Home Depot: Gift Card Giveaway

By Kate Riley May 4, 2012

Hi everyone, happy weekend to you all!  Last night I was in Roseville and I gave a presentation for Home Depot in partnership with their resident garden expert Skip.  He taught us all a few new things about container gardening, and I chimed in the creative side, sharing some ideas on how to spruce up ordinary containers plus a few ideas on how to add beauty and whimsy to outdoor spaces.  I didn’t take any pictures since I was speaking, but here is a peek at one part where I’m showing how to create a mosaic tile planter, courtesy of Home Depot on Instagram.  I’ll show how I made that beautiful planter next week!

This weekend, the kind folks over at Home Depot are offering three lucky winners a $50 gift card to shop for anything you want!  Yep, there are three gift cards up for grabs this weekend.  Who’s in the mood for a little home improvement?

  1. We’re getting ready to paint our kitchen cabinets and tile a backsplash. My husband and I usually end up at Home Depot on our date nights! =)

  2. We are about to start a kitchen renovation. It would be a great little gift to buy some of the supplies we will need.

  3. Since we just moved into our first house last weekend, EVERYTHING needs to be done! My plan is to start with painting though!

  4. My next project is to paint the outside of my house. I’ve finally convinced my hubby that it’s OK to paint our ugly brick. I’m so excited!

  5. I have a list a mile long but I really want to tackle a play area for my two boys. I could definitely use a gift card to home depot to help get me started!

  6. Our next project is fixing and staining our deck… can’t wait to relax on it this summer.

  7. We just bought our new home and it needs a lot done!!! My first project is to refinish the kitchen cabinets and put new countertops and pulls. I am using your How to’s to accomplish this. Thanks for all your tips!

  8. We just bought an old farmhouse and I have a hundred new projects.
    I guess the first is to paint my bedroom before we move in. Then on to
    the others. I am out of breath already!! Thanks for your neat blog.

  9. We bought our first house six months ago. Everything needs to be redone. Starting with a new roof next month.

  10. Gardening gardening and more gardening…we are starting to replace all the planter beds in the backyard now, hoping to have a tropical theme by the pool by summer!

  11. My fiance and I are in a home improvement hurricane right now. Our whole condo is torn to shreds. Thankfully we haven’t touched the kitchen yet but we will very soon. We will be repainting our cabinets white and installing butchers block as counter tops with a undermount sink. I hope we finish soon because I am tired of living on a cement floor!

  12. You looked great, Kate…very professional. Loved the photo! Fabulous shoes, too! I bet it was a fun evening. Our next home project is our landscaping in our front yard. We just finished ripping out a ton of juniper that had been there for probably 30 years I’m guessing. The gift card would certainly come in handy! Happy weekend to you!

  13. We are getting ready to paint our 2 year old’s “big girl room” and transform the basement to a playroom! Any help we can get would be great! Thanks for hosting!

  14. OMGosh! How did I not know you were here in Roseville??? I would have run right over to Home Depot last night. LOL! So many projects, what to pick? I think the next one will be sprucing up the backyard, starting with laying some brick pavers to extend the patio.

  15. Need to spruce up the bathroom and am planning on a kitchen renovation a little bit down the road.

  16. We just bought our first home, and have numerous projects in the works. Currently ripping down wood paneling, and old carpet. We also ripped out all the baseboards in the home and will be replacing them. I’m also dying to try your tutorial on installing picture frame molding, it’s going to look so clean and elegant in our colonial. So excited!

  17. Building floating shelves above freshly chalk painted china hutch. Gimme the card so I can buy the lumber!

  18. My retired husband and I are getting ready to paint two bedrooms before the grandchildren visit. We love the selection at Home Depot for all our supplies!

  19. My next project is to paint my office and I also plan to turn an old coffee table into a desk for the office.

  20. Oh, we’ve got two projects going… building a banquette to neaten up the eat-in portion of our kitchen, and a loft/built-in storage fiasco, um, re-do in our daughters’ room. HD is our favorite, so I know that $50 would be put to good and immediate use!

  21. I need to repaint my front porch and get some new kitchen lighting.

  22. We’re moving into a 12-year-old townhouse and we will be making many changes in various rooms–flooring, lighting, fixtures, etc. It would be great to receive a gift card to help with all our expenses!

  23. Our next house project is re-doing our dining room. It’s really dark and needs some updating!

  24. I am really looking forward to seeing that mosaic tiles planter, I think it would be great to make one for my garden. We got this crazy idea of building a brick fireplace in the backyard this summer, so I am sure that we could find all we need at Home Depot.

  25. New curtains and shelving in my music room
    More decorating than remodel…

  26. Our next home improvement project is the master bedroom. We haven’t done anything with it and it’s time to paint! A Home Depot gift card would be perfect since the color I’ve chosen is from HD.

  33. Gardening for sure. My husband and I inherited our first garden from the previous owners of our house, and now I need some tools so I can take good care of it myself :)

  34. We have many projects around here, but my latest one is painting the half bathroom! Prime, painting, trim—it is gonna be fun!

  51. We were going to do some fun organizing and updating in our laundry room, but our microwave just broke! It’s one of the built in over the stove ones, so a replacement is a couple hundred bucks. So that’s where the budget is going!

  52. I want to repaint my front door a vibrant color so it will stand out from the rest of the house.

  53. I’m embarking on a whole house renovation. it’s exciting and daunting all at the same time. I could use some Home Depot funds!

  69. Hey there! I would really love to embark on a project of making pallet furniture for my back patio. I came across some really cool ideas and would love to get them started. Pallet planters, pallet seats and tables.. so cool. We have been in our home for 5 years and the only patio furniture we had (which was a gift for a birthday) fell apart in a storm two years ago. This seemed like the most cost efficient and unique thing I could find to fill that space. That’s what I would do if I won.
    Sharing to my Facebook page. :)

  70. My next project is one I’ve been avoiding… yard work. I don’t understand landscaping at all, and everything I need is so expensive! Soon, I will work on those garden beds, not that I know what to do.

  71. I am planning to remove the wallpaper in my bathroom, paint, replace the mirror, and the faucets. Would love a gift card!

But if I win, I’m using the money to make your shim planters for my mom and mother-in-law for Mother’s Day!

  153. I would like to start with matching my (garage sale find) 5$ end table to my recently rehabbed coffee table (also a 5$ garage sale find). That will entail staining on top and a coat of semi-gloss poly, and black matte paint on bottom. Love the contrast! Also, on a funner note, I’ve become obsessed with making a Terrarium for indoor plants and I need supplies! :) Fingers crossed!

  154. My next project is building shelves in the basement/garage workshop. $50 could buy a lot of 2×4’s!

  155. This weekend we are working on a new dining room table for my daughter. The church my husband grew up attending was recently remodeled. My father-in-law was able to rescue a large number of the kneelers from the pews. We have spent many hours stripping the fabric and padding from the kneelers. Last weekend we got the last of the tacks pulled out. This weekend we will start sanding the wood. The wood is over 100 years old and is beautiful. My daughter will have a piece of family history in her home. My in-laws were married in this church. Over the years we have attended baptisms, weddings and funerals at this church. We are looking forward to sitting at this table in our daughter’s home.

  156. We just found out we’re moving overseas and need to spruce up the bathroom before we rent this house!

  157. We have a few projects we need to tackle this year. As you drive up to our house the first thing you see are two ugly huge propane tanks. I want to hide them with plants since I can not put a fence around them.

  158. My next project is going to be a wood plank panel to hang our tv on. It will look better than it sounds!!

  159. Our next project is to finish our basement into a family/game room.

  160. My next project is to clean the basement! If I get really ambitious, I may re-waterproof the floor and walls… maybe.

  161. We’re just about to launch into a master bedroom overhaul, replacing a large bank of old, original windows with a new triple French door that leads out on the the back patio and boxing in a big reading nook/home office area (also original to the house) to create a walk-in closet. In conjunction with those big projects, we’re also going to seize the opportunity to repaint and replace the carpet in that room – it was well past its prime before we bought the house.

  162. I’m working on my kitchen. . priming paneling/walls right now. Then I have to paint the whole thing. So it’s going to be a long project and I’m gonna need lots of paint. :)

  163. We are in the midst of finishing our bathroom right now, but as soon as that’s done, we tackle the kitchen. We bought our house from my grandparents and the kitchen is currently pink; pink backsplash, pink walls, and pink countertop. Can’t wait to tackle it all and get rid of the Golden Girls PINK!

  164. We just bought a short sale this week and have a slew of home projects to begin! Top of the list is a kitchen remodel!

  165. I need to replace three dead hydrangeas and plant three window boxes.

  166. My next project is to replace the treads and railing on my stairs.

  169. Project 1863 is the name of our next project. We bought a Victorian house built in 1863 that was in one family the entire time and hasn’t been updated since a out the 60s. Fabulous charm but def needs a facelift. :)

  170. Painting and redecorating my office! This would come in handy!!

  171. We just built a home and have tons of yard work to finish…landscaping, seeding,etc.

  172. Well well well…what to pick from…let me think! I suppose I would have to say I would like to do a few updates in the room I seel to spend most of my time in …that being the kitchen. I would love to upgrade both the counter tops and the flooring in my kitchen!

  173. This would help awesomely with a bathroom remodel I’m planning!

  174. I’m already working on the next home improvement project–the yard and gardens. I’ve installed a rain barrel, top-dressed and over-seeded the lawn, and now I’m working on the gardens. I think I’ve already gone through about half of the 3 cubic yards of triple mix sitting in my driveway!

  175. My next home improvement project is my daughter’s playroom. She just turned 1 and has a million toys in our great room. I just bought a new rug for this space and it’s a lighter color so I feel pressured to hurry up and get started on her playroom! Her playroom will be in the basement so I have a lot of work ahead of me!

  176. I’m working on fixing up my bedroom, painting furniture and the walls.

  177. My project: Perfect Pantry. I’m clearing out our pantry and reorganizing the heck out of it! I’ve been pinning dream pantry ideas on Pinterest and have so many ideas how to get it ready to accommodate the food and household supplies for our family of five!

  178. Oh my gosh! I have a master bedroom, toddler’s room, laundry room, dinning room and bathroom to paint and put in new window trim, baseboards and flooring. We put an addition on our house and have been slowly working on our many objects.

  179. “Tell me what’s your next home improvement project? Is it painting, gardening, a repair or room remodel? ”

  180. I’m still on the lookout for great outdoor furniture for our balcony that’s not ridiculously expensive. Here’s to hoping!

  181. We are in the throws of a backyard makeover and a giftcard would really help – everything from a new shed to stone patio and rescreened porch, flowers, etc. We need it all! Thanks.

  182. My husband and I bought our first house this past fall. A foreclosure, enough said. We have made good progress and I am very blessed that I don’t have to work. But, one income means A LOT of DIY that I do single handedly while my hubby is at work and our two boys are running around the house. Next room up is our master bathroom that needs a complete overhaul.

  183. I am staining my backyard fence next. I’ve never stained anything before, so it should be interesting.

  184. It’s all about the garden this spring! I need some new planters for the porch! Thanks for the giveaway!

  185. I am changing up our headboard, it was upholstered and I barely got to cleaning it up, solid wood underneath all the stuffing and what not. Now, I am debating what to do to it, paint it? stain it? don’t know yet. But 50 bucks would be awesome to begin with :D

  186. I want to add some legs to our currently flat entertainment center! This means a trip to the HD for legs and spray paint!

  188. Next project…..BATHROOM! I live in a 1938 bungalow with the original canary yellow and black tiled bathroom. It is a sad room that needs some serious updating…..hopefully with some vintage inspired, modern functioning additions! The dream is to add some white bead board to the walls and white subway tiles inside the shower.

  189. We just bought a house built in 1976. There are so many projects to do! I would LOVE to build some simple shutters to play up the architecture.

  190. We’re renovating our bathroom and then I’ve got a couple of old chairs to reupholster.

  191. We are doing 3 remodels currently around our house. We are finishing our basement, getting ready to install hardwood floors, and staining our kitchen cabinents. It’s a lot of work but well worth the effort!

  195. Hi! I’m planning to tackle the master bedroom next. Painting is the number one priority. thanks!

  197. Next project is the garden…it needs some kind of edging and a fence to keep the grandkids out!

  198. I. Am hoping to redo a guest bathroom. 50.00 would be a big help. Thanks..pick me!

  199. My next project will be painting the walls in our new house, but I’ll be paying special attention to my daughter’s room. I’m especially excited about a ‘new’ art-deco-style antique vanity that I’ll be refinishing/painting in teal to match one of the colors in her bedspread.

  200. I am in the midst of a new kitchen and eating area remodel and could really use a HD gift card!

  235. Like at least one other reader, I need a new kitchen faucet. The leaky sprayer on the current one is getting completely out of control.

  236. we need new blinds! oh and i would love to repaint the living room!

  237. We’re remodeling our guest bedroom and bathroom but the next step is our cave of a bedroom. I’ve also been gardening (growing our own veggies) and hopefully we’ll get the weeds to die and the lawn to grow. If we can swing it I would love to repaint the living room and make new curtains for the living room too. Right now I’m working on making new curtains for the guest bedroom.

  239. I would give to my daughter who is fixing up a home they just purchased!

    Love your blog!

  241. I can use it for so many things, like a new kitchen faucet, updating all the baseboards, and gutting out the backyard to make it all sorts of pretty!

  242. My next project will definitely be outside. My house is pretty darn cute on the inside, but has zero curb appeal. I must fix this!

  254. We currently have three unfinished projects.. our patio fire pit (currently a mud bog with pavers everywhere), our bathroom (needs new paint after I got a wild hair and tore off the bead board), and the nursery for the new little one, (paint, paint, paint). Soooo 50.00 would totally help one of these poor sad areas! :)

  255. Just bought a house…so almost everything is a project…even packing!!

  256. My husband and I just bought our first home. Our laundry is in the middle of our kitchen so we want to disguise that and add some extra cabinetry.

  261. We are working on my daughters bedroom, a new curtian rod I have had a eye on at Home Depot would be the frosting on the cake… plus a few summer flowers or shrubs to spruce up our yard out front :) Oh how this would make my day!

  262. Where to start? I would love to take advantage of this weather and do some gardening!

  263. Two projects are in my immediate future – painting a bedroom for my son and LOTS of gardening to do!

  264. Painting everything! I want to repaint my dining room chairs to minty green instead of spring green, paint my dining table and my husbands dresser white, and paint a glass front bookcase that serves as the linen closet white and turquoise.

  265. We have some painting projects to finish in the home we just moved into–also redo and add to the flower beds at our new to us home. And when that is done–start a renovation of our kitchen–badly needed…..

  266. I have curtain rods and curtains to hang in the bedrooms and living room. I also want to paint my bedroom and the kitchen.

  267. Working on our kitchen now for 3 months and hubby is getting ready to repair a wall and paint.

  268. Our next home improvement project is the master bathroom! Ripping out the old shower and tub and reconfiguring the space.

  269. Strip the wallpaper in the MB and paint, tile the floor, well, a whole makeover.

  270. I need to paint and put up frames in my front room…it is just white walls!!!!

  271. My next home depot project is upgrading my kitchen. I purchased a new dishwasher at Home Depot on Monday while they were having a sale and yesterday my significant other bout a cabinet refacing kit to take us from the seventies into present day. LOL

  272. We just bought a house and we have several projects to tackle! Bathrooms, kitchen remodel, and backyard! Im in over my head! LOL :)

  273. Our next project is a wall of built-in bookshelves around our fireplace.

  274. We had to gut the backyard of the home we recently bought to get rid of the bamboo that had taken over the ENTIRE yard. We now have a backyard full of dirt and are trying to figure out where to start and what to plant. We need everything from sprinklers to grass to flowers, plants, fruit trees, etc. $$$

  275. After the living room, then we need to paint the doors we just had installed, and then finish the base moulding throughout, and then….

  276. We are putting crown moulding in our kitchen/family room! Well…. that and about five million other things I want to tackle….

  277. My whole house is the next project right now!! We just bought our first home and are in the middle of a complete remodel – currently working on painting walls and making curtains…

  278. Paint some furniture. Maybe my kitchen table and chairs. HMMM maybe turquoise or cream. The coffee table needs a serious face lift.

  279. Our backyard has been over taken by weeds, time for a major over haul! Home Depot’s garden department is calling our name!

  280. We are in the process of installing new floors, painting the entire inside, knocking out a wall to expand the living room, enclosing part of the garage laundry area to make a “laundry room”, AND turning a portion of the patio into an enclosed sunroom. Whew! So tired just thinking about it…but so very excited!

  281. we are just back in the states from two years living in bosnia. we have TONS of home projects to tackle, but i think i will start with painting the outdoor furniture to enjoy the deck in this beautiful weather!

  282. Need to freshen up the kitchen with paint and new moulding for the kitchen doors.

  283. I’ll be doing gardening once the weather is stable enough for flowers, but in the meantime, I am going to be finishing up my guest room I started decorating around Thanksgiving. I’d love the giftcard to buy a lamp and paint for some projects.

  284. We’re working on the sun room right now… I may never finish the putty-sand, putty-sand cycle. The former owners didn’t put any drain in there when they added the room, so the water damage is pretty bad in some spots. So is the damage from plant roots that took over, twisting underneath the trim and floor. But enough putty and sanding will fix it!
    So, finish puttying then prime and paint the trim.

  285. I am working on two projects, sprucing up my garden and patio area and remodeling the bathroom. This card would sure come in handy!

  286. I have a WHOLE house that needs a little something EVERYWHERE!!! Let see the door way needs framed out? The back door (and front door now that I think of it) needs repainted? The wholwl down stairs bathroom NEEDS help? Do I have to pick just one?

  288. I’m going to refinish a pedestal table I got for $25 on craigslist. As soon as it stops raining.

  289. I just moved and we now have an old shed that’s falling apart. It’s the perfect size though, so I’m repairing it and adding plants and window boxes and hopefully making it a little gem in our yard, rather than an eye sore!

  290. I’m working on a raised bed garden, installing window boxes, landscape beds, and various other outdoor projects. LOADS of stuff to do but so excited to finally get the window boxes installed!

  291. Our next home improvement project is completely gutting our basement bathroom and starting from scratch…. We’re gonna need tiles, new shower, more tiles, new toilet, and some really pretty paint colours. Wanna come over and help? ;)

  302. I am currently working on the master bathroom and have identified a few things that I like, but this sure would be handy.

  303. We built our house a few years ago, so every spring, I try to add more to our landscaping. This year, I’d like to add a few more trees, and I’m planting more around our patio. A gift card towards plants would be great!

  363. The garage and tiling our back stoop are the next two projects we have to tackle. Hoping to find the tile you used for your circular patio at Home Depot. Love it!

  364. LOVE home depot! I am in the midst of two bedroom makeovers and of course, planting things out in the yard this time of year. So a gift card would be awesome!

  365. We’re in the process of flooring half of our house. With that, we’ve been painting and rearranging as well. Sure could use the Home Depot card, so yes, I want to enter–count me in!!

  366. I’ve been working hard on my garden check list. Next up, I would like to replace the exterior lights along my patio to finish my 2012 garden spruce up.

  367. I am going to start with painting the front door….and work from there!!

  368. my next project (of many) is to make a fire pit using the retaining wall blocks.

  369. We need a pressure washer and an umbrella for the patio would be lovely in the Texas heat!
    Thank you!

  370. My next little project is to replace the hardware on my front door. My next big project is a kitchen remodel.

  371. Oh my backyard could use some major TLC, my hubbie has in mind to redo the retaining wall. Granted last time it rained we did have a mini waterfall in our backyard so maybe he is on to something.

  372. I am planning to add some new cabinetry the kitchen to add a much needed pantry. I hope I win!

  373. I’m gradually replacing all of the light fixtures in our house. they were a bit blah when we purchased the house but it’s a slow (and pricey!) transition!

  374. Thinking about changing the color of my exterior doors and getting new hardware. Thanks for the giveaway!

  375. The projects are endless! But today I’m finishing up a painting project – stripes in the hallway! Up next – more painting of course.

  376. A multitude of projects, let see…outside we are working on landscaping, new fence, smaller flower beds, new patio…inside painting master bedroom, shelving for the living room, and various other small tasks. Once that is done, then there is always something else lurking.

  377. Home Depot rocks! They were so helpful when I remodeled my kitchen and bathroom. Now I am working on my garden and installing an irrigation system. A Home Depot gift card would enable my garden improvements go much further than my budget allows.

  378. While we have a LOT of projects going on in our house right now, the biggest undertaking at the moment is the nursery! Our baby girl is due in August and we are hoping to have a cozy room for her. It will also be the guest room when we have visitors, so we have been building custom pieces of furniture that are multifunctional.

  379. Moving one of my daughters into my other daughter’s room to turn that room into a hopeful foster child’s room!

  380. Just posted your giveaway on my FB:) thanks for these great giveaways.

  381. Taking on a backyard makeover. Big yard, big job!!! Trying to garner divine inspiration to make this project fabulous!

  382. I am going to redo the stairs (in my breakfast room pass-through) by taking them down to the actual plywood (removing ugly carpet), adding dark hardwood stairs, new tobacco twist banisters painted white, and a sisal runner to the hardwood. The Home Depot $ would be a great start!

  383. We’re considering putting our house on the market, so we have a lot of tweeking to do. We need to paint the front porch and deck, replant some of the flower beds (the deer have been busy), touch up some of the walls inside, etc., etc. :)

  384. My next home improvement project is giving my plaster walls a skim coat to get rid of the horrible orange peel texture. I have many projects on the list but this is the main one I want to accomplish.

    Thanks for the chance!

  385. Many, many projects! Landscaping, roofing, replacing rotting doors, new carpets, yikes!

  386. We are building another raised bed this weekend for more veggies. Inside the house I am going to decoupage one wall in my office in vintage advertisement posters. Wish there were more days in a weekend!

  387. Just posted a link to my Facebook wall! Whooo hooo! Would love to win this. Going there in a few hours!

  388. For my next project, I’m searching for an older floor set television to turn into a dog bed for my puppy. In the meantime I’ll be refinishing an old jewelry box to match my new bedroom set.

  389. The on-going list of projects is huge! Probably the most pressing would be refinishing a dresser for my soon-to-be-born twin girls. Please pick me!

  390. We are putting all new windows in our home, new siding, painting all rooms and adding new woodwork and trim everywhere inside. Whew we are going to be busy. Doing this all by ourselves.

  391. My summer projects include painting the master bed and bath and working on painting and organizing the game room. A gc would come in mighty handy and Home Depot is my go-to store! In fact, I’m on my way now. It is Saturday morning. Where else would I be?!?

  392. my next project is working on the landscaping around the pool! I want it to be an oasis of relaxation :)

  393. updating a dresser , finishing my pantry , starting my kitchen makeover! so many things

    Great giveaway .. thanks for hosting
    Hugs
    Brooke

  394. Since my 2 oldest have joined the military and are leaving next week and in July, I’ll be doing lots of painting…specifically the bedroom!

  395. We have the front flower bed that needs a total makeover, and I’m getting ready to clean-up and clean-out our son’s bedroom now that he’s off at college. Lots to do – so little time, and even less $ to work with – will be fun to see how (and when) it all turns out.

  396. I’ve been telling me 9- year old daughter that I’d make her a new bed and paint some of her accessories the colors she wants, not what we choose for her! Also want to add some organization to her closet to contain the stuffed animal zoo she’s collected.

  397. Well I guess I have to be honest, I’d be regifting the card to my mother. After being out of the workforce for a year I’m just getting back on my feet. With the help of my mother I wouldn’t of survived. She adores the outdoors and says her yard work is her therapy. So after the countless hours of therapy she gave me during a very rough year for me i’d pass it on to her. She loves being outside doesn’t matter if its weeding her flower beds, tending to the garden or mowing she loves it.

  398. I just bought my FIRST HOUSE!!! It’s an old rowhouse, so it is full of projects to do (redoing upstiars layout, adding bathrooms, digging out the basement amd finishing it).

  399. My husband and I moved into our first house on Monday and this weekend we are tackling our first project together! Every room in the house has a horribly green accent wall. So, we are painting today and it will be an adventure!With your advice from this blog, we are ready to transform this house into OUR home! :)

  400. I am going to put up curtains and paint the living room in my new apartment. I would also like to finish a small tiling job. :)

  401. My next project starts this morning. Heading out to Home Depot soon. Planning on painting 2 old shelving units (circa 1980) from ugly faux wood to white. Am planning on painting the backs of the shelves either turqouise or celery green and perhaps may install that paintable bead board wallpaper on the backs first (if I can find the wallpaper in stock). I will be painting old Ikea coffee tables the same colour (either green or turqoise). I will also be painting a set of drawers white and may (or may not) put them in my livingroom -I’ll decide once I have seen the finished project and whether or not I like it in the space. If not, it may go in a storage area.

  402. We are starting to remodel our stairs from carpet to stained, so a gift card would come in handy for supplies.

  403. We just bought a house and will be moving in in 2 weeks. It has royal blue and hunter green carpets, green marble tile and wallpaper on almost every wall. So yeah, this would put a dent in things! :)

  404. I’m going to be painting the interior rooms of our new addition. Behr paint + primer, here I come!

  405. Way too many projects in my head! Building a new shelf in my laundry room and putting new wood chips in my front garden on high on the list right now. Thanks for the giveaway!

  406. My next project is Let’s Get Down and Dirty in the Garden! I’m ready to plant. I’ve tilled, spread organic fertilizer compliments of my sheep, and I’m ready to dig in!

  407. I’m going to refinish a dresser that has been in my family for years. Never done this kind of thing before so I’m really excited about it!

  408. Spring is here in PA so my next project is gardening! Flowers for my containers and I want to try a container garden this year. Wish me luck with that! ;)

  409. We’ve gutted our second floor and starting from scratch! Putting in a bedroom and entertainment room.

  410. We are beginning to start a playroom renovation. We have a retro pool table and want to design the rest of the room to fit the look of the pool table. It will be a lot of work, but a very exciting project!

  411. we are in the middle of a complete kitchen remodel. By the time we finally get this done, I think we are going to need a good long break from projects. Although that carpet is looking really dingy……

  412. My next project is built in bookcases in the den and then painting the dark cypress paneling in there! Can’t wait for light and airy!

  413. So much to do, so little time/money. I think first, I want to paint my white walls in my office to something more soothing and interesting.

  414. I’m hoping to tackle a family room makeover since it’s the only room in the house that has not been upgraded since we moved in seventeen years ago! Home Depot Gift Card would certainly come in handy!

  415. I will be putting a hair salon in my basement! It will be a mix of industrial& glamour and will have many DIY projects. Wish me luck:)

  416. New Kitchen! I have no kitchen! Well, we’re in the middle of a remodel, new cabinets and all. After weighing the pros and cons of moving or remodeling, we decided to stay in our current home and refresh the kitchen.
    Just about an overwhelming project at times, but I will have a kitchen eventually. Took out and donated old 1970s cabinets, and now trying to put it all back together. So difficult choosing tile for a backsplash – I would use any “extra” money to purchase beautiful tile!

  417. We’ll begin our finishing stages of the outdoor kitchen and patio area redo by building a stone retaining wall around a new flower bed and then desiging the landscape in that area.

  418. Just the amount I need to finish refinishing a gorgeous dining room table!! This would buy the products to sprig and refinish and buy three boards for a room divider!

  419. My next project is building a potting bench and a garden shed to hold all my supplies! Thank you for the giveaway.

  420. My husband and I are getting ready to buy our first home…I’m pretty sure we will be headed to the Home Depot in the near future for many, many cans of paint! Thanks for the giveaway ;-)

  421. I have to put up a tile backsplash all around my kitchen for my first minor project and the major one is finishing the basement bathroom and bar.

  422. Our next project is painting … our entire house! Our goal is to get it all done this summer. :)

  423. Our next project is making our spare bedroom (current junk room) into a craft room.

  424. My next project is to remove my old carpet in the living and dining room. I will replace it with a hardwood, or bamboo floor. I will definitely make a trip to Home Depot for ideas and suggestions.

  425. When the crape myrtles grew gloriously, the vegetable garden became too shady. It was moved out into a sunny spot in the yard. BUT that left the shady area in need of a shade garden. So that’s the next project. That and finishing the painting of the office, including the use of one of those formica painting kits for the countertops in the built-ins. Because the old green formica is just NOT going to be funny with the new red walls, no matter what my husband says.

    Well, we do need a new refrigerator, one that only freezes food in the freezer section. Yep. That would be good. Oh, and replacing the granite tiles on the countertops with solid granite. OH, and the master bath …

  426. We need to do so many things. The yard need pine needles. The house needs some paiting and inside there are lots of little odd jobs that need some attention.

  427. We are still working on the outside of your house- paint, new roof, front entry addition. I need lights for the pretty addition and would love to use free money towards that! We have a 100+ year old home so the projects never end here!

  428. I can’t name only ONE project as I have too many in the works. Remodeling a breakfast room, changing paint color in the dining room, doing my own faux wainscoting in the dining as well as up the stairs to the 2nd floor, chalk painting some antique furniture for the breakfast room and the dining room…and the list goes on.

  429. Gardening is where my mind is right now. March was unusually warm, then April was very cold and drizzly. I’ve been impatiently waiting for the weather to warm up to get going on adding some colour to the dreary gardens. This year, I plan on using begonias instead of impatiens, as suggested by Mark Cullen (Canada’s favourite garden expert).

  430. We are moving across the country, and I think painting will be our first big project in our new home!

  431. We’re spread out pretty thin right now — we’re remodeling a dining room, including changing out lighting, redoing some of the built-ins and woodwork, and painting, and we’re redoing a bathroom, and we’re working on our landscaping. Hmmm. I am suddenly feeling pretty tired.

  432. We have been waiting for our plants and trees to come back this spring after last summer’s record heat and drought in Southeast Texas. Wondrously, most of it has come back, except the front flower bed, which I have replanted, and three trees.

    Digging out and replacing those three trees will be our project…I am thinking crepe myrtle and a white peach tree…

  433. Well, my list is long indeed, but we’re still working on the new room redo for our five year old daughter. So right now that means spackle, primer, paint…oh and before all that a new window. :-)

  434. Where to start? We have some painting to do in my boys bedroom, the yard is in desperate need of help and the list goes on… and on.. :)
    Cute shoes by the way!

  435. I was inspired by your carriage house kitchen makeover since your “before” photos looked similar to our kitchen. After showing them to my husband, I was finally able to convince him we should paint our cabinets so our kitchen could look more like your “after” pic’s! I have been working on him for years and he didn’t agree until he got a visual on how great it could look…thanks!

  436. Hi! We are planning to paint the upper level and also the kitchen cabinets in the next few months. Also put up a kitchen backsplash and new hardware. Got my work cut out!! :)

  437. My bedroom furniture is a lot of heavy dark wood. I have fallen in love with all the white on white bedrooms. You know, white furniture, white wall, white everything, with pops of color in the accessories. So I am painting everything. Bed, dressers, nightstands, walls, lamps, mirrors, everything. I’m using spray paint for the accessories, which are a lot of little craft projects. Plus, I’m building a makeup vanity for my bedroom. I want to sit to put my makeup on. I cannot WAIT until it’s complete!

  438. Sooo many projects, don’t know which one to start with, kitchen, bathroom, basement, living room or office. I’ll be doing one of them.

  439. Our next project is probably replacing the faucet and light fixture in our powder room. $50 from Home Depot would help speed that project along!

  440. In the process of turning my son’s jr loft into a firetruck. :) And converting my old college loft into a pink jr loft/playhouse underneath for my daughter. :) Thanks for the give-away!! :)

  441. Our next project will be replacing the fence!!! HD gift card would help!!! :)

  442. We are buying a new house, well an old house, really, so we will have plenty of projects to keep us busy! In the meantime, I’m trying my hand at building furniture!

  443. Refacing our outdoor front entrance. New door, new window boxes, shrubs! HD gift card would really help us out!

  444. Patch & Paint Kitchen: Time to patch the drywall from a plumbing repair and since we have to paint that spot… I thnk it’s time to paint the backsplash a rich red and the other walls of the kitchen a creamy white all to coordinate with the granite. We moved into this house in October and it’s time to bring out own vibe to the kitchen and what a great instigator.. plumbing repair!

  445. Our next project is sprucing up our landscaping. We plan to build a fire pit and finish an empty garden.

  446. Our next project is doing a full landscape job in our yard. It’s currently a blank slate (aka, a dirt pile). We have a lot of work ahead of us.

  447. I just purchased my first home so my next major project is painting …EVERY room! Thanks for all of your fantastic tips, they help me see home ownership as a fun adventure rather than a series of scenes from the movie “Money Pit! “

  448. My next project is to fill my front porch planters with some beautiful flowers.

  449. Our current project is finishing the guest room, and then we are going to tackle re-surfacing a concrete patio with tile…Thanks for the chance to win.

  450. Our next project will be to spruce up the office basement with some fresh paint and updated flooring.

  451. Working on the gardens, as we speak…well at least the hubs has already headed out there. *giggle* I am waiting to put the clothes into the dryer. I have several planters that need to be filled yet.

  452. We have so many projects….I’m turning an upstairs bedroom into a playroom, I still have 3 furniture pieces to paint and of course planting flowers! That will probably happen first!

  453. We’re currently shopping for a new kitchen faucet, so this would be perfect! Thanks for the giveaway.

  454. I am in the middle of a project and would love a Home Depot card! I am creatining a new home office space for my husband! :-)

  455. I have all project types on my list which call for frequent visits to Home Depot. Right now, I am focusing on two important items: getting our downstairs bathroom painted and finding a great room ceiling fan before the summer heat arrives.

  456. I will paint, paint, paint! All new colors for a radical departure from years of brown and beige. Happy May!

  457. I am redoing our half bath which involves removing 1980 mauve wallpaper which appears to have been adhered to the walls with liquid nails. ;-)

  458. My next project is to get my home office whipped into shape. I spend 8+ hours each day in there and it’s a complete disaster!

  459. Awesome giveaway! Our kitchen faucet broke two days ago so we need to buy a new faucet asap! Thanks for the chance.

  460. Our next project is the bathroom and it’s gonna be a doozie!

  461. EVERYTHING! We bought an 1879 farmhouse fixer-upper last September, soo…

    Next on the list is: finish the bedroom (closet doors), pull the paneling off the dining room, plant the garden, clean up the upstairs enough for guests, and then we tackle the bathroom of doom!

  462. My next project is remodeling the outdoor screened in porch. Involves tiling the porch floor, rescreening, repainting, and of course, the fun part of redecorating!

  463. I hope our next project entails a new house (ours is currently on the market), but incase it doesn’t, our next project will be a raise flower bed in our backyard.

  464. Seriously need to paint my kitchen cabinets. Many thanks for the chance to win!!

  465. My next project is painting the laundry room. A very nice coastal blue. Sherwin Williams Jack Frost

  466. My next project is painting my kitchen. We bought our house new and all the rooms in my home have been painted, EXCEPT the kitchen. Thank you for the chance.

  467. We are building a new chicken coop for our new chicks. We are making it from salvaged materials but know we need to purchase a few things. Winning the gift card would be a great help!

  468. Actually we have many projects coming up. A paint job for my artroom and some funiture for it, a broken kitchen sink that needs replacing, and our gardening shovel just splintered the other day! Always something to get done around here. :)

  469. We are finishing up the nursery for my daughter. Mostly a few craft projects, but some touch up painting needs to be done and maybe some closet organizing

    demureprincess7(at)gmail(dot)com

  470. we are getting ready for our new home construction..so this would be VERY useful!

  471. I’m on the 2nd NON-successful paint color on my front door. This would totally go toward another round of paint.

  472. Working on a garden pathway and kid-friendly outdoor play area!

  473. we need to finish our deck which we started last year (had to stop in the fall for various reasons) with railings etc.

  474. I am working on sprucing up my kitchen cabinets and adding a backsplash!Also I want to update the lighting.

  475. I’ve been following your blog for awhile now, never commented. But on my way out to Home Depot I saw this post! I had to comment for a chance to win! I am at Home Depot most EVERY weekend!

    Hugs!

  476. My next project = painting my kitchen cabinets and adding new hardware. Thanks for the giveaway!

  477. I will be painting. In a rental but plan on being here at least two years. A little money on paint will help it feel more like “home”.

  478. You know, I really need to just invest in some new, high quality tools to help will all of my future projects. On the top of the list would be a reliable drill!

  479. Our current project is landscaping our yard. We had to borrow everything from nighbors so far, so it would be NICE if we had our own!

  480. My next projects are to getting color on the walls of my soulless developer cookie-cutter house! Off-white everything be gone! $50 would help quite a bit with the paint budget! Thanks for the chance to win.

  481. Our next project is a garden shed – still to come… fencing & an apple tree or 2:)

  482. I need to redo my living room – it’s the last room in the house for me to make beautiful!

  483. Paint for sure! We are moving into our first home next weekend :)

  484. Our next project is probably getting rid of some serious weeds that are growing up in our so-called garden.

  485. I actually just finished painting my living room. But, I still have gardening to do and I want to refinish the table in my daughter’s playroom. So, this gift card would definitely come in handy.

  486. I could do so many things..finish repainting the trim in our house (downstairs is done, but upstairs isn’t), replace some overgrown shrubbery, or get started on my master bath redo. There’s always lots I can use at the Home Depot!

  487. We have a lot of projects to do in our house, but right now we’re in the middle of redoing our family room and sunroom.

  488. Our next project is the hall bathroom! We have our floor tile but need paint, mirror, lighting, towel bar… That WAY blows $50! LOL!! Thanks for the opportunity!

  489. My next project is repairing a pallet and turning it into a planter. I’m going to use scrap would to make bottoms on the pallet and then screw it to the side of my garage then add dirt and flowers! I love using old pallets to build new things and there are many uses for old pallets. After the garden pallets I want to make a coffee table out of pallets and put wheels on the bottom. :)

  490. We just made a list of all the things we want to do in our house…and I think my husband may have thrown up a little.
    First up, is to put in a new range hood and take down the ugly broken microwave to make more space above our stove top!

  491. My next project is putting some color on the walls in my soulless cookie-cutter developer house! Off-white everything be gone! Thanks for the chance to win.

  492. I think painting our huge master bedroom is next, the previous owner painted the entire thing (including the tray ceilings g) this sandy adobe color. Ew. My husband would argue that the lawn needs the money,he has beea going at it nonstop since we bought the house in January. Poor guy can’t beat the weeds.

  493. Our current project is a master bedroom makeover. I just purchased three Behr paint color samples this week, that $50 gift card would almost pay for the paint needed for our project. Thanks for the give away! :)

  494. The list is long, but right now we’ve gutted our guest room, insulated the outside wall, having it dry walled, then paint!

  495. My project is painting and adding crown molding to the guest bedroom.

  496. My first project is planting my vegetable garden and the second is installing a tile backsplash in the kitchen. Thanks for the opportunity.

  497. Our next project is ripping out carpet and putting down some more durable flooring in a kids’ play space. It will be my first attempt at doing flooring all by myself:)

  498. So many projects! High on my list is to paint/refinish some furniture for the baby who’s due to arrive in September. Thanks for the contest! :)

  499. We have a million projects,but the one that needs done soonest would be a tiling project!

  500. My next project is moving. My husband’s in the military and we are moving again which means a chance to redecorate without having to actually buy anything (much) new. Twelve homes in 19 years!

  501. I’ve been working on a planter in the front of my house and have been having the hardest time making it look great. Last weekend I was at Home Depot scouring the garden department for plants. I still need to head back to get something to fill an awful gap that has left my planter looking very sparse and lonely!

  502. Since Spring has sprung, I am ready to get to work on making my front porch cozy and inviting. A gift card to Home Depot sure would help!

  503. Our next project is to PAINT! We moved into our home a year ago and while it was painted nicely by the previous owners, the colors weren’t what we wanted. We FINALLY are going to do it soon!

  504. painting master bathroom cabinets, need stripping and sanding, sot it’s going to be a big job

  505. We are currently re-doing our kitchen (it’s going painfully slow…). My next big project is to paint my cabinets and I have high hopes of getting my hands on a paint sprayer to make the job a little easier!!

  506. Doors. Oh my goodness. We have several to replace plus we plan to get an old fashioned screen door for the laundry room. Slamming screen door= sounds if summer!!

  507. My next project is one I have put off but desperately need to do: new shrubs in front if my house.

  508. Our next project is hardwood floors throughout the house. We have been in our house for 10 years and the carpets are beginning to get quite worn out and we are ready to get rid of them and replace them with hardwood. Big project, but so looking forward to the finished project.

  509. I don’t seem to be able to just stick to one thing at a time…I am painting inside when the weather doesn’t permit me to garden -Been diggin things up so I have lots of empty space to replant! so I’d say both of those are next!

  510. Now that the front gardens are all cleaned and mulched – they need flowers and color! 50.00 would help with that!

  511. Next project… finishing all the home improvement projects I’ve started and haven’t completed yet!

  512. My next project is to stencil an accent wall in my 12 year-old daughter’s room. I’m torn between creating a stencil myself or just getting bold and doing it free hand. I think if there’s any chance that she wants symmetry, I should probably use a stencil. :-)

  513. This morning I will be helping with our annual neighborhood cleanup of the greenbelt area we are blessed to have. After that I hope to start pulling more weeds in my own beds.

  514. I’ve got some gardening projects that I can’t wait to get started on. I’m so glad that it’s finally warming up.

  515. Turning the guest room into a nursery for our little girl who is coming soon!

  516. What am I not planning on doing?! Right now I’m repainting my Grandmothers china cabinet. I’m also re-doing the back yard. After those 2 things are done I’m going to concentrate on my bathroom! Yeah lot’s of stuff going on :D

  517. I’m in the middle of a kitchen makeover right now….painting walls and cabinets, new light fixtures, new sink, new flooring, etc. This gift card would really help out, thanks for the chance to win! :)

  518. Oh man! Finishing up a kitchen remodel, then finishing up a bathroom remodel, then doing a nursery – all before August!

  519. My next projects involve painting furniture and planting a garden on my apartment balcony!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  520. I’m planning to paint all the mismatched furniture in my little office white! Since my “office” is at the end of the kitchen, this will have a big impact. :)

  521. I have a couple projects lined up that I’m hoping to complete within the next month. I have to finish painting my living room and create a new vegetable garden in my yard. Wish me luck!

  522. Redoing all of our landscaping! Even putting in stone borders!… But would love to start wainscoting inside though :)

  523. Hubby and I are saving up for a bathroom remodel. We could really use this! Thanks for the giveaway!

  524. I was just at Home Depot yesterday to start our vegetable garden!! Next up a PATIO to watch our veggies grow from! ; )

  525. I am really ready to hit the patio! Once we know the rain will stay away for at least a couple of days, we are going to do it!

  526. HI Kate :)
    we are turning an old tree stump into a flower planter and finishing up our chicken coop!

  527. We’re actually in the middle of renovating both of our bathrooms. Only planned on updating one, but we found water damage that spread to both bathrooms- ah, the pleasures of being a homeowner! So we’ll be hitting up Home Depot with or without a gift card!

We painted it last weekend and had to wait to add the bead board and chair rail till we can afford it. There is a waynes coating wallpaper that I would love to try. This would be an awesome way for us to get that done! Thank you for this opportunity!!

  538. We’re working on doing some serious sprucing up in our front, side and back yards. One of these gift cards would be great!!

  556. We are planning a laundry room make over. I am hoping this will help ease away the pain of doing laundry!!!

Weeding (but that’s a weekly thing) and repotting a fruit tree… building a farm house table for our back patio… hanging some lights… oh my gosh. We have a lot to do!

  558. My current project (for which I went to Home Depot) is repainting my home office, hanging blinds, putting on new hardware…My next project will be my laundry room, organizing the closet (big empty hole) and the wall, removing wallpaper, painting, etc.

  559. Every room needs help :)! Think I’d invest in some paint as a starter.

    Thanks for the opportunity!!!

  560. I’m painting 6 pieces of furniture around my house. My parents are coming to visit from Brazil and I want the house to be in tip top shape!

  561. As I write this my hubby is in our garage painting interior doors. Not exciting, but necessary!

  563. We are starting the planning process for a total kitchen reno! The awesome marbled blue laminate counters have seen better days and need to go to countertop heaven ASAP!!

  565. I am doing a board and batten treatment in my master bedroom. A nice icy teal paint on the top and a creamy white on the bottom. Big change from the sage green walls and splashes of red throughout the room. Cant wait! Best of luck to everyone who enters.

  566. Next up is painting our kitchen cabinets and building a fire place mantle. fun summer projects here we come!

    Always love reading CG!

  568. It’s either painting or putting in a backsplash in the kitchen! :)

  570. Our next project is our back yard . . . putting in edging around the flower beds, laying bark, building a fence, etc. Can’t wait to see the finished product!

  571. My hubby is working on a new bed for us, while I am finally getting around to planting my container garden!

  572. I started my gardening but have more to do. So it would be more in the garden or making a headboard for my bedroom…hmm…

  573. Needing to Paint, Paint, and more Paint. We just bought a 70s fixer upper last year. Needing to paint the exterior doors. Inside doors. and all bathroom cabinets. sigh. It’s a love/hate relationship with paint. :)

  574. We are planting this weekend and I am painting the planters first – maybe even doing your wood shim planter as well. After that I’d like to complete the frame wall I’ve been planning for 6 months…yikes!

  575. we just finished a new vegetable garden, sandbox and stone steps in the backyard. now it’s time for a porch swing, painting an old chalkboard to put up in the playroom, and fixing our porch door, along with some more little projects.

  576. Our next project is renovating/remodeling our garage into a family room.

  577. I would use this to replace my girls’ little garden bench…it was destroyed last year when hurricane Irene came up to Connecticut and sent one of our trees crashing down on it…now that it is starting to warm up, my girls are really missing their bench…we use it for our outdoor tea parties.

  578. Just moved to a new house after living in a condo for all of my adult life.
    One of the things I’m most excited about is having a backyard. Can’t wait to try my hand at gardening and growing produce.

  579. We just ordered a countertop from Home Depot yesterday. We’ve been updating our kitchen and the countertop, sink and backsplash are the last of it. Next is a new three season room. We’re waiting on estimates and can’t wait to get underway.

  581. We are closing on our home Wednesday!!! First order of business before moving in is painting!!!! We have a few small things to do otherwise, but thankfully it is move in ready, which is exciting too! Thanks for the chance to win! $50 could really help us get our paint on! :)

  583. I have two bathrooms that need repainting this summer. $50 would get the job done.

  584. Well we’re continuing to plug away at our addition/remodel but given the lovely weather I’m itching to do some outdoor planting!

  586. so bummed we missed you in Rosevile. we are moving soon- so repairs are on our list!

  587. I am redoing a downstairs family room, which means repainting, putting in bookshelves and more! So this would be a huge help! Thank you for the great giveaway.

  588. Oh my, thank you for the giveaway. It’s great!
    I bought my house in 2004 and it’s a 1960s Florida home and still contains the flamingo pink bathroom that was popular back then. I’m impressed that it has held up so well, but I’d really like a more ‘spa-like’ bathroom. The room is very tiny (VERY, VERY tiny) so although it wouldn’t take much to improve, it’s the big things that I have to change – fixtures and fittings – and not just a lick of paint and a new bath mat! A $50 gift card would be very useful ;o)

  589. What a great giveaway!

    I’m hoping to get the bog removed from the front door area and replace it with some pavers/blocks and ground covers. Hopefully, it will help prevent so much sand/mud from entering via the dogs’ paws too!

  590. Next project…I need a drill something bad! We’re in a new house and I have shelves to hang and curtains to hang and …….
    PS Love the shoes!

  591. Ack! I practically live at Home Depot at the moment. In the middle of a major bathroom upgrade, with other rooms to follow on. Trying to do it on a budget of 50 cents (which is all we have left after buying the house). I could so use that gift card!

  592. Since all my school courses will be online for the summer, I plan to paint my living room & kitchen! It’s open concept with 12 foot ceiling. I will complete this living room this summer! I have a lot of work ahead of me & as soon as I get back from my vacation, I’m going on the attack!

  593. Wish I’d been able to going to see you in Roseville. Had to miss it. :(
    Next project is dividing my iris bulbs. They are over grown for the pot. They are super special bulbs because they were my great grandmother’s. Thanks Kate!

  594. We just bought a house! We’re so excited to Reno the kitchen into my dream farmhouse space! Lots of DIY projects coming up!!

  595. Oh gosh! We REALLY need this! We just found out today that our air conditioner/heater unit must be replaced… we were planning on listing our house in three weeks. We still have our outdoor patio lights to be fixed and a leaky outdoor faucet. My husband wants to go back to school to be a nurse… and we need to downsize so he can go. Home depot is going to be our very BEST buddy for quite a while as we work to try to complete all of these updates in a timely manner! *fingers crossed!*

  596. Next home improvement project will definitely be the back yard!

  597. Hi Kate, Thanks for the great giveaway. I would have to use my gift card to spruce up the yard…all we have is dirt at the moment and it needs help. Thanks again, Lori

  604. I want to refinish some furniture and make some shelves to hang on the wall!

  605. My next project is to finish the 1/2 sanded desk I salvaged from the dumpster. All I need is a sander that is not powered by me!

  606. I am in the middle of a bathroom tiling project and I realized I could use a brand spankin new tiolet! Rather than put the old one back in!

  607. My next home improvement project is to build a platform for my washer and dryer so I can store my laundry baskets underneath.

  621. My office and basement are the next organizing/remodeling projects on hand!!!!

  626. My next project is the master bedroom. I’ve spent lots of time on the rest of the house and now its time to get my space the way I want it! Why do we always leave the most important spaces till last?

  627. My next project is a home office for me. The room is tiny but needs MAJOR work thanks to the previous owners creative interpretation of the words “built in”

  628. We’re currently working to spruce up our garden, so this gift card would come in very handy!

  629. Backyard de-clutterization. Even that description is an understatement for the overhaul it needs!

  635. I’m wanting to put board and batten up in my sons room. Bought the paint already. Just need the board and batten……

  636. I have a lot in my mind, but my personal favorite is to redo the stairs. Ugly carpet off, newly stained wood on.

  637. My next big project is getting our flower beds cleaned up for summer – mulching, planting, etc.

  638. out of all the hundreds of things I want to around our house, the tops on my list are building a raised vegetable garden, and making my 2 year olds rooms into big girl and big boy rooms. There’s a lot I could do with a HD giftcard!

  649. Our next project is to paint our built-in laundry cabinet creamy white and paint our house exterior.

  650. We are in the process of changing everybody’s room in our house except for my husband and I.

  660. Where do I even begin… probably more paint! I’ve painted 6 out of 9 in our new home since we moved in last December. And then there’s three bathrooms and a ton of hallways… still have our work cut out for us!

  661. I have been wanting to update my 20yr old son’s room for years. Now that he only uses it when he is home from college i think its time! Thanks for the chance!

  662. My next project is to reign in my maddening closet, streamline and reduce my clothes, donate and then build a new closet and vanity area for more sanity when getting ready in the morning!

  778. I have a house full of wallpaper, not offensive wallpaper, but just the kind that needs to go away. Our dining room is the first project, painting the dark green embossed paper below the chair rail a creamy color and the wall above – not sure yet but maybe a terra cotta or just a neutral. Anything would be an improvement! Then drapes for the bare windows and a new table runner and seat covers.

  779. Our Next Project: Dark bamboo floor in our entry with a curve…we’ve been putting it off for weeks….we love Home Depot and that’s even where we bought our bamboo flooring:)

  780. We are thinking of a kitchen reno, so the giveaway will help. Thanks for the giveaway.

  781. Hi. We just bought a house that is a fixer upper. It’s a teeny tiny little house that was built in 1950. It needs lots of updates along with just general repairs. My project list is long! I would like to start with painting and work my way up to tiling, flooring and replacing light fixtures, to name a few. Home Depot is the closest home improvement store so it would be great to win a gift card! :)

  782. My next home improvement project is the yard and painting the outside of the house. I have all sorts of ideas and plans for flowers and landscaping. I am so excited about it!!

  783. Home Depot! My favorite store!!! I need to hang a ceiling fan in my bedroom, hang a stained glass window in the living room of our new house, put in taller toilets, spray weeds all over the place, build a wall to keep out blowing dirt, add flowers to this landscaping, make repairs and paint the old house so it can be sold…just for starters. A gift certificate would sure help! Thanks.

  784. We just moved and have bought a fixer upper so our entire house is our next home reno project. However, the biggest project that I can’t wait to tackle is the creation of a downstairs bathroom tied in with the kitchen reno. They go hand in hand because the concrete floor has to be busted up in the kitchen to add pipes to for the bathroom…..yeah it’s going to be insane. So we need all of the help moneywise that we can get!

  785. Well, gotta get the house ready for sale for an upcoming move to NC. So I’ve gotta repaint most of the inside of the house but will start with the entryway and hall for now. The rest is soon to come along with various and sundry little updates. Change sometimes comes quite fast!!!

  786. Oooh, the possibilities! I have some painting and gardening projects in mind for the summer! What fun! Thanks for making 3 of us very happy!

  787. We have lots to work on in our new home! Refinishing a buffet and new flower beds are on the top of the agenda!

  788. Our next book project is painting our house. Super nervous about this one but I think it’s going to be our best one yet :)

  792. I am will be moving into my own house next week :). Have a bunch of things lined up for the remodeling stuff but painting is the first order of duty.

  793. We just moved so we have a long list… doing my son’s room, redoing the bathrooms, kitchen, the office, guest room, landscaping, etc…!

  794. I’d love the gift card to make over my closet into something a little glamorous- paint, stencil the walls so it looks like the inside of a jewelry box, add a tiny, unnecessarily glittery light fixture… I think it would be fun to take on!

  795. We just moved so I am excited to start over with new paint colors!

  796. My next project is refinishing a child’s wooden desk – with your inspiration I think I’m going to try chalk paint and do a little distressing.

  797. I’ve got a ton of weeding and planting to do around my patio. It’s gotten brambly back there!

  798. My next project is either building a grill table for the Hubby for father’s day or removing the carpet from the stairs and refinishing. Either way, I see many trips to Home Depot in my future :).

  799. My next project will be helping my mom build a patio and landscape her yard for mother’s day!

  800. My next project will be remodelling our bedroom before baby arrives.

  803. The next project I want to tackle is converting a spare bedroom into a craft room.

It was gobs of fun to look through the many old doors at the architectural salvage yard in New Bedford, MA (one door was 8 ft tall, covered in brown leather and trimmed with brass nailheads — all old-school handiwork. Can you imagine that beauty in your entryway???)

  805. I would love to win it! I would start on
    my boy’s bathroom…total makeover needed.
    Thanks for a great give away.

  806. 2 bathroom remodels are on the docket, and Home Depot carries the flooring & paint I need. I drive an extra 20 miles to go there.

  807. Next up is moulding for our living room and entry…think we’re going with simple, Craftsman-style
    1×4 painted glossy white…but we’ll see!

  809. Our next project is to build a new deck on the back of the house and to buy a shed!

  812. We are tearing down the deck and replacing it with a patio. Wish us luck!

  813. My next home improvement project will most likely be my front porch which needs sanded, filled (wood putty) and painted. But, there’s also a nifty new color for my bathroom that’s beckoning me, so maybe that will be next. Or maybe I’ll jump into adding some flowers to the beautiful pots I just picked up (on sale!)…

  814. Next up for us is finishing drywalling a closet and finishing the trim. We’ve put it off for a year and need to get it done before baby #3 gets here!

  815. My next project is actually making planters! I have no more room for pots anymore on my patio, it’s time to step it up and start a real garden. :)

  816. Our next project is changing out old chandeliers and light fixtures.

  817. Your website has been SO inspirational to me! I’ve wanted to redo furniture for a long time, but was extremely intimidated by the entire process. It was your website that helped me realize that I can do this. Because of this, in the past 2 days, I have purchased nightstands for my bedroom and a beautiful vanity and seat. I can’t wait to get started and this $50 gift card will be a great start to get everything I need. Thanks for such a great opportunity!

  818. Our next project will be rebuilding the columns on our front porch and making DIY shutters. I can’t wait to add a little curb appeal to our little fixer upper!

  819. My next home improvement project is really a work in progress. I cannot stop adding to my container garden. It has already taken over what limited patio space I have, but I’ll be adding to it with flowers and perhaps some peppers nonetheless.

  820. Updating our bathroom. FINALLY taking out the wall-mounted changing table and repainting.

  821. We’re expanding our patio and need LOTS of things! And we’re also going to repaint our living room!
    Thanks for the chance!

  823. Downstairs bathroom update/remodel. Currently we’re resurfacing the plaster, next cabinets, paint, and fixtures.

  824. Our next project is completing the new house that is being built for us. We are in the middle of picking out lighting.

  825. My husband and I just bought our first home 3 weeks ago. Although it is a brand new build, there is lots that I plan to do within the next little while. First up though is the garden!

  826. Our next project is finishing painting the basement, putting up walls in the laundry room and then making a curtain rod (and curtains) to hide the washing machine and dryer. Then we need to make a clothes drying rack, install trim, paint the cement floor, paint some of the hodge podge of basement furniture. The list goes on . . .

    Thanks for hosting this giveaway!!

  827. Our next project is redoing the hall bath. Goodbye mauve and burgundy tile! We will not miss you.

  828. My boys’ room, a new bedroom for my older son, and a swing for the deck.

  829. I need to paint my whole house! The contractors that built our house painted the whole house in flat paint, which I like, however I have 2 kiddos and the two just don’t mix well.

  830. Our next project is all the above ha ha. no we are going to start on our master bedroom. I have some awesome grasscloth wallpaper we are putting up and my husband has finally agreed to rip up the carpet and go wood! So a big sander is in order! I can’t wait

  831. Definitely working on the exterior now. A bit of gardening and fresh coat of paint on the front door.

  832. My next project is refurnishing my dining table!!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  833. My next project could be a toss up, but I really need to focus on the bedroom or bathroom and buying new paint!

  834. I would use it for some paint and maybe some curtains for our guest room!

  835. I am putting up board and batten in my son’s room and repainting to match his new bedding. I need to paint some of the furniture too.

  836. My next project is new paint in the master bedroom….SO ready to lighten and brighten after 8 years of hunting coat red! Although your recent Alma playroom makeover made me wish my kids were still small enough for a dedicated playroom!

  837. Our next project is to make our small closet like laundry room “look more substantial”
    We are getting new front loads and I am playing with the idea of more color or maybe even some nice glass tile. It may be small but I think it could be really an impact for such a small space.

  838. The next big project is changing out the countertops but that’s not gonna happen for awhile so maybe some gardening.

  839. Next up for me is building a brick walkway. It’s a little bit overwhelming to think about, but I know it will be SOO worth it! And this gift certificate would certainly help!

  840. My son and I have been remodeling the whole house so that he can move back in. So far the bathroom is 90% done…re-dry walling in spots, new tile floor, new tile shower/bath, painting…on to new flooring, new window treatments, new outside deck…and the list goes on!

  841. I’m in the middle of repainting my apartment, 3 rooms down 2 to go. The dining room is up next, any color suggestions? :)

  842. My next project is sprucing up the front gardens. They have been sorely neglected.

  843. Moved into the new house 5 months ago and went crazy on the inside. It’s time to tackle the LANDSCAPING now. The house looks so drab! Can’t wait to get dirty with some gardening…

  844. There’s always another project, isn’t there? Our first priority is working on the backyard–weeding, removing old horseshoe pits, prepping the garden, laying pea gravel to create a larger seating area. We also need to work on the curb appeal in the front, add a tree ring and do some planting in it. We plan to have our daughter’s first birthday party here at the house on June 23rd. Yikes, it’s coming soon!

  845. I am going to re-upholster a 50’s chair in a blue velvet with a contrasting blue and white back. I bought the fabric at a fundraiser for the Stephan Lewis Foundation (AMAZING man!) helping Grandmother’s in Africa who are raising grandkids. Cost of the chair $20, fabric $3 (but extremely high end!), misc. $10= fabulous for $33!

  846. My next project will be replacing the flooring in our entryway.

  847. Our big project is coming up. We have to repaint entire inside of house. Not looking forward to it all rooms have stucco walls & some of them have to be fixed with new plaster. UGH!!

  848. I shared this giveaway on Facebook. Bonus–my MIL has already shared it, too! Hooray for social media!

  849. Our next project is a backyard patio. And Home Depot’s workshops will definitely come in handy!! ;-)

  850. My husband and I just bought our first home, so our next project is lots of painting!!

  851. My yard needs a lot of work and we are about to start an attic remodel, so that will require many, many trips to Home Depot!

    Katrina

  855. My next project is painting my house- I think it will look amazing painted charcoal with white trim.

  856. We have too many projects, it’s hard to know where to start! Seeing as how Summer is almost here, maybe we will start in the yard/garden area! I mean who wants to be inside working on a beautiful warm day, right??

  857. GARDENING! Just moved into our first home and landscaping had to all be torn out- atrocious! So we are doing our own landscaping and patio! Love this blog, from Boston

  858. We’re in the middle of restoring a stone wall with caps. FUN FUN FUN! Next up will be stuccoing the bottom story of our house-it was built into a hillside with a walkout basement in the 1940’s. The cement block is not so pretty…

  859. Oh goodness, i don’t know where to start! We have gardening, painting, repairs, and landscape projects. So winning this giftcard would definitely help with any of those projects we are working on!:)

    more_virtuous(at)yahoo(dot)com

  860. We will be moving to a new house at the end of the month. While there are no major repairs to be done, I do think that given the time of year I would have to be outside gardening. A little vegetable garden, some hanging planters and other planters scattered around the large deck.

  861. Oh so many projects. Seems like there’s always so much to do. I need to repaint my bedroom which will be a massive undertaking with the cathedral ceiling. I want to DIY a headboard. We have a lot of sprucing up the exterior to do like redoing the rock on the sides of the house… Those are just the start of my list.

  862. Our patio. It is under a sun room so has always been a storage spot. It is 31’x14′ and a shame to waste that space. It will become a new entertaining area.

  863. At the top of the home improvement project list right now is LOTS of painting…entry way, stairwell, pantry door, baseboards, etc. But first, we have to decide on colors. ;-)

  864. I would love to win! I need to finish so many projects around the house and being on a tight budget this gift card would really help!

  865. My laundry closet for my tiny condo is my next project. I accidentally bought a washer and dryer set that are a tad too big for the closet, so I can’t close the door and need to figure out a way to fix it!

  866. First, I need to paint my kitchen cabinets. After that comes, sprucing up the back yard – summer is coming quickly :)

  867. Painting! My husband & I just bought our first place and are excited to paint a room for the first time ever :)

  868. Our next project to tackle is adding major curb appeal in the front yard. We could use lots of purdy flowers from HD. :)

  869. Our next project is hardwood floors for the entire house. Super excited!

  870. My next project it digging and planting a garden. I went summer tomatoes, peppers maybe cucumbers. lettuce romaine would be great still in the planning stages. what will grow well here etc.

  871. I am attempting your gorgeous board & batten project in my son’s room as we speak :) I only put one hole in the wall (so far) while pulling off the existing baseboards!

  872. Landscaping….we would like to finish the landscape in the backyard!

  873. My next “real” project is refinishing/repainting a chair I rescued this weekend when our city had their annual curb side clean-up. But I also (well, we) moved furniture and so we are cleaning and decluttering. It feels so good!!! But that also means I need to paint… Always something! :D
    Would be great to win, thanks!

  874. We are painting our 1974 era house from top to bottom inside. I can’t wait to see the transformation from dark and dingy to coastal living!

  875. Hi,
    I’ve just moved so my immediate project is to get unpacked and find a home for everything. After that I liked to try something in my foyer.
    Thanks for the opportunity to win one of these cards and for opening the giveaway to Canadians.
    All the best,
    Cathy

  876. We just purchased a new home with a “builders” finished front yard and a dirt pit for a backyard. We need to add sprinklers, grass, and plants stat!

  877. I have a little area of my yard that I am turning into a nook, sort of a secret garden concept. So excited!

  878. Yay for this great giveaway! My next projects are landscaping, my boys’ rooms and kitchen wall tile.

  879. Redecorating the living room is next on our home improvement projects. :)

  880. Once school is out for the summer, we’re definitely going to paint our builder’s beige living room walls a nice punchy color!!

  881. It’s the garden with a patio and maybe even a fireplace! This would help get us started! Thanks for the giveaway!!

  882. We are remodeling our half bath. Have already torn out and replaced the tile on the walls and floor, but I have my eye on some sconces at HD. Here’s hoping lady luck smiles my way.

  883. We plan to freshen up the ol’ patio, and need paint & spruced-up planters.

  884. Repairs. Need to fix our chandeliers…the people we hired left big gaping holes around them. :(

  886. We’re working on painting/prepping the nursery for our first child! :)

  887. My new backyard is my next challenge…as soon as the poison ivy clears up,

  888. Replacing our 3rd (& final!) toilet, then hopefully on to something more fun.

  889. We need to add a few fans to the ceilings. The previous owners seemed to like it dark, so the house had no overhead lighting in any room other than the dining areas.

  890. We will be moving shortly and most of the homes I have seen need a lot of work. So I foresee a lot of painting in my future. And Behr paint is my favorite!

  891. It’s a house from the ground up. I have many projects coming and I have no idea which one will come first.

  892. I’d love to start working on our master bath, but right now our backyard is taking priority.

  893. Our main floor bathroom is our next project to tackle, and were running out of time. My daughter graduates early June and we have to have it completed b4 then.
    Just finished up our Master bedroom, but still have to buy window blinds and drapery hardware for that room. This gift certificate would come in mighty handy too, as my dh was laid off a couple of weeks ago.

  894. Our new home is actually quite old and there’s lots to do! One room that doesn’t need a major overhaul but just some cosmetic changes is the dining room and I’m excited to start that! This gift card would come in mighty handy!!

  895. Thanks for another great giveway! My garage is my next project. I’m going to be painting it a light tan, adding some shelving, and spray paintnig all the plastic tubs/trash cans/organizing bins maroon in the spirit of my alam mater:Mississippi State University!

  896. Mulching my flower beds. We have very little water here in west Texas so no plants this year.

  897. My next home improvement project is doing something about the white ceramic tile floor in my kitchen. Yes, you read that correctly. WHITE tile. In a KITCHEN. It’s madness trying to keep it clean, I tell you!

  898. Working on finally mounting our kitchen back splash. I cannot wait for the kitchen remodel to be complete!

  899. My next project is building two more vegatable beds for the garden. Thanks for a great give a way!

  900. Just repainted our kitchen/den and now I am redecorating. This morning I bought a coffee table for $30 and it’s about to get a new look!

  906. Our basement! We have just finished the framing, plumbing and the electrical and we have moved on to insulation. Drywall is next – we have many months of work left ahead of us!!! The majority of the work is being done by us, although we are going to have someone do the drywall for us. Everything else, including building the vanity, wet bar, and built-in’s – all our handiwork! Many of your ideas have inspired our design :)

  908. We are finishing up our baby boy #2’s nursery! I have all the wood (from Home Depot) to make some fabulous pallet art above the crib. Just have a few more little things to finish up around his room and bathroom. Then we’ll be ready for his July debut!

  909. We are moving in June and this would be a great way to change the builder-grade bathroom into something special.

    Next up is replacing carpets in the bedrooms (ewww).

  911. I bought my two year old daughter a learning tower off craigslist, its in good condition other than the fact that it is super ugly. I want to sand it down and paint it either white or black with blackboard paint. I haven’t decided which yet!

  912. Very excited to say I just bought my first home. However, in order to secure a rural housing home loan, I need to have the deck scraped and painted along with the main door frame replaced. The gift card would be a HUGE help!!!

  918. I just moved in to my first apt w/ my husband! The apartment has a lot of potential but it needs a little bit of love. We’ve been painting all the rooms to make it cozy and to eliminate the cigarette and cat smell from the previous tenant.
    Besides the upholstery, I manage to buy all my furnitures from Craigslist and Kijiji, we saved money but I wont save any time to give them the love they need. Now, I am picking colors for the living room and soon I’ll be sanding and painting furniture for a while. Looking forward of getting a respirator mask anti-fumes!

  949. We just moved into a new house, so my constant improvement project is to get these builder-whie walls painted!!

  959. The sidebof our house is our current project. VWe just dug up lots of overgrown shrubs on the side of our house. Now our next step is to amend the soil and pick out pretty things to plant. After that, back inside to paint the dining room.

  960. We just bought a home and our first of many projects is to remove a double closet in a nook leading to the laundry room (coming in off the garage) and install cubbies so we will now have a mud room!! A complete necessity in the Midwest with 4 kids! Thanks!

  961. I will be painting and re-doing my office and the kids’ old toy room. I’m almost finished with my living room and on to the next project!!!

  974. Definitely overhauling our little yard! We bought a short sale and the yard is and an overgrown mess.

  975. At the moment the love of my life and I are trying to decide who wins. His shed in the back yard or the window seat in the kitchen. Since we celebrated 21 years of marriage on the fourth of May I gave him the go ahead for the shed as part of his gift. He claimed that he wanted to give me the window seat. We will see.

  976. We are buying a new house, so I’ll probably use it for some paint!

  977. I <3 Home Depot! My next project, which I've been procrastinating on badly, is painting our hallways and stairway. It will be so nice to have it done!

  979. We are going to build a compost bin out of a barrel. Very exciting!

  980. I am painting frames so they will all be the same color for a family picture wall.

  981. Sounds like you had a fun time! My next project is banishing all the builder’s beige from my home, so it’s a major paint project!

  982. We are currently working on transforming our sunroom into a playroom for the kids…still looking for the perfect curtains, small area rug, and storage ottomans! After that, it’s on to the laundry room which is in DIRE need of a makeover. Your blog is wonderful and I am thoroughly enjoying looking through all of your previous posts!

  983. Shower remodel! Hoping that everything goes as planned and we will have a successful Memorial day weekend!

  984. I had a great find over the weekend at a yard sale. I purchased 15 framed photos for $15. The photos frames are walnut and are double matted with glass. My 2 1/2 year old son and I will be making new art for them. I will sand down the frames and whitewash. Some of the frames I would like to paint some bold bright colors from the home depot paint samples and put in my son’s room. -Joanna Drake

  988. Gardening. I was hoping to build garden boxes this year, but will need to work with the patch I have. I really need to get it in order!

  990. I’m moving into my first house next month and so excited to paint and update my kitchen!

  991. What a great giveaway. I am making a room in our house into a sewing room. A gift card would sure help. Thanks Kate and Home Depot.

  992. I’m trying to tame my overgrown backyard, one weekend at a time.

  993. We have a growing laundry list, pun intended – our laundry room, both my kid’s headboards, family picture wall frame, caulk all window trims, enhance garden beds, build a large shed, fix backyard corner fence and clean eavesthroughs. Wow that’s one big list for this summer!

  994. Just purchased a rancher and when you walk in the door you are transported back to the 70s, so the project will be updating- removing all the various shades of orange, brown and yellow. Peeling back the wood paneling and the green carpet, ooh the fun and possibilities.

  995. We just bought our very first house! Baby is due 11 days after we move – eek – so her room will be a priority, but first has got to be replacing the billiard-table light that is currently hanging over the kitchen island….

  996. We have a sweet baby boy due in August so our current project is preparing his nursery.

  997. It’d probably be easier to think of a home improvement project that we won’t be doing. That list is certainly smaller! However, currently we’re working on our kitchen and this would be great. Thanks!

  1005. My next project will be re-building my raised beds. A “helpful” family member disassembled them and was going to move them to another part of the yard (where I didn’t want them).Of course, said helpful family never put them back together, so now I’ll be shopping for new boards. I’m thinking of Thompson’s Water Seal before I put them together, so the beds last longer.

  1006. I’m constantly doing ‘little’ projects around the house like repainting planters, chairs, frames, almost anything in my house that won’t run away :) But my next BIG project is the kitchen.
    I am going to replace the sink, the countertop, add wainscoting, and repaint..I can’t wait for a new look!

    PS love your site! I get a ton of ideas from you.

  1007. Great giveaway! My next project is to redo the ugliest bathroom in America before my sister and niece move in this summer. Fun stuff!

    (I love your little home depot apron in the picture where you’re holding the tile – look forward to reading about it!)

  1008. My “next” project will be a make-over for my builder-grade dining room chandelier. It’s getting a coat of brushed bronze paint and some shades. Of course I can’t start that project until we finish painting our shutters. Why did we leave the second story for last????

  1009. My next project is updating the kitchen/family room. It’s country and I am not!

  1010. Definitely gardening-related for me. I need to add some features to the backyard: fences to keep the cats out of some areas, trellises, walkways, etc.

  1011. Oh lord, our whole house is a home improvement project! We’re newlyweds who just bought a wonderful 1960’s ranch – and we have a LOT of work to do :) But our current project is building a fence with a clever sliding gate to keep the dogs safe and sound in the backyard!

  1022. Our next project is a garage addition to our home! We will only be finishing it (most construction will be done by our contractor), but we can’t wait to have the garage, half bath and walk in pantry that will all be added!

  1023. My next project will be to economically spruce up my dingy half bath.

  1024. My next project is reupholstering my sofa. Its been in the works for a long time coming.

  1030. We’ve been in our house for over 2 years and every room is still painted the same “apartment beige” color. It’s time to paint!

  1037. Our next big projects include repainting our bedroom, bathroom and office, building a deck and patio, and organizing the garage!

  1038. We are going to put in a retaining wall so the water doesn’t flow directly into our new house, which has created a mold problem in the past.

  1044. My patio needs a makeover desperately!! With all of the projects going on inside our house, though, I am having a hard time delegating improvement funds out back. I could use the $50 wisely!!

  1045. My next project is re-vamping my boyfriend’s dining room! He brought his own place about a year ago and for about a year, it’s been decorated in total bachelor pad style. I recently moved in and his parents have been bugging us non-stop to have them over for dinner so we decided the dining room would be the first room we decorate!

  1046. My fiancé and I are building a built-in wood “ceiling box”. It will serve the decorative purpose of crown molding (oak stained in Minwax Classic Black-2 coats), glow through the top like a trey ceiling using 18′ LED Rope Light, and make an easy way to add 4 recessed lights and 2 pendant lights to the living room. We purchased everything with the exception of the pendant lights from Home Depot this weekend. :)

  1077. Our next home improvment project will be painting trim and baseboards in our kitchen, bedroom, and hallway. Thankfully, we live in a small house so it hopefully shouldn’t be too much of a project, but I may end up eating my words.

  1078. My Husband and I are sprucing up our little white shed. He is repurposing old pallets and crate wood into a custom lattice and flower box. We’ve decided on some happy citrus colors and so far it’s looking very Happy!!

  1090. My next project (this coming Saturday) is gardening: tomatoes and strawberries! I’m a first timer, so I’m thrilled my grandmother is coming out to help oversee the work.

  1091. Our next project is re-doing the stairs to the second level of our house. This will also involve tiling the landing part way up and using a false stair tread and riser kit (which we were planning on buying from Home Depot already!).

  1092. Power washing our siding on the outside of our house is next up! Then, maybe some yard work.

  1093. Up next is a new patio for our yard… Can’t wait for a spiffy new place outside to sit and relax this summer.

  1094. we have an endless list of projects! currently, we’re whipping this yard in to shape, and then move on to redoing our kitchen!

  1095. Painting and decorating my son’s room! It’s only taken 2 years to get around to it!

  1096. I am actually painting my entire condo currently, as we just moved in. The project I’m most excited about it our striped entry way! We are planning on doing white and seafoam green vertical stripes with some bright red accent furniture. Should be fun!

  1099. My next project is to paint the closet I gutted and turn it into a little office space!

  1100. Building a second bathroom in our basement. After 5 years 4 people and 1 bathroom just isn’t cutting it any longer.

  1102. I’m going to start work on a raised garden today! So excited to get some plants in the ground!

  1103. Right now we’re working on getting our container garden started. We got some flowers last week, but now want to start our edibles. We’re doing some herbs, peppers, and possibly tomatoes this year. I’d also love to get a blueberry bush.

  1104. My little balcony! I would use the gift card for some decking tile to cover up the unattractive stained cement floor.

  1105. Three projects have begun as a result of a leak under the kitchen sink!
    1~New kitchen plus painting the cabinets
    2~New basement wall & might as well paint the built in cabinet bookshelf that goes along the wall since it’s been torn of the wall already
    3~The house is already a mess, might as well add to the dust by putting in 16 canned lights in the ceiling

  1106. My next project is painting the kitchen and adding a tile back splash. The kitchen is in some serious need for some love:)

  1107. I’m currently in the middle of installing picture frame paneling to my staircase – you were my inspiration!!

  1108. Our current project is the downstairs bathroom, and I could put that $100 to good use! Thanks for the chance to win!

  1109. Once we finish the nursery, we are moving on to the shed in the backyard! Ripping down the falling down front awning and basically patching things up!

  1110. My next project is going to be the garage. Organizing with shelves/cabinets and epoxy floor!

  1111. Hello Kate, I am turning my daughters’ room from little one to young lady and I would purchase the paint for her walls; mint majesty and a quart of chalkboard paint too!

  1112. Our next home improvement project will be to retrofit our attic with sturdy built in shelving for some much needed storage space and organization – thanks for the opportunity!

  1113. My next project is moving into a new house, so I will definitely be visiting Home Depot a lot in the upcoming months!

  1114. I have been dying to redo my garage/workshop for ages now, this certificate would go a long way to help the process, thank you.

  1115. We are in the beginning stages of building a new deck, and this would really help!

  1116. lastest improvement project: refinishing the bathtub in my bathroom (peeling paint, gross :) )

  1117. What don’t I have to do? I am a newlywed so the project list is endless…

  1118. I’m painting an old desk plack and I’m torn between spray paint and rolling on traditional paint. Either way I need some black paint and $50 would really help buy it. Jo @ Let’s Face the Music

  1119. To name a few projects… Need to decorate a nursery, finish up a half bath remodel, and an upstairs bedroom remodel, and build an outdoor deck off our front patio. The fun never ends :)

  1120. So many projects! Right now I’m focusing on the gardens… then it will be built-in cabinets/shelves with a window seat in my master!

  1121. First off, I love your blog! I get so much inspiration. My next project is to paint my tired kitchen cabinets. We bought a foreclosure this past year and it shows in the kitchen. I am hoping to use on of those Rustoleum kitchen kits you reviewed!

  1122. Gartening. I need so much help I can’t even spell it properly.

  1123. My next project is making my backyard a nice retreat for my upcoming staycation!!! Plane tickets are just too high right now.

  1124. We are in desperate need of remodeling our master bathroom, it’s currently not in use, we don’t even have a bathtub in eek! That is project we will be tackling this summer for sure!

  1125. My ongoing home improvement project is redoing our bedroom. We’re curently selecting paint color and have gone through 3 samples and may need a fourth.

  1126. Currently my bf and I are renovating our tiny kitchen – just to make it brighter and more manageable. We tore down brown fake wood paneling and ripped up the linoleum flooring. We have already put up and painted bead board and a chair rail. Now we just have to pick out and put up a small row of cabinets and build a new island/work space for the once breakfast nook! Any $$ towards this would help immensely! Thanks for the chance!!

  1127. Getting ready to (finally) paint my living and dining rooms this weekend! I would LOVE the gift cards.

  1128. We always have at least 3 projects in the works! Currently, we’re working on finishing our deck: staining and adding stairs. Then we’re planning on adding landscaping around it. And I’ve been working on a couple of furniture re-dos.

  1129. Oh I love this giveaway! Who doesn’t love HomeDepot?! My next home renovation is our bedroom! It’s the last room in the house that hasn’t been done. We just recently moved, and I’ve been wanting to make a headboard and actually build some side tables. I’d love to have the help of $50 and win this giveaway :)

  1130. We are currently in the midst of powerwashing and replacing rotten boards on our deck. A $50 gift card would sure come in handy before I pick some new stain! Thank you!!

  1131. Up next is replacing the dining room window with French doors which will open onto a new deck!

  1132. Bathroom redo. New flooring and fixtures, paint, baseboard, the works.

  1133. My next plan is to redo a buffet in my kitchen! It is old and ugly, and I think a coat of paint is just what the old girl needs to look young and modern!

  1134. I would love to paint my bathroom and a couple of bedrooms, and possibly take on a spray painting adventure with an old piece of furniture.

  1135. Our next project is the garage! We’ve slowly renovated our entire house over the past 4 years, and now its time to tackle a not-so-fun, but important project – we need to enhance the storage and functionality of our garage!

  1136. I have two bathrooms that are in desperate need of a remodel.

  1137. we need to paint a nursery next and then I want to do some weed control in our back woods!

  1138. I will be creating a vegetable garden in our yard soon. Thanks for the giveaway!

  1139. Outdoors!!! Need tons of landscaping supplies (and tons of energy!)

  1140. our next project will be a hosta garden on the side of the garage, a gift cart would go a long way on the stone I want to use!

  1141. My next project is to remodel my son’s room. We are upgrading him to a tween style room.

  1142. We have a bunch, but the next will be creating a custom shelf system for an odd little nook in our apartment. I feel like this small change is goign to change the entire function of our apartment

  1143. I’m working on a laundry room! Just painted it…got the washer and dryer installed..put in new outlets and outlet covers…now for the fun part..decor!

  1144. I have a bunch of “next” projects- installing a new kitchen floor, painting a bathroom, redecorating the living room.

  1145. We will be ripping up all of the floors in our kitchen/laundry room area…horray. Not. :) hahaha. It will be fun i’m sure, but a pain.

  1146. I am on a gardening mission! Build new planter boxes, arbor & pour concrete!!!

  1147. My husband and I are doing an entire house remodel, we’re almost finished with the kitchen, but our next step is trimming out cabinets and crown moulding!

  1148. We have several home repair items on our to-do list. We need to fill nail holes on our walls and touch up the paint. We need to replace the locks on our windows. My husband also will be installing a switch to allow our AC to turn from heat to air without re-wiring it. :-)

  1149. My next project is repainting the deck. Peeling, chipping, paint is not the “curb appeal” I want for my home. Plus adding a nice tall planter with a shrub to balance out my off-center door/porch entrance.

  1150. My next project is container gardening! I’ve really focused on perennial beds the last few years, now it’s time to get some awesome containers for annual pops of color.

  1151. We’ve got one indoor project (kitchen reno) and one outdoor project (addition to our deck plus a treehouse!) next on the list of things to do in our now 100 year old house!

  1152. We have so many, but I think our next project is to install a 4 ft fence on one side of our house to replace the makeshift ‘chicken wire’ fence that was here when we bought our house last summer. And we’ll stain it black to match the actual 4 foot fence on the other side of the house.

  1153. Our next project is fixing our gutters – all of the rain we are having is a continual reminder that our gutters do not work correctly.

  1154. This is probably really silly but I need to change the lightbulbs in all our bedrooms. We are renting and have built in fan/light combo’s. I can never find the right size bulb and just put it off.

  1155. I have so many it’s hard to choose just one, but I think my next project is to plant my veggie garden and paint my garden gate a bright fun color.

  1156. I just sat down and made my summer project list. No school for the kids and no work for me will hopefully make a productive summer! The top of my list is paint the backdoor. I let my MIL paint it when we moved in and she never got finished scraping the paint off the glass and I’m embarassed to say I’ve lived with it for 2 years like that. So it’s getting a new color and getting done right this time!

  1157. Beginning next week I will be a full time stay at home mom so we decided to get our own garden planted last weekend. This would help get a few more veggie plants!

  1158. Those planters are so pretty–great idea.

    Our next project is to put a pergola on our deck for some shade. Not sure if we will do part of the deck or the entire deck.

  1159. Hmmm, where do I start. I want to redo my laundry room, we need a new faucet in our bathroom (the hot side doesn’t work), we want to build another raised garden in the back, we need to pain the front entryway and we need to paint the house! I NEED THIS GC! :)

  1160. My next project is repainting a round pedestal table I bought at a tag sale!

  1161. So many projects! Need to finish the hallway (it’s currently down to bare plaster) and freshen up the garden for curb appeal before we start updating the bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen. So like I said: so. many. projects. :)

  1162. Our next home improvement project would most likely be our downstairs bathroom. We don’t use it very often, but it would be nice to spruce it up a bit. Now I just need to have someone come in and help me since I’m home improvement impaired! :)

  1163. I tackled one flower bed this weekend – it turned out great! Next weekend, I’ll work on a bed of dirt/rocks under the window by our pool. I’m planning to plant some grasses and some purple and gold/yellow flowers (including lavender) since my son just got accepted at Univ of Washington. Go Huskies!

  1164. My next project is painting and rearranging my daughter’s bedroom. She has big plans!

  1165. My next project is to move to switch bedrooms with my sons …they have a huge room in basement and now that they’re getting older I want them to have their own rooms so I’m moving them upstairs to my bedroom and the office and then transforming their room into half my bedroom and half a workout space.

  1166. I would put it towards new flooring for my daughter’s “hangout room” the carpet in there is slightly older than my eldest which is scary!!!

  1167. Our next project is building a built-in style over-toilet cabinet in the hall bathroom.

  1168. We need to replace some bathroom faucets. Thanks for the give away!

  1169. My next home project is two fold: finishing our guest bedroom and completing our backyard (deck, a gravel side with stepping stones, a sandbox for our kiddo, a garden, and landscaping). Man, when I type it out it sounds much bigger than it really is!

  1170. i am in the process of picking out a new paint color for my kitchen!

  1171. I want to paint my laundry room and spruce it up! Thank you for the give away.

  1172. I need to choose paint colors for the house so this will really come in handy!

  1173. We have several home projects on our list haha! But our next home improvement project is redoing the flooring in our house. We have 4 different kinds of flooring throughout and I can’t wait to tear it all out and put down real hardwood floors throughout!!

  1174. Our next project is our yard! We moved into a house this past fall not knowing that poison ivy was invasive in the yard:( We are getting ready to have all the brush and two trees removed to hopefully get rid of the poison ivy that is growing rampant and add plants/flowers to the landscaping.

  1175. Next project(s) – painting the office and organizing the garage. Love Home Depot!

  1176. We are wanting to build a shelving system to hold the countless plastic storage boxes we have in the basement that house all our junk!

  1177. We just bought our first house! So our first project will be to reseed the grass and built a new fence.

  1178. We will be ripping out the kid’s bathroom and replacing everything. The fixtures are 30 years old and it’s long overdue.

  1179. We will be building 2 large planter boxes to start our very own garden. We’re new homeowners and gardening virgins, so this should be an interesting project! I just have a goal of being able to say “I grew these in my garden”.

  1180. We’re taking a deep breath and tackling the seven front steps and brick entryway–hoping for an easy expansion. Huge!

  1181. I’ve been dying to replace the builder’s grade tile around our fireplace with something a little more sassy!

  1182. My next project is planters and flowers. we also need to paint our deck again. Thanks for the opportunity :)

  1183. We are working on an old farm house that needs everything. The first item to replace is the kitchen sink faucet.

  1184. My next project is a succulent garden and repainting my patio furniture.

  1185. We just bought our first house, so we have several projects planned. I think the first will be the kitchen–new backsplash, peeling wallpaper & painting, possibly painting cabinets, and maybe refinishing a thrifted table. Whew!

  1186. We hope to start remodeling our half bath and laundry room. We moved into an older home at the beginning of the year and everything about it screams the 1970’s! I love it, but needs a lot of updating. Since we had a wedding soon after it was hard to get started on the project. We need to redo the whole house, but for now we are starting off with the small rooms! We plan on gathering the materials for the project little by little soon!

  1187. Our next project is working on a container garden for our apartment deck.

  1188. Our next project is updating our main bathroom and redoing the tile, getting a new sink pedestal, etc

  1189. I would love to spruce up our patio!! we have a great outdoor space and we use it all the time but everything is boring beige….even the grill cover. it needs color!!!

  1190. I love your site….awesome planter bok..love the green tiled one the most <3
    I am getting super addcited to sites such as yours…love love DIY projects. I've managed to find myself a few wooden pallets.

  1191. Our next project is building a faux fire place mantle in the living room!

  1192. Next project is trimming out the hardwood floors we just installed in our kitchen this week.

  1193. My next home improvement project would be my kids’ room. It’s a shared room (two girls) and there is a lot of painting and reorganizing to be done. They’re getting older (and bigger) and keep accumulating so much stuff that they refuse to get rid of. It should be interesting.

  1194. My hubby and I have been talking about tiling our kitchen backsplash! Only problem is… we can’t agree on the tile!

  1195. Our next project is my sons bathroom now that he is fully potty trained.

  1196. We just bought a house so the first “major” project on our list of things to tackle is painting! We are going to paint every room in the house, so thats a lot of paint! Thanks!

  1197. So many projects on the list, but with warm weather we’re looking to tame our landscaping and add an outdoor light by the door!

  1198. Current project I need to do is paint. There will be a lot of painting going on as every bedroom and our dining room/computer room needs to painted!!!

  1199. we are in the middle of a total backyard transformation and we still have a long way to go (in my estimation that is…the boy i live with feels quite differently). but my patio furniture is next on the list. paint and new cushion covers.

  1200. Creating my summer outdoor space with some herb plants from the farmers market and new planters. Thanks for post – excited to start this project!

  1207. It would be gardening, cause I need to bring back to life my dying tomatoes.

  1208. Repainting my bedroom (after fixing all the holes that I accidentally put in the walls – whoops).

  1209. I badly need to repaint the inside of my home! I swore I would do it when we were considering buying our home. We’ve been living here for seven months now and it’s still the same colors!

  1210. Repainting all the trim in the house! The Behr semi gloss would be my first choice to paint with, and I need a new purdy short handled angle brush too :)

  1217. My next project is the half bath downstairs…so this gift card would be AWESOME!!!

  1218. Our next project will be making a house our own! We just bought our first house!

  1219. My next project is to paint my bedroom and my son’s bedroom. He finally knows what he wants his room to look like. My room is very bland so I believe a good coat of paint will brighten things up.

  1221. We are building built in bookshelves following your directions for your beautiful bookshelves! This would be great!

  1223. We just gutted our bathroom yesterday, but haven’t purchased any new materials yet. I’ll take any handouts I can get!
