Set of Three Rustic Wooden Candle Holders with Tea Lights - $24.95
Shipping: Worldwide

These candle holders are made from wood we've found in our "backyard" along the Big Sur coastline after a big storm has whipped through. We only choose wood that has a mottled growth, lichen or budding that will add to its character. Expect a crack or two as well sometimes, for we find that only adds to the naturalness & character of each candle holder.

I came up with the idea of building rustic items for home decor after visiting my
sister in Ohio who lives in a rather unusual two-story log cabin. I've built wooden mirrors, coat racks, a lot of garden baskets and trivets (both for plants AND the kitchen).

1. The Cyprus Moon porch swing is lovely. We always mean to go out on our front porch, but our seating is not very comfy. This swing looks soooo relaxing....
2. Peggithas Pieces dragonfly print is gorgeous! I want to redo my bedroom and I have one piece of inspiration right now, a butterfly hook that would go perfectly with this print. I think this print would really get me going in this room!
3. Grace Hester Designs - love the idea of a family keepsake print. I am short on wall space, but I would find a place for it!

1. Energy efficient and great looking! I love that SteamLight Micro Lamp, and have found a perfect spot on my desk where I can enjoy its light and style.
2. I need that pillow and throw set for our green couch (which we're just getting re-covered). It's copper color is just right for the living room, with its reds, greens, and golds.
3. The pendant lamp from ReDesign Technologies is a great combination of modern style and repurposed materials. Sign me up!
4. I think I learned how to type on a typewriter just like this one -- but my Junior High typewriters never looked so good! I'm looking forward to displaying the Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging in our office.
5. I'm not sure which I like more: the design of the Visualingual placemats, or that they're "upcycled" from old gas station number signs. Great idea, and I love the eco-friendliness!

The light by Redesign Tech - how amazing - entry or hallway.
Vintage Typewriter Key Hanging - I love all her things.
Grace Hester prints for my boys' room.
Rowan's mirror - for my son Rowan.
Cyprus Moon Furniture - on porch to swing with my four boys!
Here are my choices!

(1) The Pendant Light by ReDesign Technologies
There are lighting fixtures in my current home that sorely needs updating. This is in line with what my husband and I like and would look great over our dining table!

(2) Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging by Susie Harris
I love typography anything and this piece will go perfectly beside my Helvetica poster print.

(3) Set of Three Rustic Wooden Candle Holders with Tea Lights by Lichenwoods
I like accents that have natural textures but in modern lines and this will look really nice in our guest bedroom

(4) Porch Swing by Cyprus Moon Furniture
I am embarassed to say that I don't even have a porch today but will be looking for one in our next home. Still, we have overhanging space in our backyard that could be a nice spot for this swing!
So many great choices and I would be thrilled to give a home to any of them but here are my five faves:

*The porch swing by Cyprus Moon furniture- I have always wanted a swing for my front porch but hadn't been able to buy one with all of the other new home expenses. I would hang it there and put a nice lap quilt and throw pillow on it and claim it as my new favorite spot!

* The SteamLight Micro Lamp by Lightexture- We have such cold and dreary winters here in West Virginia so lights and lamps are a must have. I love the light refraction pattern of this item and would likely place it in my hobby room or maybe even on the living room mantle so that everyone else could enjoy it, too!

* the funky spoons coat rack by JJ Evensen Art. Seriously, how fun is that????? We need a coat rack by our front door so that is exactly where it would go!

*the vintage mirror by Rowans Room. I love the ribbon hanger on this mirror and its size. It would go perfect with the guest room in our home that is decorated with big cabbage roses, a white matelasse, and little birds. Kind of a Shabby Chic kind of room. And what a coincidence...it doesn't have a mirror (yet)!

* gift certificate from GraceHesterDesigns- she has a wedding vows print I adore and have been wanting for some time. I would likely get one of those made with my wedding vows on it and then also get a penguin family print with the names of my family. I would probably hang the wedding vow print in my bedroom and place the penguin family print in the living room above the mantle.

Such great gifts they really all are fantastic!

2. The mirror from Rowan's room would look wonderful in my bedroom above the "vanity" I created using vintage iron brackets and a shelf I found and painted.
3. The lichenwoods wooden candles could go almost anywhere--on the console in the dining room, on the dining room table as a centerpiece, next to the tv on the entertainment console...

1) the Cyprus Moon Furniture - porch swing - great addition to my backyard
2) Turtles Creek Orginal - Shabby Black Shelf - this would be perfect in my foyer
3) Grace Hester Designs - $60 gift certificate - also in my foyer!
4)Rowans Room - Mirror - my bedroom
5) Susie Harris - Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging - this is hard! maybe our living room
1. I would be so happy to win Susie Harris's Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging. I would hang it on the empty wall in my guest room on the wall directly opposite the mirror in the pic. If it ended up not working there, I would either use it in my office or in my daughter's room. Lots of options.
2. $60 Gift Certificate to the Grace Hester Designs Etsy Store. I love pretty stationary. So I would buy a set for myself and a set to give as a gift.
3. The Aunt Bucky Furniture Crib Bumper Set and Sheets I would love to give as a gift for my neighbor that is trying to get pregnant. The brown, lime green, and yellow would go great with the colors she plans on using in her nursery.

Fabulous giveaway!! I can't pick a favorite I love them all!
Thank you for offering such a lovely giveaway. It was hard, but I winnowed it to 5 pieces that we would use as a treat after our whole house remodel of a 1951 in the Oakland hills. Photos of our home would show only mud and lumber!

ReDesign Technologies- let me count the possibilities- office, family room, kids room...
Peggithas Peices- Daughter's room (we speak Portuguese, the French is so similar)

2.Turtles Creek Originals
Shabby Black Shelf: This would be fabulous in my dining room or my entry.
3.Susie Harris

I love Susie's blog and would love to have the typewriter key painting. It would be prefect in my breakfast nook.
All the items are wonderful, but I would have to say I love the Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging by Susie Harris-the most. I have the perfect spot for it in my living room.

Susie Harris, Lichen Woods, Rowans Room, Grace Hester Designs
kharris says:
Cypress Moon Furniture's Porch Swing would look fabulous along the shaded section of our backyard patio.

I'd use the $60 gift certificate to Grace Hester Designs on a 2010 calendar for my studio, a custom personalized silhouette papercut for my son's room, and perhaps a set of personalized notecards, too.

The Rowans Room Vintage Mirror could go in the library; it only gets a little bit of sunlight (the windows in that part of the house face out into the fenced-in garden), so maybe it'd reflect the light into the room.
uffda says:

1. Susie Harris typewriter keys. I will put this in EVERY room of my house. That's right! I will rotate every day.
2. The rose covered chair. I will too put this in every room. But I don't share well so only my bohoncus will get to perch on it.
Seriously...please pick me. i have been a good girl this year.
lgrayart says:

~Thanks for the opportunity!~

ooooh! if i could win i would love either the porch swing or susie's vintage typewriter keys. everyone is so creative here.
This is a fun giveaway:} I don't have a lot of room in our new home but so I'm limited to what I could use if I won them...so here's my favs:
1. Lightexture: The Micro Lamp would be cool for my husband new "smaller" desk
2. Turtle Creek Oringals: The Shabby Black Mirror/Shelf would be a fun fixture in our entry way.
3. Grace Hester Designs: lovely certificate for new stationery
4. Parada Creations "What's in my drawers print" would look cool in my new kitchen.
I was admiring Susie Harris' typewriter keys project on her blog, and I can't believe it is entered in the contest. When she first posted it I was so inspired to start plans to turn my home office/guest room/exercise room into the office that I have always wanted. I have been on the lookout for an old typewriter like the one she found. What a great combination the two would make in my office. Thanks!
genkimari says:
Cypress Moon Furniture - perfect for our currently blah patio
$60 gift certificate from Grace Hester Designs - something unique for the family room!
Lightexture SteamLight Micro Lamp - an amazing piece for our office
Pillow Throw Decor Pillow and Throw Set - for MY bedroom, because my kids would destroy it if it were in the TV room LOL
Susie Harris Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging - would be delightful in the playroom where the kids can learn the ABCs

Thanks!!
slkhall says:
So many great gifts! My favorite items are:
1. Cypress Moon Furniture's porch swing. This would go in our back patio. We have a fantastic space back there with no furniture. If I had this swing, I don't think I would come back in the house! It's perfect for reading a good book, morning coffee and chatting with my kids.
2. Lightexture's SteamLight Micro Lamp is fantastic! This would go on my desk. I think I'd spend more time there with this lamp to light my work. So unique!

Thanks!
Romantic Louis XV chair from The Shabby Home. I would put it in my guest room, then move it eventually to my living room, then to my room. The best part is it matches most every room I have. It would be an elegant addition to my home that I am moving back into next month. It would be a great house warming gift ( :
dbbstitch says:
I would love something from Susie Harris or Grace Hester. Lovely items all around!
barb says:
What is not to love! It is all wonderful!
Rowans Room- I collect mirrors!
Porch swing brings back childhood memories.
Turtle Creek Shelf, I have a love affair with black.
Peace Hand perfect for my "hipppe" girlfriend, Cindy.
The Vintage Typerwiter keys, makes me smile, My Mom was a typing teacher for 35 years . I lost her to Breast Cancer a few years back and I have been collecting little things that remind me of Mom. This would be the best hanging in my office!
What a great giveaway. Thanks
Oh - what beautiful treasures! I have so many friends and 'decorating sisters' who I love dearly who would be thrilled to see any of these things on Christmas morning beneath their tree! If I would win any of them, I know exactly who I would give them to for Christmas...(though I just might keep the dazzling pendant light for myself *wink!) Merry Christmas to you all! :)
Oh my goodness, I love the typewriter keys. They would look so great in my home office that I'm trying to "finish" decorating since we moved into this house last year. Thanks so much for the chance to win!

I am a huge fan of Susie Harris, so that would definitely go in my living room or hallway.
The three wooden candles from Lichenwoods would go in my bedroom.
The gift certificate from Grace Hester Designs would go toward a family print and a calendar.
The pillow and throw set would be great for fall and would make an appearance in my living room.

1. Lightexture - I love interesting light sculptures and would really enjoy playing with this in my guest bedroom, which doubles as an office.
2. Pillow Throw Decor - Those colors would be a beautiful compliment in the master bedroom, which we just painted a rich green in an attempt to bring nature indoors.
3. Peggithas Pieces - Dragonflies are my absolute favorite, and these colors would make my new purple guestroom perfectly.
4. Lichenwoods - These would be beautiful in either the master bedroom or the living room. I have representations of trees and leaves hidden throughout the house to balance city life with my love of the outdoors.
user1red says:
What creativity!
Porch swing-always wanted one for my porch but never splurged.

I'm all about the Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging by Susie Harris. Where would this go? My someday home office... (note: the attached photo is the before - SOOO not yet renovated).
miss_k_p says:
What a great idea for a giveaway...thanks!
I'd like:

Numbers by Susie Harris. Have drooled over this since she first made it....gorgeous!
Porch Swing by Cypress Moon. How many summer nights could I spend here????
Candles by Lichenwoods. Wow, are they great!!!
miss_k_p@yahoo.com
1. ReDesign Technologies...I'm a light fixture junkie and this is one I definitely am not going to attempt on my own and it has such impact! Love it!
2. Turtle Creek Originals...this shelf could go anywhere, but I'm thinking it would be a great home for my bee collection
3. The Shabby Home chair, perfect for my tea parlor living room
4. Cyprus Moon porch swing...really is there any home that isn't better served by just another reason to hang outside?
5. Light Texture, I think even my design challenged husband could appreciate the fun and function of this piece!
I would love swinging the afternoon away in that beautiful porch swing.
The Louis XV chair would look so elegant in my sunroom! The fabric is just gorgeous!
I love black furniture and accents, so the Black Shabby Shelf would be a perfect addition!
...and I know my two cats would just adore snuggling in that luxurious cat bed!
What a great selection of prizes. I love the porch swing and the typewriter keys picture but, unfortunately, I don't live in the US, so here's my wish list:
Turtle Creek (shelf) - beautiful! I'd put this in my front foyer
JJ Evensen (coat rack) - This is so cool; it would look lovely in my back porch
Lightexture (lamp) - how cool is this! I'd use it in my office
Pillow Throw Decor (pillow and throw set) - this would be lovely in my living room. The colours are perfect!
I just love the Susie Harris typewriter keys! It would look perfect in my family room!!
texpert2 says:
The pillow and throw set from Pillow Throw Decor will be PERFECT in the living room to which I aspire. We were well on our way--we found our upholstered furniture at super bargain prices--when we found out we had foundation problems. We've been sidetracked to save for repairing the boring foundation, but when/if that is ever done, I'm ready to paint the living room, and start adding accessories, and this pillow/throw set will be absolutely fabulous on my rusty-ish brown leather sofa.

I also love the Cyprus Moon porch swing, but that one I would give to my sister. Her health is failing rapidly, but as long as she is able, she'll be making her way to the porch to visit with all the friends she has made over 30+ years in her neighborhood. I think that porch swing would make that experience all the more rewarding for her.
meola says:
Flower, my younger Tabby sister, is jealous of my luxurious bed near the heat vent and would really enjoy the Loveland Cat Bed. It would stop her from trying to use mine and actually I do like her but never let her know that. For both my sake and Flower's sake, I'm crossing my claws that she wins.
Purr,
Meola
mollyh says:
I would love the porch swing. need one bad.

2) Susie Harris Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging - I adore all of Susie Harris' work and would hand this wonderful piece in my office above my antique typewriter and books. What better inspiration?
3) The Shabby Home Romantic Louis XV chair - My historical home is Victorian and this chair would compliment the formal parlour or one of the bedrooms.
4) Rowan's Room Vintage Mirror - I would hang this in the family room surrounded by other vintage mirrors.
5) Turtle Creek Originals Shabby Black Shelf - I would hang this in a bedroom that features black furniture.

mzerr says:
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Susie's Typewriter Art, I am a follower of her blog and have always adored that peice. I actually just used it as inspiration for refinishing a shelf in our dining room, and the art would look beautiful nearby it.

I love Rowan's Room's vintage mirror, it would be perfect with the other vintage windows I have around our house, one is a chalkboard in our dining room, and the other boasts a vinyl letter Z in honor of our last name in the entryway.

Turtles Creek black shelf would be pefect for the end of our hallway between the bedrooms.

The front porch swing by Cypress Moon would be perfect for warm summer nights spent out in our yard.

And last but not least, the Louis XV Chair would be the perfect finishing touch to our master bedroom.

Thank you for this amazing opportunity, and for sharing such talented artists!

Wow- what a great giveaway!

In no particular order...

1. Cypress Moon Furniture Porch Swing : I just moved into my very first home and my patio is very bare (as in one lone side table). I am in desperate need of some seating and the porch swing would be perfect for it.

2. Visualingual Place Mats : I love the vintage look the screen print vintage doily gives these placemats. They would look great on my kitchen table.

3. Incredible Cat : I have two kitties and I'm sure they would enjoy curling up in the cat bed and watching over the house.

4. Lichenwoods Wooden Candles : These candles are great. I would put them either in the bedroom on the dresser, grouped as a center piece on my kitchen table, or on my coffee table.

5. Grace Hester Designs : I've always been a fan of strong typograpy that can carry itself and Grace Hester Designs embodies that. I particularly liked her calendars but everything is great. It would be very easy to spend $60 on the products.
shareen72 says:
Love love love! the black shelf from Turtles Creek for my entryway. Currently our entry way lacks anything to note it is an entry except the front door. I'd love to transform it into a space that offers transition. That would be perfect above a little table.

The pendant light by Redesign Technologies would hang above my dining room table. Currently only light in the dining room is a lamp, so it would be a very welcome addition.

The dragonfly artwork by Peggithas Pieces would hang in a special end nook of the hallway and be a showpiece.

The cabinet by Mr2 woodwork I would use in our living room to house the speakers we have that are currently eye-sores.

Of course the porch swing by Cypress Moon. I would actually use it indoors in front of our large picture window with cozy bench pad and oh hey the quilt pillows by Jillians Shoppe!

5. The Pillow and Throw Set by Pillow Throw Decor would look beautiful on my living room couch.

4. Placemats would look absolutely fab in my kitchen
5. Stream light on my computer desk

Oh my! There are two items that are definitely on my wish list:

I've always loved Susie Harris and her beautiful creations. That vintage typewriter keyboard hanging would look absolutely stunning in my office - I even have the perfect spot for it on the wall, perfect for our little Cottage8.

Another beauty that caught my eye was Lichenwood's set of 3 rustic wooden candleholders. I'm all about rustic and nature, and this would look stunning in my living room.

Thank you for such a generous giveaway!

The porch swing will definitely find a home on my front porch, the candles in my Living Room, and I am sure that my Wife will find good use for all the rest! :)
I'm loving the:
1. Cypress Moon porch swing
2. Susie Harris hand painted picture.
3. Grace Hester Gift cert.

Great items from etsy! Thank you for the chance to enter a drawing!
First, Aunt Bucky Furniture's baby bedding is beautiful. One of our interior designer's recently left us to have a baby and I would give this to her as a gift - I think it would be fantastic for a child's creative development!

Second, I love the Susie Harris typography wall hanging - I think it would be fantastic in the office, above my desk (and my vintage typewriter). I have been looking for something like this for a while...

Third, I think the Grace Hester Designs prints would be FANTASTIC in the entryway above some vintage coat hooks...it is a great graphic representation of the contrast between contemporary and vintage.

I absolutely love Etsy and love shopping on the site. They always have amazing finds and one of a kind things and make fantastic gifts for everyone.

As much as I would love to have everything displayed,

I would really love the Susie Harris vintage typewriter keys hanging. I have an old Royal typewriter that my father used on display in my office and this hanging would be great over the typewriter!

I would like The Pillow and Throw Set by Pillow Throw Decor would look beautiful on my new living room couch.

lizzie says:
What a great giveaway!! I'd love to win the typewriter keys board, the black mirrored shelf, the candles and the pendant light! Love,love ,love this website!!!
What delicious items to drool over right around the holidays! I just love my new favorite website Houzz. If I had to pick my faves:
1. I'd love to surprise my hubby with the Cypress Moon Porch Swing - what a great idea for the fold-down console - and done with such great style. Would be perfect hanging from my new porch and soon-to-be built pergola.
2. I would love to hang the pendant light from ReDesign Technologies in my home art studio/office. How perfect would that be - an every day item, the paper clip (speaking to the home office) made into an art form for my art studio?!
3. The Vintage Typewriter Keys by Susie Harris are just awesome and would look great in the open space at my ad agency.
4. The Loveland Cat Bed would be cherished by my family's feline, Puddy Tat.

Cypress Moon Furniture - OMG, love the console. Hubby and I could have a place to "place" our wine while swinging. Very clever.
Aunt Bucky Furniture - Hubby and I are trying to have a baby, and this bedding is super duper cute.
Turtles Creek Originals - I love anything crafty and creative. This "door"? is really sweet. I would put it in our den/study.
Susie Harris - Love the typewriter keys. Saw this in a Gump's magazine and loved it! So glad to find it on Houzz/Etsy
Grace Hester Designs - Would love to have personalized stationary. Just changed my name last year, and I still haven't gotten new stationary. Love this!

What beautiful giveaways!!
1. Vintage Keys by Susie Harris OMG that is the coolest picture I've seen! I would put it in my new game room. I love, love, love it!!
2. Lightexture Steam Light Micro Lamp--what a great piece of art!
3. Grace Hester Designs--I love the simplicity of her work!
Thanks for doing this giveaway!!
what a gracious give away! I have my fingers and toes crossed!
I recently moved into a new condo and after 4months have yet to put anything on the walls besides paint. I need some inspiration! The Piggithas Pieces dragonfly is amazing!! So colorful and cheerful! The Susie Harris typewriter keys would also be a great conversation piece! Both would work in my new "mother earth" colored living room!

I would love the Susie Harris vintage typewriter key painting!! I would hang it in my rustic/vintage living room. The lichenwood candle holders are gorgeous as well. They would be beautiful on my coffee table during the holidays!!
linda22 says:
#1Susie Harris's type writer wall hanging is Gor*geous! Would go perfectly over my sofa table in the front room.
#2 Visualingual place mats are perfect for my new chinaware!!
#3 Rowan's room mirror is simple beautiful! I want it for my hallway
I LOVE the vintage keys painting!! It would be awesome in my living room because I collect vintage typewriters.
I would use the porch swing from Cypress Moon Furniture on my front porch, and the chair from Shabby Home would go in my eclectic office as well as the pendant light from redesign technologies. Then I would put the black shelf from Turtles Creek Orginals over my bed as the crowining focal point.
I've got you beat. By 18, I had lived in 50, yes 50, different places. My mom was always trying to find herself. I have been in my house now for 24 years. My very favorite items here are the lighting and typewriter key print, but between myself and my two daughters who have their first roommateless apartments there might be a pillow fight over who gets what on this list.
1) Cypress Moon Furniture - would love to put this swing up in our new yard and relax on those nice summer evenings after a long day of work!
2) Susie Harris - What a fun piece!! Would hang it in my new laundry room or hallway or guest bedroom/office. It'd be neat just about anywhere! Love it!
3) Visualingual - What a great way to add dainty to the eating area and not get it dirty!
4) Rowans Room - mirrors go anywhere! =)
5) Lichenwoods - would SO put these on my mantle and light them for a warm cozy evening - maybe put them in the fireplace in the summer for a great look!

Thanks for the great giveaways!

1. Lightexture - As someone who can easily be entertained by the play of light for hours, your SteamLight Micro Lamp is gorgeous! It would make a perfect and unique edition to my home office (which is sadly lacking in good lighting at the moment).

2. Cypress Moon Furniture - That is a very beautiful porch swing and would look lovely on my front porch. Our yard is frequented by many neighbors throughout the year and it would be nice to offer them such a lovely place to sit.

3. Incredible Cat - My cat, Kaylee, would enjoy your Loveland Cat Bed. She's a beautiful torti and would claim the bed as her throne - from which she would watch me surf www.houzz.com for more great decorating ideas. She thinks it looks purrfect and would love to snuggle up for a nap in it right now.

4. Turtles Creek Originals - Your Shabby Black Shelf would make a wonderful edition to our living room. It is such a beautiful and unique shelf and I love that it was made from a vintage table.

Great holiday party! I've gained many ideas for things to use in my own decorating. Thank you!
Thank you so much! What fun!
1. Susie Harris - I love her blog and that piece is one that I have been wanting to get for my school room.
2. lightexture - My husband's modern style and my country love married together in one piece? Where couldn't I use that light?
3. Turtle Creek - I would love to have the shelf for use in my bedroom. Candle light in a place where the kids and animals can't get to them!
4. Grace Hunter Designs - that little goody would be a treat for Mrs Claus this year! LOL!
5. Lichenwoods - I adore the candle holder that would look AWESOME in my entryway.
thanks for the giveaway! I hope I can win something. I like the woodworking. My hubby designed a logo for our family reunion shirts one year (it was a true celtic knot in the shape of an M & took him a long time). His uncle plotted it out on his machine & transfered it to a block of wood for him. Very unique
OH MY WORD! LOVE this giveaway!!! Here are my favorites..
1. Susie Harris- I've been eyeing this piece for quite awhile... I would put it over my couch in the living room!
2.Aunt Bucky- I would use this in my 3 month old girls bedroom... to die for!

4.Rowans Room- Love this mirror! Perhaps in a bedroom? I'd love to have one in every room of my house!
5.lichenwoods- LOVE these!!!! They would look sweet inside my fireplace!

Thanks for such a great giveaway!
What a generous contribution these craftspeople have made to Houzz! The items that I ciuld really use in my new home in coastal British Columbia, Canada are:

SteamLight Micro Lamp from Lightexture- I would usee this to add glamour to the wall in my foyer
Pillow and Throw set from Pillow Throw Decor would be lovely in the reading nook I will develop this spring, in my bedroom, which can be a bit cool
the gift certificate from Grace Hester Designs would help me to be more gracious in writing thank you notes to those who have been so good to me!

Thanks so much for doing this. I love Houzz, it is my favorite decor site.

This is one amazing list! For my 5 I'd have to say...

1. Cypress Moon Furniture - the porch swing. We're in the process of re-creating our backyard due to having to rip the entire thing out when we had to put in a new drainfield.
2. Pillow Throw Decor - the pillow & throw. Beautiful, decadent, elegant... I'd love to put them in my living room or my bedroom (tough call!)

4. JJ Evensen Art - the funky spoons purple & pink coat rack. My niece for Christmas. Perfect for her teenage room!
5. Lichenwoods - 3 rustic wooden candle holders w/tealights. My family room or on the mantle in my living room. I'm not sure which room I'd like them in better but one thing is for sure - they're candle-related. I'm in love.

1)Susie Harris- Vintage Hanging (I have been dreaming of this adorable piece)
2)The Shabby Home- (This would look so cute in my house)

You really know how to throw a party - I love your site, I always am able to find something I can use or an idea I can incorporate. I loved the house on the Ocean and the colors used to decorate it. Turtles Creek Originals Shabby Black Shelf is so unique and distinctive. As you come in the front door, you can see the bedroom wall where it would be outstanding. Thank you for the choices. Blessings, Janet

we are in the process of buying a cottage by the bay, well actually, a block from the bay, but close enough. I have visions of the

the Turtles Creek Originals
Shabby Black Shelf Would look awesome in the entryway
the Grace Hester Designs, how wonderful to have a custom sign for our new place.
I would love to win the Romantic Louis XV Chair by The Shabby Home. Since I collect paintings of roses and have roses on my vintage curtains. This chair would be perfect for my master bedroom.

scorwin says:

I have been admiring Susie Harris typewriter keys hanging for quite a while. This would look great in my home office. The black shelf from Turtles Creek is right up my alley and would be fabulous in my foyer. Thanks for a great giveaway!
Sherry

Of course the The turtle Creek Originals Shabby Black Shelf is also amazing and would look great ANYWHERE in my house. And I would be thrilled of course to win the Grace Hester Design Certificate, who wouldn't?
cwisener says:
Cypress Moon's swing will be the perfect place to sit and sip a glass of wine as I watch the sun set and then the moon rise at my little cabin in The Great Smoky Mountains.

Peggithas Pieces, love the print, not sure where it would go yet, it would look great in the entry though.

2. Love the Vintage Mirror from Rowans Room. I adored antique/repurposed items. This piece has class AND character. A must-have for my daughters' bathroom.

3.The personalized items in Grace Hester Designs Etsy Store have wonderful clean lines. Love the simplicity paired with the traditional touch of personalization and monogramming.
sandy says:

ms_pea says:
I would love the Loveland Cat Bed for my two cats, Emma and Angus...I guess they'd have to fight over who would get to use it, though! It would in my living room under my big picture window, so they could nap in luxury!

I would also love the ReDesign Technologies Pendant Light...it would be a great gift for my very creative brother--it would be right up his alley!
I would love to win:
1) the Aunt Bucky crib & Bumper set - my little Sis is expecting her first baby next June.

My favorite is the Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging by Susie Harris - I love it! We're re-doing our bedroom in black and white right now, and it would look great in there!!
I would love a personalized family print by Grace Hester - they are so pretty!
The porch swing by Cypress Moon furniture would be fabulous! We've been wanting a porch swing ever since we had our first baby (SIX years ago!!) I think it's time we get one! The Pillow and throw set from Pillow Throw Decor is beautiful and would be great in my living room - we have a very neutral couch that's been needing something - I think this would perk it up! The Turtles Creek Originals Shabby Black Shelf is a lovely piece that would be great in lots of places in my house - I'm thinking the living room is where I would start with it! Thanks for the chance to win such wonderful things!!
Yay Merry Christmas! Awesome giveaway! I'm loving the Shabby Home chair and I would totally use that at my desk. Love it!
susie says:
Such talented....and generous people out there! Hope I win. Happy Holidays!!
woww says:
I absolutely LOVE the Stream Light, and the way the light plays on the wall, I just finished a office area off the bedroom, that I have been working on for two months. Oh my gosh it is perfect, dramatic, striking, and I would love to look at it for hours and hours while I read.
hroms says:
1. The Vintage Typewriter Keys hanging is so lovely. It really should be hanging in our home office!
2. The Shabby Black Shelf is so unique! Again, it would be right at home on the wall in our home office.
3. The Lightexture Stream Light Micro Lamp has me completely mesmorized. It is stunning, and clever, and therapuetic.
4. The Visualingual Placemats have completely stolen my heart. Adorable, and just super creative.
5. The Shabby Home Louie XV chair is amazing. It would fit perfectly in my girls' bedrooms!
1 Redesign Technologies -- I love the light fixtures... I need a new one in my kitchen over the table.
2 Incredible Cat -- I have three cats who would love to have a play gym in our living room
3 Mr2 Wood Works -- I could use a stand in the corner of my dining room.
4 Lichenwoods -- I need new candles in the bedroom

5 Benjay -- still looking for that perfect piece of art for my bedroom.
I would love to win the Cypress Moon Furniture porch swing as my outdoor swing is not in it's best shape! ( Jillian's Shoppe's featured quilted pillows would look great with this swing!) If I couldn't win either of those, I would love to win the Vintage Typewriter Key Hanging by Susie Harris and hang it over my desk. The vintage mirror by Rowans Room would look lovely over my sofa. If I couldn't win any of the above mentioned, I would still be very happy with the $60 gift certificate from Grace Hester Designs. I would order some of her thank you cards and send one to Houzz to thank them for this lovely giveaway and tell them how much I enjoy all the pictures, information, and interviews on Houzz! Thanks!
Amazing choices! Some that caught my eye (in no particular order, I love them all!):
1. Redesign Technologies Fixture - can you say amazing and incredibly unique? I would hang this in my stairway...the light would bounce around beautifully on the sloping ceiling
2. Aunt Bucky Crib Bedding - so I'm not preggo (yet!), but I've already been scoping out cribs and bedding, and this is so adorable.
3. Susie Harris Vintage Keys - seriously awesome! I love all things typewriter, and I have the perfect spot for it in my dining room!
4. Grace Hester Designs - love all of the prints...I want a 2010 calendar, an anniversary keepsake print, a modern alphabet, a family keepsake print, and pretty much everything else.
5. Rowan's Room Antique Wood Frame Mirror - I'm loving the wood and the sweet ribbon together. I'm debating whether this would go in my entryway or in my bedroom. Decisions, decisions.
I love, love, love Susie Harris' work and her blog! She's such a sweetheart - it'd make me smile to see it, just knowing it was from her. Our family recently moved into a new home, and I have next to nothing on the walls at this point. I would put that lovely vintage typewriter piece in this room on the wall behind the sofa :)

Thanks to the crafters that have generously donated these products. The creativity and the colours are amazing. My five favourites are:
1) pillow and throw....would look great in my living room
2) Dragonfly print....I have a friend with a great dragonfly collection. The colours in this print are amazing and she would just love it. What a great gift it would make.
3) porch swing...would be great on our large sundeck
4) bumper pads....all our friends are becoming grandparents. I have known some of their children since they were born. This bumper pad set wouldmake an awesome baby gift.
5) Loveland cat bed....my daughter's cat, Pokey, would think he had died and gone to heaven or wait a minute....been given the bed he so justly deserves.
and if I admit I can't count....6) the kitchen print with the spoons. I like it!
nessar12 says:
these are all such great and wonderful gifts but i would definitely say that these are my favorites!
1.Lightexture
SteamLight Micro Lamp- its so perfect for my room. i love lights, especially cool looking ones like these. it would fit in really well with my other light fixtures that i have.
2.Susie Harris
Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging - i'm planing on taking down lots of the things i currently have on my wall(posters and awards ect...) and making a new look for my room. this would definitely work for what i have in mind.
3.Lichenwoods
Set of Three Rustic Wooden Candle Holders with Tea Lights - okay, so this wouldn't really be for me and i would hardly ever see it, but my brother would be in love with these candles. he always has candles going on in his room and hes the kind of guy who likes to bring the outdoors in, so this would be perfect for him.
4.The Shabby Home
Romantic Louis XV chair- i seem to have a very difficult time with chairs. all of my chairs that i've had were all wicker and or had a very thin seat so they would always break, but this chair seems like it would hold up very well and i love the color. its really quite nice.
5. Benjy
hand painted coat hanger - this probably should be first on my list or the only thing on my list at all, because its the one thing that i really really want from all of the stuff on here. ben is a great artist and i've been following his blog(and twitter) for about one year maybe longer, i can't remember, but he's such a talent and i've been meaning to buy something from his store but i honestly don't have the money , i'm only 16 and currently unemployed. so if i were to get something from him that would be so amazing! he deserves something of his to be sold and i really want any of his art. even if this time it is a coat hanger. :)
I could list way more than 5 but here's my favorites
1. of course I'd have to have a Cypress Moon Furniture "Giant Cyrpress Swing Bed" I can imagine spending warm summer evenings on this just watching the fireflies!
2. i love the totem light from Lightexture..love the shadowplay..would be cool to have in hallway to light the nightwalkers
3. Peggithas pieces' Snake Table is to die for...love to have it in my bedroom..which would immediately become a bedoir with this addition
4. My daughter would love to have Gracehesterdesigns' "three 4X6 print of Peace Love and Joy in Asian characters..hanging in her room ..great message too
5. Aforementioned daughter would then just have to have JJevenson's "Peace Special set of Silverware coat hooks to go along side the print!
Thanks for giveaway..this is too awesome!

unfluff says:
I recently became the proud homeowner. Problem is, the place is in its original condition (circa 20 years ago) & I'm looking at a bomb to renovate the place. But there is a dream home waiting to emerge from the leaky ceilings & termite-infested floors, so any help I can get would go a long way. And I live in Singapore, so it'd be nice to have one of the Etsy finds make its way to my tropical neck of the woods!

I'm loving the porch swing for my rooftop deck (photo attached), but seeing as how that doesn't ship globally, I'm looking at the pendant lamp.

I would love to have the swing seat to relax on after the refurb of my house it is just what I need
Boy, it's hard to pick just 5!
1. The porch swing. Until I get my true dream house with a large wraparound porch, I have always wanted to hang a porch swing in the living room, next to our large picture window with some colorful pillows and homemade cushions. This would definitely do the trick!
2. The Turtle Creek black mirror/shelf. It would be perfect in my black, gold and cheetah themed dining room. I'd have to add my set of 6 elegant mercury votives across the shelf. Once lit, they would provide a beautiful reflection in the mirror.
3. Susie Harris Typewriter Keys Hanging. Wow! What an awesome piece and one that would be absolutely perfect in my newly remodeled living room, done in light creamy blues, creams, blacks and tans. I have an empty spot on one wall, just waiting for the perfect piece. This is it!
4. The Shabby Home Louis the XV chair. Again, another perfect piece. My youngest is getting a new desk for X-mas in her cottage, shabby chic bedroom and we didn't get a chair yet. The desk is very "shabby" and this is the exact type of chair I've been looking for.
5. Definitely the Lichenwoods Candle Holders. Who couldn't find a spot for this gorgeous, natural trio? I think the shabby mantle in my living room would make the perfect home for them.
I'm so thrilled to have found this site and will keep my fingers crossed! This is an awesome giveaway.
Happy Holidays to all!
krissiewiseman@mac.com
I'm lucky enough to already have Susie's Typewriter Keys - I lOVE it!
1. I would rank as the "best wife" for at least a week if I won the Sports Hanger from Todo Cecilia Shop.
2. The Shabby Black Shelf would look precious in either of my girls' rooms.
3. I would keep the Rowan Room mirror all to my self! Probably in my scrapbook room.
4. The Grace Hester stationery would make every handwritten note even sweeter!

Thanks for the chance to win these fantastic items!
I love all of the give aways. I especially liked the Louis XV chair by shabby chic. I would use this chair in my bedroom.
eio_mom says:
Thank you Etsy and Houzz for this great party. I just love the JJ Evensen Art Funky spoons purple and pink coat rack. It will brighten up my kitchen and bring such whimsy (and possibility) to the ever-challenging act of getting my three kids to "hang up your jackets!"
eio_mom says:
A perfect complement to hang alongside my husband's favorite spot in our house to write. Susie Harris' Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging inspires the writer in us all, inviting each of us to consider the power of words held within the simplicity of a letter. Lovely.
I have a chair fettish, and love shabby chic, so the Romaintic Louis xv chair would have a place of honor in my little rose cottage. My daughter is the loge type and would fall instantly in love with Lichenwoods candle holds would make her smile!
eio_mom says:
I've been searching for a piece to place in my entryway that communicates what guests can expect upon their visit: a warm welcome. The Turtles Creek Originals
Shabby Black Shelf is the perfect solution. What a beautiful, inviting and original way to decorate a space in my home that's important to me. Thank you for the inspiration.
I would love to win the following: the Louix IV Chair, for my daughter's bedroom. The Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging I would use in my office. The Grace Hester Designs Print I would love to place in my bedroom. The birds remind me of myself and my two kids and the bird standing off to the side sort of reminds me of someone about to enter my life. I would love the print of the utentils to place in my kitchen. I love dragonflys now. I use to be afraid of them when I was little. For some reason I was told they were witchdoctors. Now I love them and think they are beautiful. I would love to have that Dragonefly print hanging in my bathroom.
eio_mom says:
This Peggithas Pieces Dragonfly Print would bring such delight to my guest bathroom. A great reminder that just as a dragonfly's deep rich color enhances over time, we too get better with age. Gorgeous and thought provoking.
I would hang the porch swing from Cypress Moon Furniture on the porch, obviously. :0) I would put the pendant light from ReDesign Technologies in my kitchen or son's room. The mirror from Turtles Creek Originals would go in my bedroom. And , one of my most favorite items, the candle holders from Lichenwoods would go in any number of places in my home.
The porch swing would be great in our yard. We need a place to stop and reflect!
The Turtle Creek shabby black shelf would make it's new home in our walk out basement that is about to get a face lift! And it would be lots of fun to shop at Grace Hester Designs. Oh...of course Susie's typewritter art is wonderful, too!
1. The Cypress Moon Furniture porch swing would be a wonderful addition to our front porch! I can only imagine the hours that we'd spend on it.
2. Grace Hester Designs gift certificate would be lovely to have. I'd love to choose wall art for our bedroom or living room to further personalize our home.
3.Rowan's Room vintage mirror is gorgeous and would fit perfectly in our entry.
4. Turtle Creek Originals shelf has a beautiful finish that would match a bench in our dining room.
5. The Susie Harris vintage typewriter keys hanging would look great in our bonus room!
cnwhite says:
1. Aunt Bucky's Bumper Pads...Baby on the way in March so I would love to win these! They would work perfectly in the room we are preparing.
2. Susie Harris' Alphabet. I am working on converting one of our rooms upstairs into an office, and this would add the perfect touch.
3. Rowans Room Vintage Mirror. We just finished painting a bedroom upstairs that has antique furniture that this mirror would complement so well.
4. Lichenwoods Rustic Candles. They look beautiful and would be perfect for the mantle in our den. They also would make a perfect gift for my sister whose decor is often more rustic than mine....she'd love them, too!
5. Turtle Creek Originals Shabby Black Shelf....Would work perfectly with an upstairs bedroom that incorporates blue and black.
ahrisha says:
The chair from The Shabby Home with the pink flowers would look amazing in my diningroom or bedroom.
I have been looking for a porch swing to hang from the deck so that I can swing on the porch below. This is amazing.
My kitty would love the bed from Incredible Cat.
msbakeit says:
1. The Cyprus Moon Porch Swing - I have wanted to get one to hang in my back yard under my cypress tree. This swing looks great and I love the drink holder.
2. Aunt Bucky ‘Winky Wonderland’ Crib Bumper Set and Sheets – This would look gorgeous in the nursery I am going to add to my home for my first grandbaby who will be born next May! Love the colors!
3. Rowans Room Vintage Mirror – Would also look great in the nursery.
4. Peggithas Pieces Dragonfly Print - Gorgeous! I love dragonflies and this print would look great in my home office!
5. Susie Harris Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging - I love it! This too would be perfect for my home office.

What an awesome giveaway! I also love the cat bed but if I only got one, there would be some very disgruntled cats in my home!

royze says:
I’m moving next week to an apartment in a neighborhood I’ve always wanted to live in. But, I’ll have some fixing-up to do, and this contest would help me along so much!

1. Susie Harris. I’m a typography nerd! I actually squealed a little when I saw this painting. Just lovely. It’d go smack in the middle of my living room.

2. Visual Lingual. I’ve loved their stuff ever since I saw their prints at a craft supermarket in my hometown of Cincinnati. They’re so funky and inspired and these placemat would perk up my boring table.

3. Incredible Cat. My cat is moving with me, of course, so I’d like to give her something to say thanks for putting up with all the hustle and bustle!

4. Lightexture. I love the idea of using actual light as decoration. Not a fan of harsh overhead lighting, so this is perfect for me. It’d be beautiful in my bedroom.

5. Rowans Room. This is so feminine and functional! I’d put it in my bedroom because the mirror in my bathroom is so small. :(
bhuffman says:

avia1976 says:
Cypress Moon Furniture’s Porch Swing – We just added a 10 feet deep side porch to our home that connects to our front porch, and it definitely needs a swing!

Turtle Creek Original’s Shabby Black Shelf – In addition to our new porch, we added a sunroom/breezeway/entryway that connects our home to our new porch and garage. This shelf would be perfect!

Susie Harris’ Vintage Typewriter Keys would be perfect on a large wall in my living room that I have been trying to figure out how to decorate. And, I’m a follower of her blog, so I would love to have some of her art!

Rowans Room’s Vintage Mirror would be perfect in my master bath that I am going to be redoing soon.

2. Rowan's Room's Vintage Mirror. This would look perfect in my family room!!!
ayeleth says:
Wow, I just loved these crafts. Here are my top 4:
1. Crib Bumper Set and Sheets - the coloring is just so relaxing and calming (and I hope the babe will think this way too). Makes me wish I lived in the States (so I could have a chance of winning this one).
2. Pillow and Throw Set - a great way of adding a touch of nature and of autumn without going out to the cold.
3. Set of Three Rustic Wooden Candle Holders with Tea Lights - Well, I'm just a sucker for candles.
4. 2 quilted pillows - they will never fit into my place/bed/sofa but they remind me of my first (and almost only) trial in making quilted pillows.
lorri says:
I love the Susie Harris typewriter keys and would put them in our home office and the Grace Hester Designs print would go in my entryway.

chantal says:

Also like the pendant light from paperclips, and the recycled place mats, and the garden shelf.
erinm says:
I love the vintage mirror. I just love it! I also think the spoon/pink/purple coat hanger is totally fun and cute. My roommate has 2 very sweet cats and I would be so excited to give them a new, fancy place to sleep.
wow- what a fantastic collection of talented artisans!
Cypress Moon Furniture Porch Swing -
wants to live a life of relaxation hung from my poor (currently naked) back deck so we can "learn to be still" & enjoy the view.

Pillow Throw Decor Pillow and Throw Set-
matches the fireplace screen, kindling stand & tools in my livingroom & would add some fantastic detail & warmth to my modern/whimsical decor. They would be showcased beautifully against my taupe cube-sectional furnature & dutchess blue walls.

Lichenwoods, Set of Three Rustic Wooden Candle Holders with Tea Lights -
would also add some fabulous texture & warmth by my harth in the livingroom!

Susie Harris , Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging -
would be a wonderful addition to my "personal etsy treasury" wall. the boring blank wall in front of my kitchen desk is being transformed into an inpiring collection of art from etsy! This wall will indude pieces from allieart4children & violetbellaphoto so far...

Lightexture SteamLight Micro Lamp-
I want desperately to say that this fantastic lamp would live a long & happy life on my desk as a highly functional task light that just happens to be intrigingly beautiful as well... but I am posative that upon it's arrival in our home it would find it's way into the domain of my daughter (etsy seller: gypsygiraffe) with the excuse that she needs better light for her jewelry desinging.

Merry Christmas! & thanks for decking the halls of your fabulous fans!

Wow!
I would love to win the swing, the typewriter hanging, the vintage mirrow, the black shabby shelf and the bedding set!
gwen says:

3. ReDesign Technologies light fixture - great anywhere, but I'd put it in my front hall!

1. Susie Harris - Vintage Typewriter Keys Hanging: this would fit in great with my other vintage art in my living room
2. Lichenwoods - Rustic Wooden Candle Holders: I would put these in the bedroom, to add a touch of earthy fun
3. Rowans Room - Vintage Mirror: I love the recycled wood look, and would use this piece in my entryway
4. ReDesign Technologies - Pendant Light: I would replace the hideous fixture currently in my work room with this fun one
5. Visualingual - Placements: These would, of course, fulfill their destiny as placemats by getting sufficient traffic on my kitchen table...

Oh Houzz- you shouldn't have...but I'd be happy if you did pick me. Cause you seem to know the best things. Since I am carving out a desk area in our laundry room, I'd love a few things to make it seem creative/officey:
1 the typewriter key piece for the wall
2) the paperclip light fixture
3) the awesome chair
4) the shabby black shelf...

So, if I don't win, please tell Santa, cause I really don't need another small appliance :)

Susie Harris-vintage typewriter keys hanging
Love! Love! Love it!
It would be perfect for my living room!!!
I rented out my house to a tenant who ruined the beautiful couches you see here in this picture. Now I am redecorating and stumbled upon a french pink leather sectional and I have roses everywhere and the Louis XV chair would be a beautiful addition. In the process of moving during the holidays and am by myself, so this would be the greatest x-mas present. Happy holidays to all.
1. The porch swing: OUTSIDE:)
2. Aunt Becky Bedding: for the baby we will have oneday
3. SUSIE HARRIES : VINTAGE TYPEWRITER!! LOVE LOVELOVE

Dear Houzz,
For Christmas this year I would love the following items for my very own houzz.

1.) Cypress Moon Furniture: This porch swing would be perfect for my backyard....whether it's a romantic night under the stars with a glass of wine, or just a conversation with one of my best friends in our pjs drinking lemonade--those cup holders will be utilized!
2.) Lichenwoods: These candles would bring a touch of nature and light to my family room table. I love anything that lets me bring the great outdoors inside!
3.) ReDesign Technologies: How cool is this light fixture? I would use it to light up my recently renovated garage. Garages aren't usually the most stylish areas of a home so this would be an amazing upgrade. Also, my garage double functions as a bike shop and this fixture just seems to fit right in with the bike theme.

Thanks Houzz! I promise I've been a good girl this year!
