Hey hey hey!
I have had a slew of emails regarding the Epic Makeover Giveaway and I just wanted to clear it up!
1. What if I don’t have any furniture to makeover?
NO BIGGIE! Because of my awesome sponsors I have between $1,000-$1,500 to spend on YOUR room! (depending on where you live and how much my flights are)
If you have really bad couches guess what? Its not a problem! Do you know what I can do with that kind of mulah? My entire living room cost me less than $600.00. Chew on that for a while.
2. How much input will I have?
A ton! When I said you had to go along with everything I say I was totally joking people. Its YOUR house! You are the one that has to live there!!
3. My husband likes really plain designs. Can I still enter?
Um……Yes! I can totally persuade him to paint your walls magenta with my charm and good looks. Again, just kidding. But you should still enter.
4. I wont be able to do it in June, can you come at a different time?
Any time this summer peeps.
5. I live in Alaska, is that alright?
No, you need to live in the continental us (48 states)
6. How much work will we actually be doing?
A crapload. Seriously a lot but it will be really fun!
7. Are you coming alone?
No!! My sis Amy is coming with me. She is the funniest person on this planet and you will LOVE her!
8. I live in the same city as you. Can I still enter?
Refer to question #1. The less my travel is the more money I have to spend on YOU! I don’t care if you are my next door neighbor. And you have to remember that I am a hoarder so I have a crapload of awesome junk in my garage with no home. If you are smart and live in St. George you will enter.
9. My house isn’t THAT bad. I feel like there are other people who need it more.
That is so nice of you! But guess what? Even if its not that bad who doesn’t want it to be even better? And hang out with me for a week? Pssh that’s what I thought.
10. It takes a long time to write the post and link up. I am feeling lazy and don’t think that I will enter. (Yes, I have received this comment)
That’s fine. The reason I ran the giveaway like this is because I am devoting a substantial amount of time to whoever wins. If you cant take 20 minutes to blog it then you aren’t serious about winning. Which is no big deal! I still love you and guaranteed next time you will feel a little more motivated.
11. What if our style is a bit different from yours? Would it be a collaboration, or like a designer coming in?
It will totally be a collaboration. I want you in a space that you will LOVE.
12. I don’t know how to put your picture about the contest in my post!!
There is a HTML code underneath the picture in a small scroll box. Just copy that code and paste it in your post!
13. I would love to be able to enter but I don’t have a blog. Ok yes I do I tried and then Heavenly Father help me I can’t get back into it. So I guess first I need to learn how to blog before I get a makeover. 🙂
You can email me your post and pictures to [email protected] and I will link it up for you!
If you have any more questions please leave them in the comments and I will add them to this post with the answer!!
Also if you are procrastinating entering you are missing out on a TON of traffic to your blog. Just sayin’.
Thanks once again to the best sponsors in the world!!
oh, I’m entering – I was going to pick up my room before pictures, but maybe I should go with the “as-is” look for more pity…..
This makes me even more sad that I live in Canada. When you run the second annual “Yo Yo…” can you please include me? Hahah I am so jealous of your winner already. Tell ppl to stop wining and play by the rules!
What the junk? Who in their right mind would pass up the opportunity to have YOU come to their house and turn it into something awesome?? At least that’s one less entry for me to compete with, but still. I am a hoarder too, and I have access to tools! Pick me!!
I wish I wasn’t moving this summer! I would so go for this! But I have no idea if we’ll be able to paint in our next house or anything. I’m so excited to learn where you’ll be going though and who you’ll be helping!
haa haa i’m still laughing at that last comment. I can’t believe someone would actually write that! haa ha
Their loss!
Question- Have you ever redecorated/painted gross plywood furniture. My hubby went and picked this stuff out and it’s falling apart but being a military family we cant afford to by all new pieces, even previously own pieces. Any suggestions or ideas?
I LOVE you!! 🙂
Seriously, you are amazing. I’m doing your tinfoil nightstand technique right now – only on other things. Anyway, that hooked me to your blog (which I just discovered).
I’ll be entering your contest today or tomorrow. Just contemplating that I might be moving, so should I or shouldn’t I enter? Then again, if I’m lucky enough to move out of Inbredville, North Dakota, I’m sure the new house will need a room makeover. Would that be allowed? (If I move and it’s in a new house…should I be so lucky to win)?
Cheers,
Tracy All Thumbs Crafts
I’ll just send you the jpegs of my room, and if you could just write up the post and add the photos for me and then email the html code of the finished post back to me, I’ll totally enter.
Kthanks
(For reals? People are too tired to write up a post for this?! Perhaps Crazytown isn’t in the continental US and it won’t be an issue.)
love the last question… and answer.
Hi:
I would love to be able to enter but I don’t have a blog. Ok yes I do I tried and then Heavenly Father help me I can’t get back into it. So I guess first I need to learn how to blog before I get a makeover. 🙂

whoa!! k so i just updated on your blog… your amazingly awesome to think of such a fun giveaway!! since we are related am i out of the running to win?! lol. i have all the stuff to do your tea cup lamps, i hope it doesn’t take me winning to actually get them done. actually my mom and i want to do them together, but it seems like whenever we get together we’d rather veg on the couch and eat peanut butter m&m’s. that’s a problem!!
keep up the awesome blog and send some sun up this way to idaho… pretty please!!
Haha! Question #9 has seriously been playing through my head! Thanks for posting that! I will enter today! And who doesn’t like more blog traffic?! Thanks for doing this!
I am thinking of entering, but the room I want to do is my laundry… is that okay to do a small room?
I answered my own question by entering anyway. 🙂
Awwe…what a shame you won’t come to Australia!! Love your stuff!

Dear Mandi, I have been having dreams of you coming and making my garage into the awesome, creative, livable playspace I know it was meant to be. So I’ve got my pictures and my write up almost ready and then I panicked. My blog is private and I know you said to email you and you’d post- so do you want me to send my pics and write up in a word document or paste it into email form or get my tush in gear and open another blog for this contest and the ensuing projects that will be posted? What’s easiest for you? Do I get a prize for a super long sentence? Thanks!
can your friends only vote once? How does the voting work? Do we just give them the link to the page with all of our links?
