anniversary countdown giveaway

two sundays ago, 20 june 2009, Mem sent us an sms congratulating us for exactly one year that day, we received news of my approved visa to ireland. i have already forgotten about the date myself, thanks to the sharp memory of my septuagenarian MIL, kj and i were able to celebrate that night with a bottle of wine. we just had a glass each actually, anything more than that sends me off to dream land right away. right away means 10 seconds after my last sip. seriously.

i arrived in dublin on 11 july last year. to celebrate my 1st year anniversary here, i'm holding a countdown giveaway starting now until the few weeks leading to 11 july.

this week's giveaway is generously sponsored by Bedroom Furniture, and is only valid to US residents/addresses. to non-US residents, don't be so disappointed yet, as there's something for you too at the end of the week, so do watch out for that.

i must have said it here many times how home furnishing shops can make my knees go weaker. bedroom furniture just did that to me. they have so many beautiful things to be had, from mattresses, to headboards, to accent furniture, to complete bedroom sets. check these modern beds, they're so worth a peep. searching through the website is very easy too, you can narrow down your search options according to price, design, brand and color among others. it also boasts of carrying eco-friendly furniture, and free shipping within the US. for payment, they accept major credit cards, and even paypal!

when we moved in the new house, kj's first question to me was, "how was the bed?" my husband's ultimate luxury in life is having a good sleep every night. aside from having a good wife, that is me. of course.

anyways. Platform Beds are a sure winner when it comes to comfort and style and practicality. Bedroom Furniture has so many designs and styles to suit your taste and preferences. whether you like minimalism or modern chic, there are hundreds of choices to pick from. i spent over an hour browsing through the website, and daydreaming all the way. the bedroom sets were all beautifully presented and gave me a big dose of creative inspiration.

so, in celebration of my new home and my 1st year in ireland, i am giving away a little something for your home, hosted by Bedroom Furniture. the winner can pick any of the following:

• Lite Source - One Light Banker's Lamp in Dark Bronze with Frosted Glass

~because i was a banker in my past life

• Windsor Vanguard - Jour Du Marche II Canvas

~because i love bicycles

if you are a US resident, you are qualified to join in the giveaway. leave a comment under this post, answering this question: which part of your home is your favorite and why?

comments will be closed on midnight of Friday, 3 July 2009 GMT Dublin, and winner will be drawn through random.org.
