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!

    My favorite is non-multi, non-white, just one or two colors (we use all blue, but I really like a nice red and green display too).

    LAMP ME! I love old-fashioned bubble lights! We used to have them on my tree growing up and I have great memories of them!

    LAMP ME!!! I am all about seeing massive amounts of Christmas lights – as long as they are on someone elses house! I prefer a more subtle look with lights on the tree and lighted garland on the mantle.

    LAMP ME! My very favorite lights are the white lights (with a white cord not green) that I hang as garland around my windows. We make a ton of paper snowflakes and hange them off the lights…it’s so pretty!

    Lamp me! There is a neighborhood that attaches the end of a string of lights to a baseball and throws the lights up into the big trees, so it cascades really neat lines. Its so different and cool to drive through there.

    Lamp Me!! For Christmas I love the old school big colored bulbs on the tree, and the outdoor strings of icicle lights in the windows!!! The rest of the house could sure use a lighting update, however!!

    LAMP ME! I love the outdoor lights on front porches. So pretty in the night time when we’re watching for Santa’s sleigh!

    Lamp Me! I am a simple white lights on the Christmas tree. That’s my favorite. And of course a roaring fire in the fireplace.

    Can’t go wrong with white twinkle lights, but my tree is currently kicking it old school with big colorful bulbs.
