Happy Friday! This has been an extremely busy week, and I can't wait to tell you about a little side project I've started...
For now though, let's chat about this weekend's giveaway from CSN Lighting. If you haven't been to the mecca of lighting stores, you're missing out because this place has a plethora of options from traditional, to modern, to eclectic and everything in between. The first time I visited the site, I got lost in all of the options and many at deeply discounted prices. From type of lamp, to type of function (i.e. ceiling lights, table lamps, track lighting) chances are you're going to find something you love (and can afford!) here.
When CSN Lighting contacted me, they asked me to choose a product that I thought my readers would like. Well, as any astute blog writer knows, I can only choose what I like and hope that you all agree with me. Eeek! (It's a tricky business, but someone's got to do it, wink, wink.)
The winner of this weekend's giveaway will be taking home the Oscar Boudoir Lamp!
This lamp, in it's various forms, has been making it's rounds in blog design land, and for good reason.
You can choose between the base color of carrot, grass, or olive and between the "white linen" shade or the "natural linen." Perhaps you'll even want to try your hand at little lampshade DIY love?
The list price for this lamp is $87, but CSN sells it for $66.70 (nice deal!)
Dimensions are 18"H x9"W and it's listed as one of CSN's "Eco Friendly" products.
For one of you lucky readers, it's free!
How to enter? 3 entries total.

I like these shapely lamps, but I seem to be in the wrong country.
And of course I'm a follower!!!
Oh I'd put it in our upstairs living room because we're always tripping around in the dark when the big lights are off.
+ following :)
Wow, this lamp is so simple and chic, but a little modern, too. I love it's shape and the colors! I'd take the green one and use it in my bedroom!
aaand I'm also a follower :)

Lovely lamps ....pity about that US restriction!
The Olive lamp would definitely go in my family room... and I think I would try my hand at a DIY lampshade!! I follow your blog, and love it!!
Great giveaway! I would put this in my guest room... which is half office, half guest room. It would be perfect!
I follow too! :)
These lamps are PRECIOUS! I normally HATE lamps, because I can never find any that don't make me feel like my grandmother (love her dearly), but these great styles would really accent my home!
I'd use this in my BOUDOIR, on my end table to aid in my in-bed reading ;o)
I'm a follower and LOVE this blog ;o)
So glad we have the same taste! Only... not sure which color I'd choose - they're fabulous!
Oh, and I'm a follower!
I would love it in the carrot color, I am redoing my apt right now from reds to oranges and this would fit in perfectly! I am a follower as well and will tweet about it.
Thanks!

Aw dammmnnn I'm an international reader :(
Anyhow, can't wait to see who wins ! :)
You always have the funnest giveaways!!
If I were to be the lucky recipient of one of these stylish lamps, I would put it in the dark corner area of my entry-way where I have a little telephone table (soon to be replaced by a mini bookshelf). My walls are blue so I would for sure pick the carrot colour for contrast and pop. The DIY has my mind spinning with ideas too :)
I've been a follower since my very first visit :)
Just placed a link to this giveaway on my blog on the side panel :)
Good luck everyone! :)
Love the lamp so cute! I would probably take the green base and use it in the bedroom, we need another night stand lamp.
Second entry - I am a follower of your fab blog!
Happy weekend!!
YOU make US smile!!
wooooweeeeee an awesome giveaway... hmmm can I take the lamp with me everywhere I go? heheh ok,ok, I'm not sure exactly where I would put it, but defiantly somewhere nice and visible at home :)
Seriously you have the best giveaways. I've been in love with the Oscar lamp for ages now. Our new place has scarce overhead lighting, so it would be perfect in my family room...not to mention that orange base would be the perfect way to add some orange to my family room. :)
xo
Oh, and I'm a follower. :)
Have a great weekend. xo
can't wait to know about your project, darling! have a wonderful weekend! xo
I am currently packing to move to a smaller apartment than my current one and the scale would be perfect for my console/ entertainment center in the living room!
And here's my bloggity blog

Hope I win!
Beautiful lamp! I'd put it in my living room to add a punch of color.
That lamp would be just lovely in my dual purpose library/dining room!
Love the lamp! It would look great in my new office! Thanks for the Chance!
I'm a follower! ( reader, I like reader )

This is awesome!! I would put it right beside my bed! Thanks!
These is such a great giveaway! I would put on desk in the office. Come by and visit, the new City Escapes series started today. I would love for you to be a part of it.
Gorgeous lamp! It belongs right next to my bed!
And I follow you, of course!
Have a great weekend, doll!
dude!!! what a rockin' lamp!!!
i think i'd put it on the table with the phone! yup, that is where it would go. yup. i am picturing it now.
i follow you. and pester you constantly!
and i love this giveaway.
it would also work rather nicely in my bedroom! ;)
have a great weekend!
I love this lil green lamp. It would definitely go in my room. Alfie and I keep saying we will go lamp shopping and never make it. So we have this wall lamp that is touch-based. Only problem is that it is sooo fickle. Sometimes it only needs a light tap, and other times you have to smack the thing to work! SO I would love this lil lamp.
And yeap, I'm a member / follower!
It would look great in my living room

I love this amazing green lamp. The shape, size and color would be perfect as a reading lamp in my bedroom!
I am also a new(ish) follower of your blog and am loving it!
Ooh, that grass green lamp would look great in my living room, which really needs some color. Awesome giveaway Christina!
And you know I'm a loyal follower (although I admit I've been a lurker lately and haven't commented as much as I should). Have a great weekend chick!
I'm not sure where I'd put this because if I won, I might give it to my brother and sister in law who just got married and will be moving soon and need all the furniture/house-y type items they can get. But I think it would be a great lamp to have on the bedside table or in the living room.

Of course I follow your blog. Love it!

This lamp would be great on my nightstand. I sometimes read before bed, and a soft-lighted lamp would be perfect for the job.
I follow this blog. Religiously.
I would put this lamp in my bedroom...i've been using a clip-on, college style reading lamp forever...and it's been on my list to get one forever...so please please please take something off of my ever-growing but never able to afford "TO BUY" list.
merci.
i smeared it ALL over my facebook! :)
Amazing giveaway!

Hi there, Christina, just to let you know I love your blog and have tagged you, on My Passport to Style. Sx
I'd put this lamp in our study.
Oh my. What a great giveaway...! Okay, well, I'd put it on a dresser I got not too long ago, in a room that at the moment is suffering from somewhat of an identity crisis...It'll probbaly be an office. Anyway. That lamp would be quite perfect.

Now that the kids are leaving home, I have several guest bedrooms that need a redo. Would love the olive base with natural linen shade for one of the rooms.
It is about time the rich started to seduce you with their wares. I read your blog, but follow? I think...or absence of thinking, a Gomes man does not follow anything? Wait what about folly? Darn. Keep the lamp! May the fashionably rich continue to raise the skirt!
In my new living romm - perfect!
I would put this lamp on my nightstand in my airy, all-white bedroom. It has the perfect pop of color and feminine curves to make just the right statement.
Love Love Love these lamps! I'm moving to a new home in the near future and it's much bigger then my one bedroom apartment I have now, so I'm in need of new goodies to fill up all the extra space. If I win one of these lamps I would put it in my living room. The base colors are a perfect match with my decor!

I am a follower!
I posted a link on my blog :)
Love the lamp - we are doing our babies room in white and citrus colors - so I would have to toss a coin to decide on green or orange...
Ooo, I love it! It would be set up quite nicely on my nightstand & my husband will get my old junky one (he doesn't really need a lamp anyway, right?).
I'm a follower, also!
Love them! I would put one on my desk since I don't have one right now!
And I am a follower :)
Love the color selections and shape of this lamp, a nice retro shape that would also fit into a modern aesthetic. i would put this in my bedroom which is probably the most eclectically styled room in the house, my lamps in here look horrible and these ones look so much nicer than what I'm working with now!
I'm following down and out chic, yay! Thank you so much for the giveaway, crossing my fingers!
Pick ME! Pick ME! Pick ME!

I'd so love this lamp. In fact, I think I need a pair to go on each side of our bed. LOVE them!
Follower!!
Love the lamp! It would look great in my office...
I would put it in my vanity area. Green for me.
ooo love it! i would put it where my old bedside lamp stood. before my kitty got curious and knocked it right off the nightstand.
SO CUTE! Love these lamps! I would put it in my guest bedroom!
ooooooooo, the green would be perfect in my black, white and green bedroom!
I am a new reader to the blog . . . but I love it! I think this lamp was meant for me . . . my boyfriend just moved from the east coast to California to be near me and just found his first west coast apartment this weekend. That lamp would make a lovely addition to his new living room, which only has a brown leather couch in it, so far.

i would put this lamp in my living room or my bedroom...
I would put this lamp in the new house that we plan to buy because our old one is too small so we're selling it. As far as which room.. probably the living room.
P.S. Koah is wearing one of his new x-tina shirts today and he looks really really adorable. Thanks again!
I would put it in my bedroom and then buy a second one to match!
