Design Hole Contest: and the Domino decorating book goes to….

First, I’d like to thank everyone who entered for sharing their decorating ideas with the rest of us. There were some useful tips in there, which clearly indicates that there is an interior designer in all of us.

And now, without further ado, the grand prize winner of the Domino book, plus a Design Hole tee shirt is…

Elisa!

Elisa is a Brit living in Canada. She writes a blog called Fortune Cookie Monster. Elisa’s decorating tip is to cover your ugly brick fireplace with metal. Elisa, send me a photo!

The runners up, and winners of Design Hole tee shirts are….

Vitania, Jennifer C., and Lisa

Vitania follows the “rule of two”. Use at least two of the major colors in your room to create balance. Her blog, Verdigris, is all about style. Jennifer C. likes to repurpose things and especially likes her huge glass jars filled with wine corks. Lisa loves to decorate with plants and has at least one in every room of her home.

Congratulations to the winners. I’ll email you today for your addresses and have your prizes in the mail and on their way. Yay!

Don’t stop thinking about your favorite ways to decorate. Send me photos of your favorite rooms and favorite projects. Before and afters are especially welcome.

One thing I’ve learned is that everyone has style if they take the time to look for it.
