What’s black and white plus FREE?
I have always loved what a dose of black and white can do to a room…
Even the smallest dose can make quite the impact and turn up the glam in a room…
Stripes tend to be one of my favorite ways to add a dose of black and white into a room. They just look so fresh and new yet classic!
Luckily for you all I’m not the only one that thinks everyone should have a touch of black and white in their home.

The kind folks over at Bedroom Furniture emailed me to let me know about their store. They carry everything from Platform beds, headboards and even mattresses.They were even sweet enough to let me pick out a give-away item for my readers.
The site had a lot to choose from, but of course the one item I found had to be over my budget. So I just sweetly asked if pretty please I could have it and they said YES!
So here is what I picked:
Skyline Furniture- Storage Bench, which retails for $158.99!
You all know how I love to just hide things instead of all the messy cleaning. This little bench can help you do just that plus it will look great at the end of your bed, near your entry way or simply as a perch for your little furry friends to get a better look out the window.
I also love different choices so this bench comes in a variety of fabrics that you can pick from in addition to the black and white houndstooth featured above.
I also know that not everyone enjoys black and white so you also have the option of picking from:
Or if you are feeling really adventurous you can pick the Velvet Leopard or as I like to call it Steven Tyler PJ’s. (I’ll let you comment twice if you know what movie that line is from!)
Here is what you have to do to enter the giveaway:
1. Since it’s a special give-away for my readers make sure you are a follower and/or subscribe to this blog.
2. Leave a comment and let me know what fabric you would pick and where it would go.
3. Don’t forget to leave your email address in the comment so that I can get in touch with you if you win!
4. If you decide to take a guess and let me know what movie the line, “Steven Tyler PJ’s” is from please email me (cpavone0107@gmail.com) your guess. If you’re right I’ll let you know and you can then go back an make an additional comment.
This give-away will end on Sunday, June 28th by midnight EST. I will pick a winner Monday with the help of Random.org.
***If you would like to spread the word about this give-away on your blog that would be great! If you do so email me and let me know and you can enter to win twice! ***
Remember anyone can comment. You don’t need to have a blog to do so!
GOOD LUCK!

ON THE BLOG
My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
I LOVE THE giveaway! That really is a great little bench. I would either it in my living room with the black and white damask print, or in my bedroom (which is currently black and white) in the houndstooth fabrci! YAY
Oh my gosh! I can think of 4 places to put these bench!

I know the movie…so yay…a second comment 😉
I like the Paddock Shawl Porcelain, and I think I'd put the bench in the guest bedroom–there aren't many flat surfaces in there.
Cute bench! I'd do the Paddock Shawl Onyx and use it in my upstairs hallway.
I love this bench! I would pick the florenza and use it in our living room to store my little boy's toys!!!!
what an awesome giveaway!! Love the bench…my home needs it!!
This giveaway is fabulous. I would use the bench in the living room or the foot of my bed. I'd choose the houndstooth patter.

I love those first few photos of the interiors with the striped pillows- how lovely! I really love the color combinations and the way it all ties in just right… so gorgeous!
Thanks for letting us know about this giveaway. Sadly, I won't be entering because right now, I would have nowhere to put it nor store it! Darn. 🙁
What a gorgeous bench! We are looking at buying our first house, and I will need furniture to fill it so I would love to win. I think I like the tradition black and white best. Thanks for the fantastic giveaway.

My first thought was the b&w houndstooth under a lucite console in my entryway….but (call me crazy) I think I'd actually pick the Leopard Print and put at the end of my guest bed to amp up the drama with my new DIY electric blue velvet tufted headboard.
Either way – great giveaway & I love your blog 🙂
Woohoo, I got the movie quote! So comment #2!
So cute! I'd pick the Diderol Brown damask print to go in our basement as extra seating + storage!

capowcapow [at] gmail.com
Fun Giveaway. I like the Diderot Black pattern. I think I'd find a way to fit it by the living room window so that Jack can use it to look out or by my bedroom window. Either way extra storage is a win!

hirondellerustique(at)gmail(dot)com
What a wonderful giveaway!! The diderot brown would look fantastic in my library to hold some throws for when it gets chilly here in NY! Or perhaps traditional black & white in my step-daughters new bedroom that we're building this summer. Your blog is FABULOUS! I'll be a frequent visitor….

Such a fabulous bench, I would love it in houndstooth and put it in our office under a window, for a bit of storage and a place for the dogs to watch over their yard.
OMG, this is so cute. I would definitely put this in our guest bedroom. We're giong through a redo right now. I think I would have to choose, traditional b & w.

Love the bench, and even though I love black and white, I would prob pick the Diderot Brown because it fits better with my current decor. Not sure where I would end up putting it, but on the top of the list would be the guest room or the great room!
I've wanted a storage bench just like this forever!!!! We are saving our money right now for other things so haven't been able to buy one 🙁 I'd put the diderot brown underneath the window in my entryway to replace this little chest I have… I could really use storage in my tiny house. Thanks for coming to the nest to post your lovely blog!

I love the bench. I would go with Paddock Shawl Onyx and use it at the foot of my bed.

Oh my the possible places in my house are many! I can't even decide. there is the bedroom or hallway or foyer. I love it though!
Wow! Popular little contest, huh? I would choose the Black and White Florenza… it would look amazing in my living room and I was just thinking the other day that I need one other piece in that room!
I have the perfect place for that bench, but can't decide…..Paddock Shawl Black or Blue….both would work!
This is my second comment. Thanks again!

This giveaway is so exciting. I love your style and wish you all the luck in the world to making your dreams come true. I would go with the florenza black and use it in my living room. I use red and lime accents and think that this would be such an amazing focal piece.
angiempaglino@gmail.com
i really like the black and white houndstooth. What a perfect solution to all those baby toys I have lying around!

Ooops forgot my email address..still going with the Diderot black!
shannonk19(at)yahoo(dot)com
Thank you so much for this post. This bench would look amazing in our master bedroom. The Florenza in black and white would be perfect, just like you I agree that every room needs some black and white.
This is great! I'd put the Florenza B&W in my guest bedroom.
Florenza B&W! LOVE IT! smhinckley(at)yahoo(dot)com
I think the diderot brown would look fantastic in my livingroom. It would be a nice little booster for the kitties to look out the windows and terrorize the birds from that room of the house as well.
🙂
The florenza black and white is so shiek! I would put it in my bedroom for sure!
ps- I tagged you in a fun game today!
Meow, meow…my kitties said that this would look beautiful in the living room to help them stock the neighborhood birds. They think diderot brown would looks wonderful there.
oops I forgot to tell you the pattern. I think the Florenza black and white would look good used as a coffee table in my living room. 🙂

How ironic that you stop by my blog on a black and white love post and are having a black and white give away! Like it is meant to be 😉 😉 I LOVE the bench and would use the classic black and white fabric and place that lovely bench at the foot of my bed.. my room is an eggplant color and I have black and white bedding and decor.. it would be beyond perfect!

Love the bench. I think I would stay with the hounds check. I am also a lover of black and white and plan to do a post eventually about the huge amounts of it I have around the house….interesting since my blog is called Becolorful. I guess I love the sophistication and grounding black and white can give to the bold colors I love.
Pam Rosenberg
We're going to put it in our whittling wood room in the barn next to our T top I-Roc-z.
Reminder, I like the Paddock Shawl Porcelain, please.

Thanks for the chance! 🙂
bonomoday@gmail.com
Such a generous giveaway! Ok…I'm totally obsessed with anything damask so that's definitely the fabric I would choose. I'm in the process of updating my master bedroom look – so I might use this for inspiration and place it at the foot of my bed. Good luck to me!
