Fab Freebie: Christmas Lights

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

This week’s early Christmas present is going to… Nancy (who says she “could certainly use some new lighting” and her favorite holiday glow “has to be my fireplace.”) Congrats Nancy!

As much as we love holiday lights, indoor lighting is something that you stare at every day of the year. So if you don’t love your lighting situation, this is one way to “dude, get on that” without spending any cash. See, recently we were voted one of Lamps Plus’ top home blogs of 2012 (how flattering!) and it came with a $500 shopping spree prize… but you know we don’t take freebies or swag, so the folks at Lamps Plus kindly agreed that we could pass that $500 credit to one of you! We’ve been fans of theirs for a while now since they seem to have about a million options (their chandeliers even popped up in our book a few times) so this week’s winner should have no trouble finding something to spend their light-loot on if they win.

    Lamp me!!
    I love the old big incandescent lights for the outside (btw, hard to find in stores), especially when it snows and they look like they’re glowing.

    LAMP ME!
    I love traditional white lights. It is so magical at night when all of the lights are out except for the Christmas tree.

    LAMP ME! It’s a tie between the twinkle lights on my Christmas tree and the roar of a fire! Both equally lovely!

    LAMP ME! Love the mini white lights twinkling on the tree and the glow of a fireplace! Grew up with the big colored bulbs…now quite the retro look!

    LAMP ME! My favorite lights are simple white twinkle lights, but the colored ones remind me of great childhood memories so they’re not bad either!

    LAMP ME! I love the old incandescent white outside lights. The new LED ones are too blue and cold.

    (Goodness could I use a Lamps Plus shopping spree, I have a 50s light fixture housing dangling from the ceiling because I can’t find something to replace it!)

    I love the classic look of all white holiday lights. We switched to LED lights inside this year on our tree, and we chose lights that are pearlized. Very beautiful!

    LAMP ME! My favorite holiday lights are definitely outside Christmas lights… but they have to be old school, not the new LED lights – I just can’t get used to the weird colors of the LED lights (especially the blues and the whites! Bleh!)
