*** This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
We’ve got two names to announce as the random winners this week and they are… Eileen Marie (who lives on the edge by teaching on the “mean streets of Chicago”) and Kristin M (who is the mom to a “crazy 2 year old” – which is a life on the edge that we can relate to). Congrats ladies! And for everyone else, Cutting Edge Stencils added a 20% discount code – YHL20 – that’s good through Sunday. Sweet!
Who wants to jump on the wall stencil bandwagon with us (remember when Sherry spent 14 hours stenciling our office last October? Well how does a $50 nudge sound? Because the folks at Cutting Edge Stencils are gonna give two of you a gift card that’ll cover just about any stencil in their catalog – from florals and geometrics to damasks and graphic shapes. They’ve even got a new collection of stencils created by Design Star winner Kim Myles (we especially love her gingko leaf design on the right). And is the one on the top left giving anyone else Jeff Lewis vibes?
- PRIZE: $50 to Cutting Edge Stencils
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “EDGE ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … how you live life on the edge. I ask this somewhat sarcastically since life on the edge for us usually includes eating a second dessert or negotiating a good yard sale deal. But if you’ve really done (or regularly do) something thrilling or outrageous, we’d love to hear about it.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 6th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
- DISCOUNT: 20% off with code YHL20 through 6/17
- 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…
Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Cutting Edge Stencils.

EDGE ME!
I’ve been pretty edgy with paint colors lately. I may or may not consider yellow edgy! :) I’m wild!
Katie says
Edge Me!
I’m pretty tame but the last few months my husband and I have had date night once a week. Leaving the kids for a night on the town so often feels like living life on the edge! Haha.
Angela says
Edge Me!
Lana says
EDGE ME!
My husband and I live on the edge by traveling whenever we can.
Amanda Jean says
EDGE ME!

Betsy says
Edge me!
Gina F says
Edge Me! I’m really boring so nothing exciting. Sorry!
Lauren C. says
EDGE ME!
I took a rather spur of the moment trip this weekend! Anyone who is willing to make a 7 hour car trip with a 2 & 3 year old (with a days notice)is living on the edge in my opinion ;)
Brooke says
Edge Me! I think I used to take way more risks- like moving to Africa, but now, I am sort of boring… perhaps I burned out early by being so crazy when I was younger?
Meghann says
EDGE ME!
I pretty safe when is comes to day to day things. However.. I love to drive and drive fast. Used to have a sports car but my hubby convinced me to sell it since he was scared that I was gonna kill myself. Since becoming a mom, I am way more careful. Recently my hubby got a new car (its quick) and when I have no children in tow….lets just say I have a good time. =)
Emily says
Edge me! A few years ago I moved across the country (where I knew NO one) with no plan. Livin’ on the edge! (Of the country)
Rachel says
EDGE ME! Not taking too many risks these days.
Sharon Zehender says
EDGE ME!! I live on the edge by constantly going to babysit my 2 nephews, and after they run me ragged, I go back for more!!
Harmony Quiroz says
EDGE Me. I think buying a home and committing to a bunch of fixer projects is living on the edge for me – it certainly was a major leap of faith.
sarah r. says
edge me!
yeah, i’m more of a play-it-safe type of gal…
Kendall says
Edge Me! I once painted my kitchen bright orange. I think that’s about as risky as you can get, right?
Wendi says
Edge Me!!!
Ashley D says
eDgE mE!!!
I really don’t think you can classify this as living on the edge, but when I start gazing at the home decor pictures on Pinterest long enough(it may be an addiction)I will suddenly want to re-do something in our house. I will do whatever takes to finish a project that I’ve been eyeing. I won’t stop until I’m finished, but at least I get around to the things I’ve been wanting to do to our house.
Eliza says
EDGE ME!
So, the most “wild” thing I have done is getting tattoos, which everyone who sees me is shocked about because I’ve been told I seem…well…quiet and reserved and not the type, I guess. But, I gotta admit I love them and it is definitely addictive!
Lauren Bee says
Edge me! I always think about breaking rules, but then decide to follow them anyway.
Paul Draper says
Edge Me!!
Sometimes when I feel like living on the edge I’ll run one whole mile and it feels gooood, but really that’s is exciting as it gets for me.
kelle says
EDGE ME! running rugged maniac 5k soon; mud, obstacles, yes!
Abbe says
EDGE ME! :)
Michelle F says
edge me! I lived in Paris when I was 15 in a models apartment.
Heather M. says
EDGE ME!! I have five children. That’s all the edge in my life I can take.
Liz says
Edge me! In almost all aspects of my life I am nothing but safe. Except that I am a bit of an adrenaline-junkie! I have been skydiving once and bungee jumping over five times. : )
Darcy says
EDGE ME!
No living on the edge here either – other than my husband quitting his job late last year to start a micro-brewery in the next few months!! Can I use that, even if its not me?!!? LOL!
PatC says
“EDGE ME!”
On Memorial Day weekend I splurged and purchased a Carving Trike. It’s like a standing tricycle. It’s supposed to be good exercise for your entire body. Since I’m 52 and out of shape, it’s been a challenge for me to learn. But I’m still trying. lol
Kathy says
EDGE ME! I am retiring in 17 days and am planning to DIY till I drop!
christina says
EDGE ME!
painting my own nails is an experience of its own, i am right handed so painting with my left and trying to make it neat is my “livin on the edge”!
Kathleen T. says
EDGE ME!!
Rachael says
Edge me! My living on the edge is being spontaniouse. I don’t like to have every moment mapped out, but LOVE to go with the flow!
Whitney says
EDGE ME! I don’t live too much on the edge..Probably the last thing I’ve done that’s “on the edge” for me is ride all the water slides in the water park I went to last summer! I had never been on one before, but I loved it so much I just went on all of them!
Jessica K says
Edge me! I’m a teacher so the most daring thing I’ve done lately is take my 24 students on a field trip!

edge me! i love toeing the line, it keeps life fun!

EDGE ME! Sometimes living on the edge is just taking my 3-year-old grocery shopping with me!

EDGE ME… I love a good roller coaster, thats about as edgy as I’ll get though.

EDGE ME! I drive my car with the gas tank on empty to see how far I can get before filling up :)
Rachel @ Thrifty Inspirations says
Edge me!!
Emily S says
EDGE ME! With two little kiddos, I rarely take risks anymore. These days I feel edgy when I go out with the girls, relax with a drink and good friends, and get home after my usual bedtime. ;)
Jackie says
Edge Me. Sorry we are the borings. The most exciting this we do is go out on a weekend instead of stay in and rent a movie.
Rachel @ Thrifty Inspirations says
I live on the edge by painting in the rain ;)
jeanna says
EDGE ME!
I guess I live on the edge, by experimenting with food and with my wardrobe,I love to try new things with my children we go on these crazy adventures.
Jen from insideways says
EDGE ME!
I think the closest I get to the “edge” is seeing how much I can cram into my schedule before a) it all falls apart or b) I fall apart – what a bad habit haha!
Kelsey says
Edge me! I’d say my hobby of barrel racing is pretty edgy.
Ashley says
EDGE ME!
Living life on the edge for me is going to school part time for an MBA (in the evenings) while also going to work 40 hours per week. There is little time for anything else.
Callie B. says
Edge me! The most thrilling thing I’ve probably ever done is go on a medical mission by myself for a couple of weeks in Amman, Jordan. Met some of the most caring and compassionate people and helped changed many lives! Very rewarding experience!
