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…I can hold a baby on my hip, cook dinner, wash dishes, and fold laundry all at the same time. I’m like master multi-tasked :).

    I’M TALENTED! I love to take photographs, with nature being my primary focus. I am also a crafter, a knitter, a crocheter, and a quilter….and always have a project going.

    I like to draw, but my REAL talent is always spotting That One Guy/Woman in any TV show or movie and figuring out who they are — even when they’re a voice in a cartoon. It’s a very valuable talent, obviously. ;)

    I’M TALENTED!! I have this amazing ability to make up songs at the drop of a hat. For any occasion, or lack of one. Birthdays are my specialty!

    My husband calls me “fan girl” because I remember weird baseball stuff like where a player used to play before his current team and I recognize players on other teams and call them by name before the announcers say it.

    I’M TALENTED. I love to do gift wrapping and have learned to do it fast (but still neatly — all perfect creases and no wrinkles!). I’ve even done it professionally!!

    I’m talented!

    I have absurdly neat handwriting, which seems like a pretty lame talent, but I love it.

    I’M TALENTED! I can pick up things with my toes. Well. My “monkey toes” as my husband calls it. Currently training the kids. Hoping to one day realize my dream as a traveling sideshow family.
