One Light, Four Ways Giveaway!

Hello, and thanks for coming back to see my custom 

Rejuvenation light fixture

. In case you missed it, there are four of us

designing our own light fixture

s

. Here is my custom light.

It is lit with

this LED bulb

. That means the kids can forget to turn it off, and I won't get mad. #teenagers

Remember how the space started.

You can read about my

pillow puzzle here

 and you can find my

rug and Kantha quilt sources here

.

For the fixture, I chose the large

Merchant shade in unlacquered brass

. That way, she can age gracefully...wish I could say the same for moi.

I wrapped the cord with a nautical twisted rope. I bought it at a boating store, but I am sure you can find this stuff at a big hardware store. 

The tutorial for this toggle

can be found here

.

The view from my entry feels connected.

The pretty flower shot.

And now for the GIVEAWAY!!

You can use it for anything Rejuvenation sells. I am sure my savvy readers checked out the site last week.....and even practiced

custom designing a fixture

of your own. I am guessing you know how you would use this if you win?

If it were me, I would definitely consider

these brass locks

for my windows.

My husband would love a pair of

these hooks

in his closet.

Or a couple of

wire baskets

so the kids could throw their shoes in it.

One Light, Four Ways

About a month ago, I was contacted by Rejuvenation. They wanted to know if I would be interested in putting a group of bloggers together for a fun project. The project was for each of us to take one of their light fixtures and custom design it to fit into our homes. Pretty cool, right?
If you are not familiar with Rejuvenation, they are part of the Williams-Sonoma family. Yup, it just keeps getting better! Forming the group was fun, but the real fun was designing the light.
Here is the space in my home I am working with. This is my living room and it is open to other rooms in my home.

This room is really boring, and the vintage gilt fixture needs to be relocated to my guest room.
I love this light, it was my grandmother's.

It's just not right for this space. You can see it from my entry.

First, I'll give you a quick tutorial on custom designing a light, and then I'll tell you my plan.
I need to warn you, this is so fun, and addicting....you may want to get a cup of coffee and a snack before you start....or wine and cheese .

Start on the Rejuvenation lighting page and then select the category that fits your need. We are all designing plug-in fixtures. In fact, I can tell you that we are all using the Baltimore Plug-In light for our custom designs.
There are three ways to custom design your light. 1.The finish. 2. The shade (see all) will give you the full selection. 3. The cord.

Here is where the numbers are on the fixture.

For the Baltimore there are (13) finishes, (38) shades, and (5) cord options. If I did my Algebra correctly, the possible combinations look like this
13 x 38 x 5 = 2,470 fixtures
Now for my plan. Let's face it, this room could use some "freshening up".  I am so over this sectional. 

Since I can't replace it at the moment, new pillows are in order. I am also tired of the wall color. The rooms that open to this one are both White Dove, so new paint is also on the list. In fact, by the time you read this the painter should be here. Of course I didn't bother to tell my husband. Does he need to know? Like I always say, what's he going to do.....break up with me?
As for the light, I'm thinking clean, shiny, vintage, modern. I fell in love with this line, but the dimensions are  too small for this space.

Did I also mention that I would eventually like to relocate it to my son's room? That's the beauty of a plug-in...totally transportable. I think this shape would fit all my needs better.

I'll be working on this space all week. If you follow me on Instagram, you may get a sneaky peaky.
Next Monday, I will show you my design. You may want to take a moment and
Like Rejuvenation on Facebook (hint) Follow Rejuvenation on Pinterest (hint, hint) Follow Rejuvenation on Twitter (OK, there's going to be a giveaway)
Actually, there are four giveaways coming up! If you want to be prepared, go see what you would buy if you had a gift certificate. #ILoveAGiveaway
Now let's go see what spaces the others are working with.
