    I would spread the goodies around my house, but most would end up in my living & dining rooms with some going to my bedroom also.

  3. HollowSquirrel says

    DINING ROOOOOOM! It’s time to FINALLY cover the mistake paint color (that we were too cheap and tired to return and have fixed) and finish that room! Please!

  4. Jaime Costiglio says

    Kim yes please! My Living Room / Great Room is in dire need of some need sofas and a rug not too mention built ins, etc. I would make some great use of either prize package to get it done!

  11. Anonymous says

    I would spread the love! I live in a 80 yr old house that my grandfather built, and each space could use sprucing up

  15. kelly says

    Definitely my kitchen! Bye bye honey oak everywhere! What a great giveaway full of so many fun things!

  17. Nicci says

    I would focus mainly on the master bedroom, but I’d also love to make my bathrooms more warm and friendly (design-wise).

  23. Cindyt says

    I would Lovvvvve to update the Living and Dining Room in my Little Red Log Cabin. Then I would spread the Love around in little spots here and there.

  24. Karen Colony says

    I would love to redo my bedroom! It’s part of the addition – the room over top of the garage. It’s huge and ends up being a dumping ground for all the stuff that has no ‘place’. I would love to make it a ‘suite’ with a sitting/reading area on one side and the bedroom on the other. Here’s hoping 🙂

  32. Nicole says

    Just about to move into a 650 sq ft place with my partner, so we’d probably spread the love throughout the place to make it home!

  33. Lindsay Chenault Bolton says

    Amazing Give-Away! My husband and I are about to welcome our first baby and have been doing a lot of home improvements to get ready for her. But if we won this, I think I would redo our master bedroom to make it more cozy and comfy.

  34. Kim says

    I totally would use it for my kitchen. I have been wanting to start a home business making baked goods – cupcakes and wedding cakes – but need to upgrade my countertops in order to comply with my state’s cottage food law. Thanks for doing this giveaway!

  35. Amy says

    My kitchen!! 20 year old builder grade cabinets and hunter green counter tops…needs major help!

  37. Julie M says

    I would love to make over our bedroom. We have never had the money for nice furniture and bedding there. Thank you for a chance at a great give a way!

  44. JenG says

    We just moved into a new house around Thanksgiving. Most of the rooms are okay, but the front living room is just a blank space. I really need to work on that room

  45. Anonymous says

    Where to begin? We just moved into a wonderful, but outdated (and unloved) older home. Everything needs to be beautified! Since we spent the weekend converting a loft into a bedroom for our new baby boy, we both exhausted ourselves and our budget. It would be terrific to decorate this room in style!

  48. Anonymous says

    I would do our Family room. It’s been years since we have been able to update this room & it’s the room we use the most as a family. The grown kids & the 2 dogs all pile on the couch to enjoy family time. Our couch needs to be replaced & other updates would be beautiful!!

  49. Sheilam57 says

    I would definitely re-do my kitchen. No counter space, not enough storage. I do cake decorating on the side and even though my kitchen is big, the layout is all wrong. I’ve been trying to re-do a little at a time, but I would love to be able to just have it done in a flash.

  52. Anonymous says

    I would redo my living room that my children have been determined to destroy for the past eight years:) . Need new everything–art, pillows, couches, flooring! We have a pillow I made that says ” Please excuse the mess we live here!lol

  58. Krista M. says

    I’ve been saying that I want to redo my living room for the last 3 years, and I’ve decided this is the year I will finally do it! This website and one of these prize packages would go a long way in motivating and inspiring me!

  61. Anonymous says

    My kitchen/morning room area needs a major update. These 16yr old builder grade cabinets need to go!!!!!
    Erin

  62. M Mommy to 4 says

    My living room needs a makeover so bad! We’ve lived here almost four years now and it’s still builder white. Keep in mind, it was built almost 10 years BEFORE we moved in! Time for paint!

  63. Nicole Anglum says

    I desperately need to renovate both bathrooms in my house! I have been pestering my hubby about it since reading your 1949 Bathroom Renovation in December 2010. Our home was built in 1948 and everything in the bathrooms is original! Very similar layout and decor as yours, with horrid peach, grey, and burgandy tiles and old drippy, crusty plumbing fixtures. We have lived in our home 7 years now and my dream has been put on hold with having 2 beautiful children in July 2010 and March 2012. It’s time…bring on the sledge hammer!

  65. Lynn says

    Ooooh that’s a toughy…but I think the ‘dining room/office’ is in the most need. Just LOOKING at the fabulous companies you have giveaways from is getting the creativity (and HOPE) going! Thank you for the opportunity. GREAT BLOG!!!!

  66. Kami Anderson says

    I would LOVE to do my Kitchen. My house was built in 1969…I have done some little improvements but an updated kitchen is something I have dreamed of. What a dream come true that would be! 🙂

  67. Anonymous says

    Hi Kim,
    What a wonderful giveaway!! I would love to re-do our familyroom. It is so outdated and desperately needs it. Andrea in WA

  70. Anonymous says

    I would love to do my dining area! It opens to a fireplace and we need to desperately do something!

    Megan S in PA

  73. JennyNiemann says

    I would love to do my master bedroom. We’ve been slowly working on our house but our bedroom has been neglected. This giveaway would work miracles in our home!

  75. Stephanie Ruby Feldman says

    Having just moved into our 1940 ranch style cottage, that is a blank slate and needs help, it is hard to decide on one area…. so I think I would concentrate on making my bedroom a dream spot, a retreat so at the end of a long day of reno I can just relax and breathe.

  76. Laura in IL says

    My kitchen is in the most need of some love and attention! It has paneling on the walls, for pete’s sake!

  78. Anonymous says

    I would utilize this in several places throughout my house! With two kids in college this would be most appreciated!

  83. Lindsey says

    Any room in our house could use this makeover. I can’t even pinpoint just one room I would focus on. I would probably use the package in several different areas.

  86. Cinderella says

    Well, I’m in need of an ugly brown sofa makeover…SO, the family room it is! Also, thinking my pan ceiling in the Master Bedroom would be fabulous with a little paint and stencil action!! YAY

  90. Anonymous says

    I would make over my home office, because the room is so cluttered right now it’s difficult to work. It is desperately in need of some extra storage and sprucing up on the walls to make it a more creative and productive space.

  91. Anonymous says

    after 40 years of marriage I have never had that dream bedroom I have always wanted so I would use it for that. An oasis to go to at the end of the day, maybe even new furniture, which we have never had in our bedrrom.
    Pam

  93. Candi Rittenberg says

    This is awesome! I would do either my fireplace room….aka living room or any of my three bathrooms that are in dire need of updating! I have just found your site thanks to the naptime decorator! I love your blog and have tons of ideas!

  94. Nicole G Zero says

    I live in a small 1 bedroom apartment so it would be tough to pick just one room. Although the bedroom and kitchen are top contenders, I think I’d have to pick the living room because I use that room for so much (playroom, sewing room, etc.). Thx for the chance at an awesome giveaway!

    nicoleg0 at hotmail

  98. Mad Matter says

    We’d love to have the bathrooms redone so I can stop kicking the shower with my bad leg when I get in the tub and stop worrying about the ceiling caving in where it appears the to be “sinking” but probably is not, or the living room that is closed off from the kitchen making boxy little rooms. Thank you.

  100. Katie says

    I think I would redo a little bit of each room in our house. We just moved in a few months ago and this place is a serious blank slate.

  101. Kiana says

    I would definately focus on the big room… which is decorated a-la-childrens-toys right now, and in need of some “lived-in” sophistication, rather than the random piles I refer to as srt pieces… LOL!

  103. Anonymous says

    I would definitely redo my living room and start by getting rid of the PURPLE tiles around my fireplace!…..ugh!….Denise (Dee Dee)

  115. N. Mangan says

    I have an open concept living/dining/kitchen area that our family mostly congregates. Would be wonderful if I could get the areas to have a cohesive yet distinctive look!

  120. ShaDarMar says

    We have an open concept home, so it’d be the living room/dining room/kitchen. We’re so in need of design with “flow” from room to room.

  121. Anonymous says

    WE just moved into a new house and I working on my family room since it is where we spend the majority of our time. This would be SO AWESOME to win!

  122. Anonymous says

    I’ve been wanting to redo our master bathroom for a LONG time….plus spruce up the adjoining master bedroom.

  123. deanna says

    I would definitely do my living room!!!! The 80’s cheap wood, glass and brass built in corner tv thing HAS to go! It’s so bad the previous homeowners left their tv because it is hard wired into the surround sound and is too much of a hassle to change. Small tv + big room = a need to change!! We also have bad windows in the living room, and it’s so cold! Last night’s 30 something below zero temperatures and 50 below zero wind chills proved that! But hey, it almost got above zero today!

  124. Anonymous says

    After fire destroyed our house in 2004, everything we have are hand me downs. I would love to redo our living room in my own style. I am very grateful for what I do have, don’t get me wrong. I would just love to be able to say this is who I am!

  125. Brittany Helen says

    I just moved to a new home and it is in desperate need of decorating! I’d love to make over our bedroom with paint, wall art, a rug, and a DIY headboard I’ve been wanting to make for a while. I would also use anything left over to help us update our dining room area. We have been planning this update for a while and just have not had the funds. Crossing my fingers!! Thanks for this opportunity!

  128. Anonymous says

    Since we live in an apartment, we need to invest in things that can moooove with us. But we need lots of stylish storage for the living room – the media area is out of control!!!

  130. Heidi @ Decor & More says

    Holy COW, Kim!! What an AMAZING GIVEAWAY! I would have to say my Master Bath — it always falls to the bottom of the list because it requires too much money and no one sees it but us. Crazy right?
    Fingers crossed!
    xo Heidi
    PS– Thanks for hosting!

    My apartment is so small I could makeover two rooms! I would spruce up my kitchen and dining room! And that would be great because not only are they small, they are pretty ugly.

  144. Anonymous says

    I’d love to makeover my living room. It hasn’t had love since we moved in a decade ago.

  145. Toby Duff says

    What an awesome giveaway! I would redo what we loosey call our office, but is really a catch all for everything that doesn’t have a place. It needs to be done as a bedroom for one of my 3 1/2 year old twins. Right now they share a room but the time is coming for them to each have their own and this would be the perfect thing to make that happen!

  151. Ti Bo says

    We had to halt working on our house, so now I guess I would start on the bathroom/laundry room.
    thanks for the chance!

  152. Shannon says

    Easy…Feb. of last year every room in the house but the bedrooms flooded. After almost a year of living in a war/construction zone we have a gorgeous..half a house. So now our Master Bedroom needs some serious love and attention. Great Giveaway.

  153. Allison K. says

    I am not sure which room. Since I am starting to like cooking so much I would probably update and do some DIY to my kitchen. The master BR really needs some TLC though.

  154. SalBug says

    My living room. It’s okay, but a bit drab and boring. I need to spice it up – give it some punch. How fun it would be to win this!

  155. Lynn says

    I “LIKED” all of the FB pages and started following all the Pinterest pages too! I would love to make over my awkward living room! Hope I win!!

  157. Sandy #1781 says

    The only room in our house that is somewhat finished is the bedroom and I would love to have the living room greet me with the fun and warmth I see in these prize packages. Awesome combinations! Thank you.

  161. Cindy says

    I would makeover my bedroom. Many thanks you and your lovely sponsors for offering such a generous giveaway.

  166. Chris Nickel says

    We have plans to finish a room on our second floor which is large but never properly finished (it has been serving as junk storage at this point). When we moved in it had awful drop ceilings (now removed), nasty 1960s fake wood paneling (partially removed), and gold 1960s vinyl flooring (still needs to be removed).
    This room will become our master bedroom and I have been waiting forever to work on it.
    Winning one of the two prizes above would be such a help in getting this room finished. I particularly like prize #2. 🙂

  168. Peggy Davis Morris says

    We are remodeling our basement area into a craft room for me and adding a bathroom. There is SO much to DO! Paint, fixtures, flooring – the list is almost endless! Could really benefit from winning!

    I would have to split it between the carriage house and our bedroom. Well may be a couple of things for the 3rd floor. Oh my so many projects that need done. Thanks so much!

    My master bedroom needs some love. All the other rooms look great but I haven’t done anything to the master since I moved in 5.5 years ago!

  179. jjmitchell94 says

    I’d loooooove to do some things with my dining room! SO much! It’s looking like a ghetto in the hood, let me tell you! Here’s hoping! And thank you! 🙂

  182. Alice Meldrum says

    Since August 2011. 9 souls happily living in four generation home. We need to work on bringing it all together. Kitchen and bathroom need the love. My daughter has wonderful style and my mom was an interior decorator before memory loss. It skipped a generation on me. But they would be blessed to have resources to move forward.

  184. Lisa says

    Oh my goodness what I could do with this prize! I desperately want to makeover our kitchen, put on new storm doors, and paint the exterior of the house!!!

  186. Lynnelise says

    Where to begin……!
    Just moved into new apartment. I need a new bedroom, and so will my mom when she comes to live with me in a couple of months.
    So happy to have “stumbled” upon this wonderful blog!!

    I need to work on my dining/livingroom combo. It is an old ranch style house I am trying to update and make more modern and simple.

  207. Debbie says

    Most of the house could certainly use some lovin’, but the kitchen with pink countertops has to go!

  213. Christine T says

    Wow!! What an amazing giveaway! I feel like my whole house is in need of a makeover, LOL, but would probably start with my family room and master bedroom. 🙂

  217. Emily Davis says

    We are moving and I would love to makeover the family room to be both kid and adult friendly. It is the heart of the house!

  221. Alison says

    I would treat myself to making over my master bedroom. It’s the room that never gets the attention, so treating my husband to a spruced up bedroom would be a great surprise!

  223. angela says

    The first room that came to mind is my covered porch. Whiile it may not technically be considered a room when the weather starts to get nice that is where we love to spend most of our time. 🙂

    I am a new fan. I have just read some of your archives and love your ideas – especially the painted drapes. I can’t wait to try this! Anyway, I believe I need help in the Master Bedroom the most (although all of the rooms need help). Of courses like most of us I am on a budget so I could really use the help and advice.

    Here’s hoping,
