***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
We gave random.org the assignment again of helping us choose our winner and they chose… Sarah (who could think of 10 little projects that have added up that she could use this for). Congrats Sarah!
Since the early days of YHL, we’ve been buddies with the foursome over at One Project Closer. Ethan, Fred, and their wives Jocie and Kim dish up tutorials, tool reviews and decor posts to help us all get (say it with me) one project closer to our dream house. Recently they’ve launched a series of “Pro-Follows” where the boys tag along with professional contractors to document big projects like building a deck (which we may be referencing soon ourselves). But if that makes you break into a sweat, perhaps their new The Better Half section (where the ladies tackle design and craft projects) is more your speed. Whichever suits you, One Project Closer is helping someone get one hundred dollars closer this week with a $100 prize to the home improvement store of your choice. Now that should suit just about everyone, right?
- PRIZE: $100 to the home improvement store of your choice courtesy of One Project Closer
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “GET ME CLOSER” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what house project do you want to be closer to finishing? Are you ready for that kitchen remodel to end (or to get started)? Do you want to get all of your spring cleaning out of the way? Or are you really just ready to be done decorating your bedroom?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 25th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The lower 48 United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

GET ME CLOSER!
We currently have two projects we need to finish–our master bathroom and our baby girl’s nursery. This fun prize would go to the nursery. I can’t wait to put her sweet little room together!

Get me closer to building a new deck!!! A deck with carpet on it is not flattering at all:(
Jeremy says
GET ME CLOSER!
I really would like to be close to starting a kitchen remodel, but I just don’t have the time to tackle it (and money’s always an issue, isn’t it?) The cabinets are nice hardwood from the 1960’s… but it shows. And dishwashers didn’t exist in 1960’s kitchens, so we really would like to add one.
(Oh, and if you see Ethan, tell him Jeremy says Hi! I went to college with Ethan and really should be following his site more often…)

Teresa says
Get me (my husband) closer to finishing the master shower tile project that has been in the works since October 2010 when I asked him the clean the shower :) We had a fiberglass in closure and he decided that it was time to tear it out instead of cleaning it so that he could create a tiled shower instead. Every weekend he says that he’ll finish it but it just doesn’t get done. When I got pregnant is feb 2011, I was told it’d be done before the baby got here, well she’ll 4 months old now and were still showering in the extra bathroom. One day IT WILL get done, I’ve even treated to hire a contractor :) I know he’ll do it, it’s just going to get done when HE’S ready to work on it!

I am itching to wallpaper the “toilet closet” in my master bath. Not a huge project, but doable for the $100 AND who wouldn’t love to wake up in the morning and use the bathroom surrounded by some awesome pattern. Wouldn’t need near as much coffe I’m guessing :)
