Speaking of bar stools, several of you have commented on mine when they have been photographed in other posts. I bought them new when we built Blue Creek Home 6 years ago. I fell in love with their French style immediately. They were originally cherry, but I didn’t like the way they disappeared against the cherry bead board on the bar cabinet. The colors were an exact match – and I don’t like the match game! I took a chance and did a distressed finish on them using a black gesso product. I loved the way they turned out. I think they look great with the Uba Tuba granite counter tops.
This is where you will find me when I am blogging!

Give Away From CSN Stores!
Okay, on to the give-away. CSN contacted me about hosting a give-away. Of course I said yes!I have selected three great gifts for one lucky winner to choose from.
CHOOSE THIS:

#1. I love this set of garden baskets! The large one measures: 12" H x 13" W x 6" D. The smaller one measures: 10" H x 11" W x 5" D. Made of tin with wrought iron construction, they have a distressed green finish.
* These could be used to hold your garden tools. I would use three - 1 qt. canning jars filled with fresh cut flowers in one of them!

#2. This filigree basket is made of iron. I love the shape and the intricate scrollwork.
It measures: 19.25" H x 17.5" W x 10.75" D.
* I would put moss balls and bird’s nests in it!
OR CHOOSE THIS:

# 3. Set of two wire baskets. The medium one measures: 12" H x 18" W x 12.75" D.
The small one measures: 11.25" H x 9.75" W x 10" D. They are made of red wire with
wrought iron construction.
* The small one make a great fruit basket and the larger one would be good for magazines.
Here are the rules for this give-away
1. Since this post is about my favorite blogging bar stool, I thought it would be fun for you to visit CSN’s store @ allbarstools.com and leave a comment on this post telling me which one is your favorite. They have hundreds of styles and great prices.
2. Followers of “Blue Creek Home” will get a second entry – be sure to let me know.
3. Blog about the give-away or add it on your side bar, with a link back to this post, and get a third entry.
4. Grab my “Blue Creek Home” blog button for a fourth entry.
5. Grab my “Blue Creek Home, The Shop” Etsy button for a fifth entry.
This giveaway is open to US and Canada and will end on March 31st at midnight. Feel free to leave your entries in separate comments or all together. Please include your e-mail address if you don’t have a link. I will add up all the entries and use random.org to select the winner. The item will be sent directly from CSN to the winner.
Good luck!
Rhonda

Hi Rhonda! CSN has great giveaway items, but I would have to choose the third option if I won. Those baskets are just perfect! I recommended allbarstools.com to my neighbours who are building a new home with a large island. If I were to choose new barstools I would pick International Concepts 30" Windsor Spindleback Swivel Barstool.

ReplyDeleteOf course, I am already a follower.
ReplyDeleteHi Rhonda,
ReplyDeleteI like Boraam Palmetto 29" Bar Stool in Walnut - 47129 best. We have a summer kitchen that is a separate building from our main house. Thomas is turning it into a private pub. I found a beautiful mahogany bar circa 1880 (same as our home) from a pub in Manhattan that was being closed. I purchased it and for ours. These stools would look great in there.
Thank you for including me in your generous giveaway.
Deborah
That's such a hard decision, even when I'm not purchasing! I like the Amisco Brittany 26" Swivel Counter Stool with Memory Return - 41405-26SKU #: AMC1053 because it's got the memory return...what a pain to try to get all the stools even again after everyone sits there, especially if the stool is heavy!

Hey Rhonda. Am I too late? I could have swore I entered this the other night but I think I got pulled away from the computer before I could actually get my comment in. I bet I spent 40 minutes looking at all the wonderful stools that night but honestly I can't tell you which one I would chose. And there's so many!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting a lovely giveaway. Hugs...Trayc :)
I'm also a faithful follower Rhonda.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day...Tracy :)
