*** 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.

I’m been drooling over wall stencils so this is super exciting for me! As for how I live life on the edge…I love going on a trip on a whim. Unplanned moments usually are the most fun and memorable. :)
Joanna says
Edge Me! Living on the edge for me is raising 4 kids under 9, running a business at home and building a house…. I’m always “on edge” but that has a whole different meaning!
jeanie says
Edge Me!!
Known for adventurous travel, I once drove vacation rental car in Ireland on left side of road for 1st time ever beside 800 ft. cliff which dropped straight into ocean. There was no guard rail to stop cars falling off. I scared myself so badly I turned rental car in at 1st available location. Grateful to escape w/o a scratch to humans but car was scraped on side rocks from bumper to bumper.

Can’t say I do much to live on the edge these days with a toddler running around. I went night snorkeling in the Dry Tortugas. That was definitely living on the edge for me!!
Abby K says
EDGE ME!
I’m not sure if I live on the edge… I guess that sometimes I fly by the seat of my pants when it comes to scheduling, but other than that, I’m a pretty regular girl. Wish I were a little more edgy… I think the edgiest I’ve been is when I cut my hair pixie short in high school!
Elizabeth says
Edge Me! Today I am “living on the edge” voting in the WI gubernatorial recall election. (not so exciting I guess)
Kathy says
EDGE ME! The craziest thing I’ve done is to buy a house in another state with no guaranteed employment. It all worked out, but it was so risky and I was freaking out!!

Jo @ Let's Face the Music says
EDGE ME! What, me live on the edge? My husband and son are edgy enough for the 3 of us. They bookend me and carry me off on wild schemes. I’m, alas, the voice of reason. Jo @ Let’s Face the Music
Kelly Reber says
EDGE ME…. I have two small kids so not too much life on the edge… but I suppose my buying, renovating and flipping houses is a little on the edge. It drives my hubby nervous nuts because this is a gamble with money…

Ashley says
Edge me!
I’m not an edgy kind of gal, but I really want to stencil my entry. Is that edgy even though everyone is doing it?

Wait, I just remembered….this week peanut butter was on sale and I bought BOTH crunchy and smooth. THAT is living on the edge….

Edge me!
Sad to say as I have gotten older, my edgy-ness has waned. But I still have bungee jumping on my Bucket List, does that count?
Teresa says
Edge Me!
I love roller coasters! The bigger, badder, faster, loopier – the better!!
Erin says
Edge me! Hubby and I took our honeymoon to Greece without booking any hotels in advance. It was a very edgy move for my control-freak, type A personality.

EDGE ME!
I’ve gone scuba diving to 104 feet below the surface. Talk about being on the edge!! At that depth, if something when really wrong with me and my dive buddy there is no way to get to the surface in time. Scary, but thrilling!!
Thuy N says
EDGE ME!
I live life on the edge of insanity everyday because I have four trouble-making dogs. One of my dog is always stealing tomatoes from the garden or eating lettuce leafs from the plant. My husband and I each had two pets when we got married so we combined our household to four!
Elaina B. says
Edge Me! I’m pretty boring. I used to play roller derby but quit to go back to school. I’m still involved in it business wise, but don’t skate :( I’m also a mom of three. 2 boys ages 16 and 12 and a baby girl who is 4 months. That, is living on the edge! lol
