***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!

Silver and red remind me of Christmas.
Megan S says
CAN ME! I started out thinking we’d go all-white, but had a change of heart when I couldn’t make the ornaments I’d envisioned (not enough white paper selection at Archivers) so we’re having a red Christmas with accents of white, silver, and green. Pretty traditional… but also just plain pretty!
Kat says
CAN ME.
We’ve coordinated blue and silver Christmas decorations w/ our turqoise dining/living room.
Tee says
“CAN ME”….red, brown, silver and gold ornaments with white lights welcome olde saint nick throughout our home.
Sabrina says
CAN ME!
I do love the silver and lavendar combo. There’s something so elegant about it and it makes me think of a winter wonderland.
Since I’ve never seen snow – I know, shocking!, I’m so envious of your photo with your house covered in snow. How Christmasy!
michelle crossman says
CAN ME!
I love lime green and bright red! Fresh
Rebecca says
CAN ME!
I love to decorate with silver during the holidays. It doesn’t matter what color it’s paired with, as long as it’s silver.
Brandi Harrison says
CAN ME!
I can’t get enough of an all white Christmas!

Can me! Lots of red – it makes me feel warmer in the winter!
Mallory says
“Can Me”
Our living room is covered in gold, red and green. It’s my favorite! Our first Christmas was blue, silver and white, but I quickly changed my mind and the last few years have just been building on our new scheme.
Lara C says
Can me!
I love the bright lime green (yearround, honestly), and usually I add a lot of pink to that and shy away from typical red&green…but I’m digging the traditional this year!
Tracy says
Can Me!
Teresa K. says
CAN ME! My favorite Christmas wreath is a metallic magenta masterpiece. It’s a little over the top, but it makes me smile.
Kelly says
CAN ME! I really wanted an all white ornament tree, but couldn’t find them anywhere for less than $20 a pop! We settled on a montage of old and new ornaments in every color…
EVE says
CAN ME!
I’M TOTALLY LOVING SILVER & BLUE!
Phoebe S says
CAN ME!
I don’t know about colors–but ribbons all over the place from Christmas packages certainly helps me feel like the season’s here.
amy says
can me!
plum and gold!
Rebecca says
I love the traditional deep red and green. But I think I’m going to look for some after-Christmas sale ribbon in bright green and teal and red polka dot to add a little fun to our “homemade ornament tree” – the tree that we decorate solely with ornaments that our little boys have made. It fills up more every year and it has become my favorite of our two Christmas trees!
Amy A says
Can me! I’m into neutrals this year: white, creme, tan, brown, silver, and greenery.
Jamie says
CAN ME
We are going with silver and green this year.
Chelsea S. says
CAN ME!!
Our tree and home is decorated in golds, deep reds, and a splash of green with all white lights.
marie t says
CAN ME! I’m loving the boring silvers and whites this season. But I love very white Christmases, so it makes sense :-)
Meagan says
Can Me! Chartruse and silver.
emma says
Can me!
I always love a dark green and brown palate, nature inspired!
courtney says
CAN ME
I love purple paired with either silver or gold–looks very regal and holiday-ish!
kristy says
CAN ME! I love the colors of white, gold & silver being paired with the neutral rustic look of burlap and other natural elements that I’m seeing this year.
Malena says
CAN ME!
I have the traditional red and green in places because I love Santas, and of course all of the things my kids have made through the years. Even though I’m transitioning to mostly white/silver/snowflake/heart theme, all of the ornaments I’ve bought them and all of the ones they’ve made still have to to on the tree. And they insist on multi-colored lights. Oh, and I made my daughter a mini-LSU tree this year, complete w/purple & gold lights.
Callie says
CAN ME!
This year I have decorated for Christmas in lime green, silver, and pewter. Accented with a light burlap and a lime green burlap-esque fabric from Ikea. It’s been classy but still really contemporary. : )
laura says
Can me!
Frosty blue, silver, and white.
MissCaron says
“CAN ME” and… the colors that get me into the holiday spirit each season are the traditional red and green, always.
rachel says
CAN ME!
i’m loving a twist on the traditional red and green this year – deep pink and lime green. it’s super-fun and festive, especially when paired with gold. i’m also a sucker for an elegant red and gold combo.
Jen says
CAN ME!
i love silver and blue every christmas. and shades of white got me this year after seeing your target holiday post. i found some inspiring fabric in white/blueish grey and made some pillow slipcovers for my couches.. i will keep the white ones up for the winter!
Carrie says
Can me! We are all about the lime green and red with silver. My parents bought me sterling silver ornaments every year growing up, so I have a collection of sterling ornaments that go on the tree every year. Now that I have two kids of my own, I am thinking of restarting the tradition.
Emily says
CAN ME! We decked our house out in light blue, silver and pops of red. So what if someone called our tree patriotic. I thought it was pretty!
Robin says
CAN ME (please!!)!!!!!!
I’m loving red and white this year! We didn’t have $$ to buy ornaments for our giant real tree, but we are enjoying the ones we’ve collected over the years as a mish-mash of holiday styles and colors. The rest of our holiday decorating is red and white though :)
Jessica Pieri says
CAN ME!! I have been dreaming of repainting the common areas of my home!! We are having a red/gold christmas this year! I think the pairing is just beautiful!
Sarah says
CAN ME!
This season I’ve really enjoyed the classic silver and gold combo. They remind me of that song the snowman sings on Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. :o)
Vicki K says
“CAN ME” and… the colors we have each season are the traditional red and green. Our tree is covered with traditional ornaments that we purchased and made over the years. Always a favorite!!!
lauren says
Can me!
It is my first year in our new home so we’re just starting to collect Christmas decorations…we’re doing mostly red and green, classic!
Reba says
Can me!
This Christmas is all about rich red with crisp white and flashes of gold. Classic but never boring.
Val says
CAN ME!!
All about the red and white. But then, I love those colors all year long.
Peg says
CAN ME!
I’m using a lot of red and silver, but the big change this year is nothing ‘crafty’-
only shiny, sparkly ornaments. No sticks, pinecones or cotton balls.
& white lights on the tree.
Katharine says
CAN ME!
I have done a traditional red, green, and gold for several years now. Once I got everything up this year I realized that I’m kinda tired of that and want something fresher and brighter. I’m already making plans for next year!
Jen Bishop says
Can me! Traditional colors always work. I like silver too!
Becca says
CAN ME I still love the red and green, always reminds me of Christmas.
