Its a MAJOR AWARD!!!

Can you name that movie??? So I made it to the 26 followers and beyond :) Thanks to all of you, you sure know how to make a girl feel special. So I have the piece!! I just picked it up today. I am very excited to do this. I really LOVE to give gifts, and I REALLY LOVE personalizing a gift. I love to take the time and think about the person and give them something that suits their personality and traits. So because of that I want to give you the perfect piece. So I am going to give the Winner a few choices. Yep that's right!! I have 3 different pieces for you to choose from. Then you get to choose how I finish it just for you. Everything I have done up to this point has been with spray paint and I would like to stick with that if you please. Here are your choices :)

Small Hutch

Nightstand
I started this piece for a Christmas gift and wasn't feeling it so it go abandoned. Then my 2 year old decided he needed to glaze it white on top of what I had done.
Console/sofa table

Here are a few ideas of what I can do.

The first 2 images came from here. I did not paint these nor build them they are just for paint/stain ideas :)




So how do I win you ask??? Well first you have to be a follower. Then you have to comment on this post. Tell me what piece you like best and where you would put it. It is that simple :) You have 1 week!

As mentioned before if you aren't local I can't afford to ship you a piece of furniture but you still have a chance to win. I will make a quilt or some other item for you. Because I love you even if you live far away :)

Hey Cari,
I think they are all great pieces. I think the small hutch is really cute and would be great anywhere. I am sure I could find the perfect spot for it wherever we end up moving. Also, I love the table as well. If you never feel like finishing that, I will buy it from you. I would love it for an entry table and I would love it some really fun color like turquoise or orange.

Hey there!! Long time no see :) This is MaryAnn from The Emerald . . .

I like all the pieces, but I can't take any of them back to Virginia with me right now, so I will go with something that will go well in parents house (which desperately needs decent furniture!) I think the small hutch would be perfect :)

I love your blog by the way!

Oh Cari, you are one talented lady! I personally love all three items! I do think I love the table the best though. How cute would it be with some of those cute boxes we have talked about on the bottom shelf? And you know how badly I need a table in my little basement. Great idea! Hope I win! Love you lots! (and will still love you even if I don't win!)

Briann said...

i love the hutch and the couch table! I can't decide. I would love to put the hutch in Leah's room in place of her dresser or the babies room, your so talented!

Shawnte said...

I do follow but for some reason the follow button doesn't show up, LAME. I am good with little crafts like sewing and I love modge podge but I have no patience with re-modeling furniture. It would be sweet goodness to win the awesome hutch! I want a new TV stand the one we have is glass and I hate it. I hope I win! BTW, I have a much smaller giveaway on my blog :)
Pick Me!!

I absolutely LOVE the hutch! I even have the perfect spot for it in my great room. It would also help clear out some clutter! My fingers are crossed!

Christina said...

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! Oh I hope I get picked!!! :) You are amazing and uber generous! :)

i love all three pieces, but the hutch is my favorite! we just moved into a bigger apartment, so we have room for it too! i think i would put it either in my kitchen or living room! this is so sweet of you!

OOhh.. Awe... I love the TV Stand. I have a 47 inch mounted. But we still have the large console entertainment center under it. Only because we need a place to put the electronics. The problem with the entertainment center is the kids have pulled the door off the hinges (honey do list 4 months ago). Its way to big and its dated. I have an idea how about we trade? LOL you can have my old one and redo it ; I will take the beauiful piece you create and it will transform my family room. My fingers will be crossed all week.. Hey your amazing I am so impressed with your DIY skills. :) love the blog

Cari all your pieces are soo cute! What an awesome and fun giveaway! I think I like the hutch or the sofa/console table! I would love to put either items in my kitchen or somewhere in our basement when it gets finished here shortly!! Have you ever tried doing a dark or black finish?

Homemaker is not a "dirty" word said...

@Brooke,
Yes I have done some black and dark pieces I just didn't really end up with good pictures of them or I would have posted them along. I am WAY interested in trying the dark top with the white or ivory bottom that is so in style right now.

Robyn said...

I love the hutch! Well all of it really. I've wanted to learn to refinish furniture, but am not brave enough to try.

Janalee said...

All the pieces are beautiful but I think the hutch is what I could use the most. I would love to put it in our great room as an entertainment center. I have so much clutter in that area. The hutch would consolidate it all and make the great room look "GREAT" again.

R Clan said...

I ESPECIALLY need the Hutch. So if you can so kindly pick me I would be a VERY happy person!

Carrie Christina said...

I love them all, but would probably go for the night stand since I have been using my husband's speaker since we got married. (it is covered by a cute blanket though) : )

David Muncey said...

The hutch is almost exactly what we have been looking for but haven't been successful. We are planning to put it in our bedroom under our (wall mounted) TV.

Stacey said...

I want the HUTCH!! so bad!! I think it would be pretty french grey or I could go crazy with and do teal! I would put it in my room for a T.V. stand. I can drive up and get it so it's no problem! :)

Zach said...

Okay, sure. Count us in (that is, the fam). I think I'd like the sofa table or the hutch. :)

Alisha Bowling said...

I love the small hutch and have the perfect blank wall to put it on!!! But....since I live away, maybe if I win I could talk you into making a car seat cover for my new little guy instead?? (you know, the kind that everyone has right now that I dint want to pay 50 bucks for that Velcros around the handle. I tried sewing one, it didn't work....at all! :) I obviously dont have your talent!!)

Anyway...I love your blog and all your creative posts!

I love the hutch... that is just adorable. But I'm not fussy. You should def pick me. :) This is Petra by the way. It won't let me post under my name...

DeAnna said...

It's Miss Dee. I might be only 17 but that doesn't mean I'm not eligible right? ;) I can't wait for you to paint that hutch pink or white. :)
