Fab Freebie: Book Worms Rejoice

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

So many book-hungry people out there! This giveaway hit its 10,000 cap within 24 hours, so we’re already back with a winner. The lucky worm is… Melissa (who keeps her favorite books in a bedside cabinet, a living room end table, and on a special display shelf in the family room. She believes “all good book nerds have them in all parts of the house!”). Congrats Melissa!

Our book release is officially here! Woo hoo! And we’re celebrating by giving away books this week. But not just our book. Lots o’ books. In fact, some of them will even come signed by some pretty awesome people. Woot! We’ve been gobbling up so many design, decor, and home books lately that we thought it’d be fun to share some of our recent faves from our library. So in addition to a signed copy of our new book, you’ll also be getting copies of the following (marked with an asterisk when signed!):

  • The Things That Matter by Nate Berkus
  • The Handbuilt Home by Ana White*
  • Design*Sponge at Home by Grace Bonney
  • Home by Novogratz by Robert & Cortney Novogratz*
  • Style Me Pretty Weddings by Abby Larson* (which releases next month)
  • Happier at Home by Gretchen Rubin*

BookGiveawaySMP

  • PRIZE: Copies of all of the books shown above, including signatures from us, Gretchen Rubin, Abby Larson, the Novogratzes, and Ana White!
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BOOK ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … what special place in your home do you keep your favorite books? Do they get a prime spot on your coffee table? Or do you have a large collection of faves that fill a bookcase somewhere? Maybe your top pick at the moment just lives cozily on your night table?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Nov 7th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible – more on that here)
  • 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.

    BOOK ME! I used to keep all the books in this great west elm bookshelf in the living room. But with a 9 month old – they are all spread out over the house in places he cant reach – upstairs office, garage, bedside table, inside ottomans. Its a treasure hunt whenever I need to find one.

    BOOK ME! All over. Anywhere there’s a surface, there’s a book. The lower surfaces have toddler friendly books. :) My faves are proudly shown on our buffet in the dining room – no mantle yet and see above for why no coffee table.

    Book me! We have a bookshelf in our living room. It was the first purchase for our house.. We bought it the day we closed and it took four grown men to get it out of the box and set up. The last few years I tried to keep it nice and decorative since it is in the first room of the house, but currently its out of control. We’re book people.

    Book me! I kept my design books on a little table in between two chairs in our livingroom! Unfortunately Hurricane Sandy took the books, chairs and living-room for a swim! [Wah wah…] So it would be incredible to get a new collection! I’m sure a lot of folks out there watched their books get water-logged! Luckily, my pre-order of your book has yet to arrive and has therefore remained dry! I would give the copy in this set to someone else who loves DIY design and was flooded!
