Home Improvement Giveaway: Free Consultation and Upgrade Tips

*** This contest is no longer accepting entries – see who won below! ***

Random.org drew the winner and selected… Tracey @ Tropical Happiness (she just moved into a new house last week and has plenty of shopping ahead). Congratulations, Tracey! If you didn’t win this time, don’t worry — you can still enter Hometalk’s $500 Lowe’s gift card giveaway through Sunday.

Hometalk is a vibrant community of home improvement enthusiasts, professionals, and fellow DIYers who share projects, advice, and contractor referrals. For this giveaway they partnered to offer a generous $500 gift card to Crate & Barrel, giving one lucky reader an excellent opportunity to refresh a room or finally purchase that statement piece they’ve been eyeing.

In addition to the Crate & Barrel prize, Hometalk was also running a separate giveaway for a $500 Lowe’s gift card on their site. That entry required answering a short poll about outdoor summer projects, creating a free account, and submitting your entry. If you wanted to try for both prizes you could, but it wasn’t required — entering here by commenting on this post was enough to be eligible for the Crate & Barrel card.
