Fab Freebie: Talent Show

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

This week’s randomly selected winner is… Sheilagh (who’s talents lie in “all aspects of art and being crafty!”). Congrats!

One of the most exciting parts of doing a project is getting to share the sweat-inducing results when it’s done. And that’s the idea behind HouseTalent, a free site where you can easily upload before pics, progress shots, and after photos of the DIYs that are going on in your digs. The friendly interface makes browsing other peoples’ accomplishments just as easy as uploading your own inspiration – from small furniture builds to major room overhauls. And to help you get some of your projects ready to share, HouseTalent is giving away a $250 gift card to World Market this week. Speaking of the world, this giveaway is available internationally – so if World Market doesn’t ship to you, you can select a local alternative for your gift card.

    I’m great at dancing in the car when my favorite songs come on the radio (not while driving of course). My husband loves it!

    I don’t know if this qualifies as a talent, but Sherry probably will appreciate it…I can rap, as in I know all the words to every Eminem, Jay Z, etc song. It’s funnier if you could see that I’m a pretty petite white girl. haha

    I’m talented! I can remember quotes from every movie, book, and TV show I’ve come across since I was a kid. If only I could put those brain cells to better use…

    Hmm..I’m a braggart, so I don’t have any “secret” talents, per say….but probably my coolest one is that I can receipt (from memory!) pi to the 16 digit!

    I’M TALENTED! I can sing pretty well, in a choir that is, and I’m especially good at sight-reading new music and enjoy the challenge of tricky harmonies and rhythms!

    I’m talented!! I love to cook and hope I’m talented at it, I tend to ask my husband who likes just about everything so he’s not the best judge!

    I’m TALENTED! I’m really, really good at remembering birthdays — not just friends and family either. Celebrities, coworkers, that weird kid from first grade — I remember them all.

    I’M TALENTED!

    I seem to have a ridiculously accurate memory, but only when it comes to completely useless things like quotes from the Office or Parks & Rec.

    I’m talented! I manage the costume shop for a theater company and can remember the shoe size of almost every actor I’ve worked with in the last 5 years. No idea why.

    I’m talented at HANDSTANDS! I’ve been practicing yoga for a couple of years and getting upside down makes me feel like a kid again.

    My talent is probably my sense of direction! I can’t get lost. It is more like a super power I think!!!
