We wanted to do a giveaway to celebrate all our readers!  Thanks for joining us here, we're happy to share our design ideas with you, answer your questions,  and discuss ways to beautify all of our living spaces.  Today I've picked a few of my favorite everyday items.  I picked these particular things because I think you should surround yourselves with things that inspire you and lift your spirit. One lucky reader will win their favorite item.  In order to win please leave a a comment; including your email (it will be unpublished, it's just so we can contact the winner), and tell us what your favorite item is and why.  The giveaway will close this Sunday, the 15th, and we'll announce the winner on Monday the 16th.  Good Luck!
Monogrammed Euro Sham - perfect as a Valentine's Day present, red and personable

Match Candleholders - good design should always have form and function; these candles have both as the slit allows you to light the wick without removing the votive

Valencia Bottles - wouldn't drinks just taste better if served from these?  and they're reusable, win win

Made to Play - are you familar with Joel Henriques work?  He is a very artistic father who wrote a book sharing all the ways he and his kids play - so inspiring

Stainless Steel Snack Bowls - makes ordinary snacks look like a big deal

Graham and Brown Spa Wallpaper - lovely and reflective, perfect for small spaces, one roll

Glass Piggy Bank - witty and useful

Pixie Stick Straws - add color and pattern to a table spread, biodegradable too, maybe use them with the above bottles

Monogrammed Mug - I love to gift this mug, everytime it's used, they think of me!

My New Years wish would be that we all try to surround ourselves with things that are purposeful and beautiful in 2012.  

Enjoy!

I have one of those bottles. I love using it! Why don't I use it more often...?

That is TOUGH. I want it all! I gave some of those mugs to teachers at Christmas and they were a hit. But I think if I have to choose one, I'd go with the glass bottle. That would really class up our cereal breakfasts.

I love so much of what you posted! I have those valencia bottles (or some like it) and they always make a regular drink (even water) seem more special. :)

I think I would pick that cool piggy bank... we have SO much lose change around and I would like it all in one place! Bonus if it looks cool and decorative like the piggy bank you posted.

I like the new year's goal....

At first I wanted the monogram pillow sham, but I love that piggy bank. It is so cute. I have been throwing loose change into a pickle jar and it is not too cute. I think my vote is for the pig. Thank you...I will plan on receiving it soon.

Its a tough call between Made to Play and the Valencia bottles, but I'm going to have to pick the Valencia bottles. My husband is the hardest person ever to shop for but he loves soda in glass bottles (as do I) so these would be great. These are also SO SO cute! I love them.

I love the monogramed mugs and also the drink bottles. I love the mugs because I think they are simple and classy and I love the drink bottles because I think they are multi-purpose; also can be used as vases!
