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!

    My shelves in my living room are filled, with double copies of books I love. Hoping to DYI some built in bookshelves to hold them all soon (my favorite thing to decorate in the house).

    BOOK ME! I am such a bookworm…I have two sets of bookcases for my whittled down faves and had to give away eight boxes’ worth to the local library when we moved here. It was painful, but at least I know where I can go to visit them! Books in the current rotation go on the nightstand, or the floor next to it when the pile gets too high and starts leaning.

    I love bookcases as displays for my collections and books too. Also always have a stack of books bedside on my nightstand – which also elevate the light! Love all things house diy related – especially the stuff that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg! Very cool!

    Mys are styled on the bookshelf in our front living room. We have plans to turn that bookshelf into a built-in sometime too. That stack would look amazing on there – and probably give us lots of tips on how to make our dream of building it in come to fruition! :)

    Where do I keep my books? Asking me where I don’t keep my books is a better question! Besides cookbooks, I don’t have any books in my kitchen. Other than that, I have a couple of bookshelves, tables, desks, cabinets, etc. in which to house my books :).

    My current favorites are closer to my bed so that if I feel like reading before going to sleep, I can pick one up. The rest of my books reside in a pair of bookcases in the downstairs hall outside our guest bedroom.
