CLOSED - ABSTRACT ART GIVEAWAY

Nothing makes a home like a perfect piece of art. That's why I'm thrilled to share the work of artist Marquin Campbell with you today!

Marquin is a fellow graduate of University of Georgia where she studied painting and drawing. She later studied Fashion Design at Parsons, and studied in both Cuba and Italy. Having worked for Ralph Lauren, John Bartlett, Christian Lacroix, Tory Burch, and Rad Horani, well, Marquin knows her stuff.

Needless to say, when she contacted me about giving away one of her gorgeous abstract pieces on Seventeenth & Irving, I couldn't say no. Just have a look at her work!

But here's the best part! One of you is going to win Charleston II, a 12" x 12" piece with shades of turquoise green, electric blue, salmon and grey. The piece has so much texture that I can't even begin to do it justice. You'll just have to enter to win it for yourself!

GIVEAWAY : FURNISH YOUR PLACE WITH FASHION FOR HOME

Boy, do I have a treat for you all today. Have you heard about Fashion For Home? There's a lot of buzz about them in the blogosphere and for good reason! Fashion For Home has incredible designer quality pieces at the "build it yourself" store prices. While they're based in the UK, we luck out by getting free shipping and free returns. 

I am excited to share that Fashion For Home is going to gift one of you with a $190 gift certificate to their site!

Whether you're looking to furnish your first place or add style to your existing pieces, they have a range of styles and price points. I'm particularly fond of their Shipwood Collection - it's got an antique, collected vibe that will elevate the look of the pieces you already own. And if that's not your thing, just check out all of your options.
