*** This contest is now closed – see who won below!***
And this week’s random winner is… Stacy (who says “when I was little, I got the local radio dj’s autograph and thought I was so cool! Looking back, it is just funny how silly it was!”). Congrats Stacy!
We love us some Candice Olson (and still pinch ourselves that our faces share a webpage with her over on BenjaminMoore.com). So we sweet talked our way into a little Benjamin Moore / Candice Olson prize for you guys – including a signed copy of her latest book, Candice Olson Bedrooms. So once you’ve torn yourself away from petting her signature (not that we’d do that, ok we totally would) and are ready to put that Olson-spiration to use, Benjamin Moore’s gonna lend a hand with two gallons of their Aura paint, a 7-piece applicator kit, a $50 gift card, and your very own Candice Olson Design Picks fan deck. And if that’s not enough of a Candice fix for ya, you can enter to win a personal design consultation from her over on Benjamin Moore’s site.
- PRIZE: Two gallons of Aura paint, a 7-piece applicator kit, $50 gift card, a Candice Olson Design Picks fan deck and signed copy of Candice Olson Bedrooms courtesy of Benjamin Moore.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “MOORE ME” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what other autograph have you snagged? Did you get your favorite band to sign an album cover? Or receive a signed letter from a big name public figure? Maybe you got a big novelty check signed by Ed McMahon? Or just a sweet crayon-drawing signed by a niece or nephew?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Sept 12th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States & Canada (we couldn’t leave out Candice’s homeland!)

Moore Me! I would love to win this prize!!! I am currently trying to find the perfect shade of grey for my living room and the process is driving me crazy!!! So far I’ve tried 6 different samples and I just can’t get it right! Maybe Candice will steer me in the right direction!!!

Courtney says
MOORE ME!
Sadly I’ve only gotten 2 autographs in my life. One was a local newscaster who I thought was really cute – I saw him at a bar and he signed the back of his bar tab for me (sad). The other was when I was little – my parents did business with Kirstie Alley and she sent me an autographed picture of herself. But I never got to meet her!
Lauren says
Moore me!

Moore me! Unfortunately not autograph for me!
Sarahincola says
Moore me, please
Theresa says
Moore me!
Oh man, back in highschool I was serious about my concerts. I now have probably 100 autographs from d-list musicians. Most I can’t read and wouldn’t know who they were even if I could- but they’re great memories.
On a different note- My sister cared for an old man at her nursing home. He died a few weeks ago and just a few days ago she found one of his books (2nd hand) and inside was his autograph with “I’ll never forget you”. I think it’s amazing how things happen this way (sorry to get sappy on you). :D
DONNA says

Lidia Bastianich signed my menu last week at Eataly in NYC!

Robert says
MOORE ME!
I had the chance to get all the signatures from my favorite football team when I was 10 years old. I still have that football on display in the den.

My most prized autograph was the signature of Neil Patrick Harris on a postcard that I received after writing him a fan letter for Doogie Howser, M.D. I feel old admitting that!

MOORE ME! Please :D
Caroline says
MOORE ME!!
I have never understood the appeal of autographs… I guess I wouldn’t know what to do with one & would just shove it in a drawer. HOWEVER, I, like many girls in the 90s, had an “autograph book” in which I collected the signatures of my close friends/acquaintances/anyone who would sign it…. and then shoved it in a drawer, haha.
Karli says
MOORE ME!!! I got a baseball signed by Guam’s Pepsi baseball team at the one game I went to.

I snagged Bill Murray’s autograph when I was in middle school.
Sandy Citron says
Moore Me!
After I had my son two years ago, I spent most if the first couple of months at home. My husband was lucky enough to get out of the house for the day, and headed to Chicago’s Comic Con.
A few hours after he left, I got a phone call from his phone. Assuming it was him, I answered with “Did you see my favorite 90210 hottie yet?” referring to Ian Ziering. I almost died when the man on the other end said, “I’m really flattered. I’m sure you’re beautiful too.”. OMG!!! It was Ian! Somehow my husband convinced him to call me during a lull in his autograph line, and he congratulated me on our new son. I also got an autographed photo of him that says “to the the beautiful sandy” I guess he was so excited by our convo, that he wasn’t looking at hat he was writing!
Laura says
MOORE ME!

MOORE ME! I have no autographs! :( But I was a professional NSync stalker back in the day. At 13 years old, my friend and I stood outside a bar until 3 am waiting for them to walk out. So I have pictures of them sneaking out of a dark alley about 50 yards away. ha!
