*** 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.

Anne says
Edge me! Does it count that using a stencil on the wall would be pretty edgy for me?
Jen says
EDGE ME! I guess since I work downtown that’s kind of edgy. Well, not really too edgy, but it’s all I could think of. :)

“EDGE ME!”
rock climbing, river kayaking and roller coasters

Sarah says
EDGE ME!
Moving into my first “big girl” place after graduating from college this year! I have been waiting for a coupon code to purchase my stencil from them. The gift card would definitely help pay for the stencil I want! Edge me, please! :-)

EDGE ME!
In the last year I started trapeze lessons…it’s awesome!

Eve says
Edge me!

Edge me!
I’m the most risk adverse gal ever, but I have done some white water rafting which is definitely for the adventurous types!

Amanda says
EDGE ME!
Totally J-Walk across NYC avenues while the light is still green – so dangerous ;)
Katherine says
EDGE ME!
There are two crazy, on-the-edge prospects in my life right now — first up, the beautiful, under $3K Fiat Spider convertible that keeps staring at me on Craigslist. I have absolutely no business buying a convertible, but ohhhhh the temptation. Look out, it just might happen. The other crazy thing is even crazier but in a “wow, I feel like such a boring grown-up” way. The house next door is for sale at a ridiculous price, and we just might buy it and become landlords. And frankly, I don’t know which of the two is a bigger possibility right now!
Allison says
Edge me!
Katie says
EDGE ME!
Ice cream during bathing suit season is my edge! haha… dieting is so terrible!

To me, living on the edge is waking up really early on Saturday mornings to go to the farmer’s market. Oooooohhhhh Ahhhhhhh!!
Jen says
“EDGE ME!”
Oh, you know, all that crazy off the grid travel I used to do would count….but these days, with a toddler, I am edgiest if I stay up past 10pm!
Julie says
Edge Me! I’m trying my first stencil in our new house!
Danyl H says
EDGE ME! I don’t live on the edge very often so it doesn’t happen on the daily. However, 2 years ago on a trip to Hawaii, I swam in a cage with sharks off the coast of Oahu. It was incredible!
Heidi says
EDGE ME!
I take risks my challenging myself to try new things. Run a marathon – check! Try brussel sprouts – Check!

EDGE ME! I just took a new, scary, and awesome job that is kicking my butt. Updating our 70 year old home is my therapy, and I want to stencil my bathroom!
Alisa d says

EDGE ME!! I feel so boring! I guess doing any DIY project with my husband can be living on the edge, since most of the time, we don’t know what we are doing!!

Edge me!
Mona says
EDGE ME!!!
I recently jumped off a boat in the middle of a huge lake without a life jacket. And had to scream for one due to the fact that waves were pushing me away from the boat from passing boats and I didn’t have the strength to swim back. I almost died but hey…I was living on the edge! :)
stephanie says
EDGE ME!!!
My husband and I like to live life on the edge through our travels.
Whether it’s taking a sketchy night boat (with cockroaches) in Thailand, or walking with rhinos in Swaziland, it’s always a thrill.
Can’t wait for our upcoming trip which will include a shark cage and skydiving in S. Africa.
Lori says
Edge Me! Can’t say I’m very ‘edgy’ but would love the edge these stencils will give my house :)
