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 TALENTED! My short term memory is insane. (So is my long-term memory, but not in a good way…)

    I’m talented…at baking the most delicious desserts! My husband especially appreciates this skill, although our waistlines do not. :)

    I can turn any task into “fun”….cleaning the bathroom while singing or racing the clock, check!

    I’m talented! I do a lot of things – I can play flute and guitar (but not at the same time), and I knit, crochet, cross stitch, and do Norwegian Hardanger embroidery (among other things).

    I can stand on my head for a long time…not sure this will ever come in handy but it’s what I’ve got.

    I’m talented! I have the very useful talent (seriously!) of being able to consistently cook a fried egg to perfection.

    I’m a graphic designer, so I’ve come to know fonts very well. I’ll often see a advertisement and call what fonts make up their typography. “Oooh! Trajan Pro!”

    I’M TALENTED!

    I haven’t had the opportunity to showcase my skills in some time now, but in college I had a sure-fire hit every time I performed the Eskimo Stick Twist.
