True Value Gift Card Giveaway!

 It’s been such a great experience to be a part of the True Value DIY Blog Squad for a second year.  Last year, I was able to paint my kitchen cabinets as one of my big projects…

 

 …and it made a huge difference in my home.   (Wow…it’s hard to remember when my cabinets looked like that!)

 

I also replaced all of the hardware, which completed the look.

 

 

 

We gave the half bath a new look courtesy of True Value as well.  It went from this…

 

…to this…

This year, in addition to getting some projects done around my home (I’m still figuring out what I’m going to do), I get to give away a $100 True Value gift card to one of my readers.  Woohoo!  You can spend that money however you want at your local True Value Hardware store…

 

 

…or on their website.

Here’s how to enter…

Leave a comment on this post letting me know how you  would spend the $100 True Value gift card if you win.  That’s it!

The giveaway is only open to readers over the age of 18 and closes Tuesday, October 16, 2013 at midnight PST.  I’ll announce the winner on Wednesday.

Good luck!

I was one of the bloggers selected by True Value to work on the DIY Squad. I have been compensated for my time commitment to the program as well as my writing about my experience. I have also been compensated for the materials needed for my DIY project. However, my opinions are entirely my own and I have not been paid to publish positive comments.

Stories | the time I was lost in Russia

It’s hard to remember how we functioned before smartphones; before we had a map, a full phone directory, Google Translate, and all the information available by tapping a question into an internet browser in our pocket.  Well, this story happened before that time. I was supposed to meet my friend
