Berry Beautiful GIVEAWAY
June 4, 2009
Thanks to the folks over at CSN Stores, I was honored to choose an item from their line of products to giveaway on my site. So one of you will be the lucky recipient of this lovely white earthenware Lenox Berry Bowl, which retails on the CSN Stores site for $60. It includes the silver serving spoon !
One can never have enough white ceramic decor, right? This piece is designed to be used as a table worthy colander, but this bowl is actually quite versatile. You can use it all summer long to wash your freshest berries, and it will come in especially handy for your Fourth of July soiree. But you’ll never put it away. Why?
This autumn, you could use this bowl to display a festive pumpkin in your home, or on your Thanksgiving table. See ?
Then during the Christmas season, you might fill it with ornaments for your best holiday dinner party:
Better yet, before summer is out, you should line it with plastic, fill it with ice, and take it to the beach. Don’t forget the limes:

Now that you’re convinced this will be a delightful addition to your home, you need to do two simple things to be eligible for this most splendid giveaway.
In a comment, you must:
1) Visit the platform beds link at CSN Stores and tell me which one of their platform beds you would use in your home. No obligation to buy friends, just visit the link.
2) In your comment, copy and paste yet another link to a fabulous DIY project. Bonus points if it’s yours.
That’s all folks.
Remember, I am amassing a collection of your original DIY projects in the Links Library on my website with a link to your site, so don’t hesitate to prop yourself up. If you’re not in the mood for self-promotion, you can still qualify by including a link to a DIY project that lately has inspired you. (No fair linking to one of mine, though I would be most flattered.)
Tell all your friends so they can get in on the giveaway. Eligibility ends at 8 p.m. PST on Sunday. The winner will be chosen at random by Random.org and announced on Monday morning.
Have a most relaxing weekend.

LOVE your projects!
I really liked the Hilldale–Tiburom Kona Platform bed. It reminds me of the DYI project Freckles Chick did in her blog. She took a Pier One piece of art and painted it and hung it as her headboard. Her blog is freckleschick.blogspot.com
Hi Kate.
What a fun give a way. I visited CSN and since we're fantasizing here, I thought I'd dream big. I would love the Wilshire Platform Canopy bed. Mind you, I say fantasizing because my bedroom is way too small for that bed. A little fantasizing never hurt though, right?!
Here is the link to my latest DIY. I'm super excited about it, so I hope you get a chance to come check it out.

Thanks so much for the fun little give a way. I think that bowl would look very pretty on my new buffet. Don't you? ;)

I love the platform beds! The modus-newport bed is definitely my favorite.
I have to admit, I only dream about DIY…and I have lots of dreams. You are particularly inspiring to me. I love your daughter's room transformation! The desk is something that I am going to attempt.

I have an old desk with great "bones" that would be perfect for my little daughters. Wish me luck!
I loved the South Shore one! Gorgeous beds!

That ceramic bowl is definitely versatile. It can also be used to hold the party favors by serving as a pretty "favor centerpiece."
