room!

silver is my color this year. i love how it sparkles in the candle/tree light. if i could temporarily cover my house in non-messy glitter, i would.

In our old place, our Christmas colors had been bronze, red and silver/white. It gave a great rustic feeling to our mid century modern styled townhouse. Our new house is much more clean-lined and modern, so rustic doesn’t quite go as far. Our budget doesn’t all for it this year, but hopefully next year I’ll be able to play up the silver/white and downplay the bronze for a more cohesive feeling through out the house.

This year, my decor has focused on natural colors and elements. I used pinecones in vases, cranberries and trimmings from our tree to decorate my house. I have some color in my candleholders (glass with red poinsettas painted on) and I’ve put the decorations on my ivory table runner.
Holly says
CAN ME!
This year we bought our first home and the great room is painted in shades of gray with black, white and yellow accents. I decided that I didn’t want anything too obnoxious by way of Christmas decorations so we went with a gray/black/white/red Christmas color palette and we love love LOVE it! It blends in with our existing decor and we had fun picking the new and old ornaments to display on our little tree. We even used a YHL idea and made some feather filled glass balls!
Jermaine D says
CAN ME! This year we are going for the traditional red and green, with lime green and gold accents.
Jamie says

Kim says
CAN ME!
I love the traditional red, gold, white, and dark green colors for Christmas decorating. While I’d love a white Christmas, that is pushing it down here in the Deep South. :)
Nicole says
“CAN ME”! please! just bought a house and can’t wait to paint the living room an awesome gray color:)
Joanne says
CAN ME!!!
I love silver and red. I realized that all of my christmas cards this year are in those colors :P
Maggie W says
CAN ME!!!
I am definately digging the limey green this Christmas!! I feel like it is everywhere! Paired with gold and a little bit of red, I don’t think there is any better way to celebrate the holidays!
Britiney says
CAN ME!!
My holiday is pretty much traditional red, green, white, although I completely LOVED your orange and green scheme. I could really use some free paint. I’m getting ready to repaint my kitchen and attached family room. Thanks for a chance to win!!
Natalie says
CAN ME! I am really into plum right now, though I haven’t seem many plum & silver/gold Christmas schemes yet – maybe I’ll have to do that next year! This year, my husband and I just bought a house and we have too many home renovation tasks hanging over our heads to want to put energy into a tree. We’ve used these 3 snow days in Virginia to paint and get some of those chores done. BUT, we still have more painting to do and would love to use Glidden paint!
Kelly S says
CAN ME! I am totally digging silver and sage green this Christmas.
The Tiny Homestead says
CAN ME!
this year I’ve decorated a lot with silver and red. looks great.
Sara B. says
Can me!
I like all of the holiday colors, but I’m partial to the traditional ones. Our tree is a mish-mash of homemade decoration from my husband’s and my own childhoods.
CarMaj says
Can Me!!
Love that punchy green with some silver sparkle and a modern blue… and of course everyone’s fav… white!
Happy Holidays!!
AlzyPal says
Can Me!!
Since my living & dinning room accent colors are teal and light lime green, my Christmas accents this year are teal and silver (like the grab-bag of bulb ornaments from Target in different shades of teal/silver/pearl white, and those snowflake ornaments like you guys have in silver).
Cynthia says
CAN ME!
I’m a traditionalist..red and green all the way:)

CAN ME!!

Laura says
CAN ME!!
I decided this year to go for a less is more theme. I focused the decorating on a pretty simple swag outside and something festive on our fireplace mantle. For the tree I went crazy with tons of white light and then red berry picks. So when it came time to buy a wrapping paper that would go along with the less is more idea I decided on two rolls: a red houndstooth and a black one. Then I got a roll of red bridal wired ribbon and a black one. The black paper gets the red ribbon and the red paper gets the black ribbon. I was worried it would look a little goth, but it turned out great. Its a nice graphic pop under the tree and fits in simply with the mimimalist idea I’m going for this season. So I guess red, white, black and green are my colors this year.
Donna says
CAN ME!
I like a very traditional red and gold theme, with greenery thrown in with boughs and pine cones.
Trista says
CAN ME!!
I’m loving the traditional red and green for my first Christmas as a wife.
Amanda says
CAN ME!
Two years ago after Christmas I bought a TON of beautiful turquoise/teal & silver ornaments. They looked really good in our old house, but we moved this year and I painted the living room a very pale yellow…and our tree totally clashes! I’m ready to re-paint it anyway, so I could use some free paint!
Autumn Tao says
CAN ME. I’m a snow-lover, so Christmas is always about white snow. Lots of snowmen decorate my home!
Mrs. Howard says
CAN ME! I can’t wait until spring so I can paint the largest room in our house, including the trim!
Using Glidden colors, I have been digging Candy Apple, Safari Green, and Swiss Coffee :-)In regular colors, that’s red, sage, and champagne :-)
kate says
“Can Me”
I love the traditional red & green, also with a little silver and lime green dispersed throughout. I’m all about whimsical “Dr. Seuss” hues if you will, and all of my packages are wrapped in stripes or big bold polka dots in the above colors!
Christen says
Can me! I decorate with jewel tones: turquoise, red, bright pink, silver, and lime green. It sounds like a crazy bunch of colors, but it really does work!
Tiffany T. says
CaN mE! Hey my fiancee and I close on our first house Wednesday the 23! I’m really into the whole green with yellow christmas colors. Plus shiny accents like sequins and silver. We could paint our already seafoam green house with a yellow door..yaaaay!
Sarah says
CAN ME!
I always love white and silver Christmas decor, yet I’ve never tried it in my home. Maybe next year!
Robin J says
CAN ME! I’m into teal and white this Christmas with a bit of burgandy. I’m dying to paint a wall in our bedroom though, so come on Glidden… I need something pretty in a nice shade of green!
Ashley says
CAN ME!
Right now I am loving all that is sparkly! So I love the silver. It spruces up everything!
Colette says
CAN ME!
The color I am loving most this Christmas is the lime green of your ornaments in the candle holders. I just love the bright fun updated new green for the holiday.
Brynea says
CAN ME!! While red and green always makes think of Christmas, Jewel tones are what really get me in the mood for Christmas. Fall colors moving into winter with sparkle and cheer make me excited for Christmas!
Alicia says
Can me!! I would love to paint my living room a soft tan color.
Jennifer McLaurin says
CAN ME!!! I am using a lot of birds on my tree in red, silver and orange! I have tried all white in the past but I always end up putting some color in!
Shaye C. says
CAN ME!
-I love the silver & red look!
Tegan and Tage says
CAN ME!
I’m a traditional girl– it’s reds, gold, greens and silver in our house. I’d love to do something fun though, like lime and red. Maybe next year!
Emily U says
CAN ME!
My tree is decorated in christmas jewel tones: purple, blue and green. But i’m loving the Bower Power tree with silver gold and white. Next year perhaps?
Stefanie says
Our tree is has lots of shades of burgundy and green, but my personal style this year is leaning towards black/white/silver with bright red accents. Lookin’ good so far.
Carrie says
CAN ME
Cream and Silver this year and loving it.
Sarah says

I am loving gold this year. When we ordered our wreath I requested it be mostly gold with a little red. I couldn’t get enough gold ornaments on the tree this year.
Anne says
CAN ME!!!!
I just revamped the decorations to include steel blue, lots of silver and shimmery green! LOVE IT!!!!
