Fab Freebie: Island Style: a house log

We are leaving the mainland and heading for the islands for this week’s freebie giveaway. Well, I guess I do not mean that literally (unfortunately) but we are leaving it up to So’mace Lifestyle, a new design boutique in Honolulu, to bring the Hawaiian experience to all of us.

So’mace Lifestyle is a new gallery & shop spawned from a design service that began in 2004 by former New Yorkers Kaypee Soh and Edward Macey. The new boutique, which has a focus on sustainable and green design, is chock full of strong art for your walls (wallpaper), for your floor (rugs), for your dreams (bedding) and- here is where the prize comes in – for your sofa (pillows).

Kaypee Soh’s line of original pillows (view full collection here and here) is a mix of nature-inspired florals and graphic retro designs, all hand-printed in Washington state and hand-sewn in Hawaii. They feature 100% linen covers with a 20″ x 20″ feather/down and hypoallergenic insert. Plus, with two distinct, coordinated designs on each side, you can give your couch a fresh look simply by flipping the pillow over. And one lucky reader will have the chance to do simply that…

To win your choice of any one of the six pillows shown below, simply comment on this post with the words “ALOHA” by Wednesday, February 18th at 8pm EST. And since Hawaii is such a popular honeymoon spot, we’d also enjoy to hear where you went (or are hoping/planning to go) on your honeymoon. As you likely know, we in fact left the lower 48 and headed the other direction for an Alaskan honeymoon. Not quite as warm, but it managed to be simply as romantic.

So’mace Lifestyle will ship this strong prize anywhere, so do not hold back all you international pillow lovers! We will be picking one winner using random.org and announcing it later in the week as usual. Now, what is Hawaiian for “good luck”?
