Give-away: Olympic Paint!
Since I’m getting to the very close stage of finally being finished with my professional site my weekends have been spent finishing many home projects to finally get my rooms camera ready!
I know I’m not the only one up to my ears in home projects so with the help of my pals over at Olympic Paint that is available at Lowes I will be giving away lots of paint!
To be exact HHFITD will be giving away 2 gallons of your pick of Olympic Paint in any finish.
Now the key to successful painting is in the prep work before and that means priming the walls first! So, part of this give-away is also 1 gallon of Olympic zero VOC primer!
One lucky reader will win all 3 gallons!
Here is what you need to do to enter:
– Make sure you are a HHFITD follower.
– Go onto to Olympic and pick out what paint color you would want.
-Come back here and leave a comment and let me know what your pick is.
– If you want to enter twice then make sure to give this give-away a shout on your blog.
-Want to enter three times then make sure you also tweet about it!
* Remember anyone can enter! Just make sure if you don’t have a blog to add your email address in your comment.
This give-away is open until Sunday, March 7th midnight EST.

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.
Sweet giveaway Camila! I would choose Glazed Pears because 1) it's perfect for my project 2) I'm hungry.
And I blogged about it too!
I love painting but I would actually let me sister in law choose the paint as they close on their first home at the end of the month!
Such a great giveaway! We're in the process of buying our first home so winning this would really benefit us as we have some rooms that need painting! Every little bit helps when you're planning a wedding and buying a house 🙂 I went to the site and played around with it. We like the pretty blue color, B55-2! Would look great in our new bedroom!
I'm already a follower 🙂

This giveaway couldn't have come at a better time! I'm finally ready to paint my bedroom after months of construction. A soft blue-gray would be perfect, something like Pins and Needles or Smokescreen.
I love Olympic paint since it's low in VOCs! I would like the pale blue, Filigree, for my office renovation. 🙂
What a nice giveaway!
I like the quaking grass color, or smokescreen.
I'm also a follower.
So many to choose from! Horseradish or Tightrope look like nice neutral colors.
ohhh, I would LOVE to win!! My husband and I are in the process of buying a new house and there isnt a wall in the house that I dont want to re-paint! So, we could use all of the free paint we can get, and I happen to like Olympic paint!
I'd choose Turquoise Mist, looks like it would be great for a bathroom.
Thanks!
WOW!! I was just thinking how I really want to repaint my kitchen..this would be a great score to help me with that!! I would love the kelly green…fingers crossed

I am in love with Golden Field!
I have a master bedroom to paint (which has been on the "to-do" list for 5 years, 2 bathrooms and 1 laundry room. My home colors are all in the blue/green family with some browns & creams. I'm stuck on the new paint colors though. I've never had this problem but I can't decide. I know it will be something in the blue or green family but I'm also really liking silver/grays. Ugh…I don't know but 3 gallons of something would be amazing! april_dodge@hotmail.com
I would use painted parrot. For my nursery. I think it will pair nicely with yellow and navy.
mayan treasure is a pretty gold!
I am planning to paint my bathroom with Olympic River Reed!
Ooh! I love Blue Silk for my bedroom. It needs some desperate help!
I also follow your blog!
I've been looking for a gray for my bedroom and I love Thin Ice! It's perfect!

Crumb cookie. The only large room in my house is the living/dining area, and it's painted a dark color now. This would open it up greatly.
Tweeted/blog post too.

What a cool contest! I will for sure Tweet you and give you a shout out on my blog Rants and Raves but I still only have ONE choice and that would be "Field Poppy!"
Just bought my very first home at 51 and being an REO it needs everything from the foundation to the roof including plumb,heat,power lol! I can use all the help I can get!

Wow. How awesome and perfect timing. Husband and I are new home-owners and still have sooooooo much more to paint!
Boring I know – but I love Horseradish, and I could definitely use it!
Ooh, great giveaway! I would choose: either aloe essence or grey frost. Both would be perfect for projects I'm working on!
I tweeted it too! 🙂
I would choose Crumb Cookie or Milk Paint. Thanks for the chance to win!
Wonderful Giveaway!
I love BLUE WILLOW for one of my boy's bedrooms.
After a horrific wallpaper removal in the guest bath that revealed unfinished walls (which will be covered up by beadboard), we could use a happy break. I think Twinberry Blossom would be a lush color with the beadboarding!
I'm a follower. This was really easy. I need to pain my bathroom and was already leaning toward Chocolate Eclaire!
Smiles!~

i would paint my bathroom the crashing waves color and my bedroom the shortbread color and use the browns and blues in both rooms. gosh i would LOVE to paint my room!
I really like the Lime Green B68-4. I'd use it for the playroom. Great giveaway!
Sweet giveaway – I'd love to win. I'd choose either Knight's Armour, Midnight Hour or Black Magic.

I love the Jack Frost color. It is so pretty. I think it would be great in my downstairs bath!
froggirl.becki@gmail.com
I already foloow your blog.
We have a couple pf projects going on – I think Knight's Armor would work for a bedroom (bigger project) or Teaberry Blossom for the laundry room/closet. (Yes, it really is that small.)
This is great – I need to redo my entryway sometime soon.. I think a creamy Alaskan Mist would be a nice transition to my lime green living area.. I'm a follower too!
I love the Moss Point Green!
I'd choose either a pale blue or pale yellow for our bedroom. Just the lift that we need to finish it off!
This is the best giveaway and just the right time too- I am re-painting my dressers in the bedroom and could totally use this! I think I would have to go with Victory Blue, Black Magic or Fisherman's Net.
This is the day for giveaways too- go check out mine 🙂

I'm looking for a cream/antique white color-much like "parchment paper"
Thanks!
I am thinking of painting my boring white bedroom ceiling pale blue. Hard to say from the computer screen, but Bashful, Twilight and Camelot all seem to be close to what I had in mind!
I like smokscreen a lot, but I'd have to look at a swatch before making a final decision. We have two rooms, maybe three on our paint to-do list.
would love Black for our front door and shutters that we plan to paint this Spring! Love how Olympic's site can color match any color you find online! So cool!
The site wasn't working for me, but I would choose a light gray with a hint of blue. I'm so addicted to that color.

Fun giveaway and timely because I'm repainting every room in my home. My office/studio is next and I want to paint that one white so it can be a blank canvas background for all of my inspiration boards and projects. The color I chose is delicate white. Thanks for hosting this contest.

Oooh I would love to win this paint! I would pick "Winter's Day" because it is elegant and the perfect color for our bathroom 🙂
I would choose Glimmer because it looks like it will go with the rest of the calm, cool colors in our house! Given I've been painting our house one room at a time, free paint would be perfect so maybe we could finally finish 🙂
I would like Kaleidoscope C52-3 for my new bathroom! I want a blue color!

I choose Lime Green. It's the color I was already planning on painting my son's room. How nice it would be to win it!
I wish I had a blog to post this on, but I don't. I do love your blog and tell EVERYONE about it! We just recently finished putting up dry wall in every room of our house, after discovering poorly maintained walls underneath 5-7 layers of wallpaper in each room. Many months later we are finally ready to paint! I think a great green like Leap Frog would really add something special to our kitchen. Thanks!
Pins and needles would be a lovely color. Thanks for the giveaway!
I've been wanting to redo the front room and kitchen. I would chose Sand White or Water Chestnut just because I'm looking to lighten the walls and bring in the color with everything else.
Cool giveaway! I'd use it for redoing the bedroom of my boys, it is so bleak in there. It really needs some help. I'd pick aqua chiffon. Thanks!
I am a follower and I would choose Ivy Vine in the Kitchen Semi-gloss paint because the other half of my kitchen desperately needs a new paint job!
I also tweeted about the giveaway (SciHousewife) 🙂
I'd love the Blarney Stone color (B65-6) – green makes me happy!
And of course I'm a follower!
Great giveaway! I choose B68-5 Asparagus and A63-4 Green Ballon because they are my wedding colors and I love them together!
Great giveaway! I just bought a house where all the walls are painted in gloss paint (don't ask!) and covered in all kinds of grime, so paint and primer and my new best friends!
I think I'd choose saddle soap for my living room. It looks like a nice neutral color that would show off my purple couches nicely. I'm tweeting this too (BambeeBliss is my twitter name)
Thanks Camilla, for the heads up! I'd love to win, I could use a soft gray-blue for a makeover I'm doing for a women's center. That would be great! Since I really don't have any rooms left to paint. 🙂
I tweeted too!
@HighHeelFoot is having a great paint giveaway. Stop by & check it out! Free Olympic paint: http://tinyurl.com/yh27ghy
Oooh, I'm waiting to paint my stairwell and upstairs hallway. Ashen or Tightrope would work well with the adjoining rooms.
I have dogs, so good thing there's primer! LOL.
I have been wanting to paint my bedroom and I would choose Smokescreen.
I'd pick lovely lilac as an accent color in my bathroom

Paint?!? Yes please! Been wanting to paint my master bedroom a serene shade of gray-perhaps something like Gray frost or steeple gray. If I win perhaps you could give me your expert opinion 🙂
Re-tweeted!
Paint, oh, sweet paint and that of the Olympic brand that I have fallen in love with!!! I would spend my winnings on color matching some fabric that we are using in our upcoming master bedroom re-do.

Great Givaway! I think I would chose smokescreen or blue smoke.
I love Earthy Cane (C13-3). We are in the process of painting our WHOLE interior, so I would pick this for our newly remodeled bathroom!

My daughter's name is also Camila spelled with one "l" (I normally see it spelled with two).
I'm painting my whole house (yes, every single room), and would love Fisherman's Net D11-2 for my office. I'm posting this offer on my blog, hope you don't mind. Monday's my b-day and this would be a nice present (hint, hint). I'm a follower.
This is a great giveaway! I would choose smoky grape for my bathroom. The purple with white accents would be perfection!
Great giveaway. We just bought a house and I would love to paint our bedroom smoke screen or lunar eclispe. raladtx@gmail.com

I like the color Tightrope. Our dining room needs a new coat. The current color is far too golden toned, especially at night when the sun goes down. If I win the paint, it might be easier to convince my husband to repaint! 😉
Great giveaway! We just moved into a new house–I would love filigree for my kitchen (which is currently neon green!)
i choose champagne ice c271

shy violet – I've been waiting to paint the master bedroom. This would be perfect!
tatefamily@sti.net
I'm just getting ready to paint. We are trying to update our house. I would probably choose Smokescreen but would have to play around with paint sample first. You know how it goes.
Oh, and I am a subscribed reader through google reader.
I'd pick a soft greyish white.
rray@liberty.edu
Hi! I'm a follower through Google Reader…
This is an awesome giveaway.
I'd probably get the paint color matched to a Glidden paint color I've chosen to paint my living room and up the hall through the stairway– I'm choosing between Silver Birch and a few other colors!
I'd choose Antique Moss; we chose the WRONG paint color for our kitchen and I need to fix it!
I also blogged and tweeted about it 🙂
Can I tell you how happy it makes me that it is getting easier to find quality green paint choices, those that i doen't worry about nasty vocs being enhaled by the kiddos? Thanks for the lovely giveaway, there is a dresser in my baby's room that needs a lil' tlc and would look ever so fabulous in Olympic's "milky way" blue. hugs, trina
I think 'smoke screen' would be perfect for my project but I'd need to check a swatch first. Thanks for the giveaway!
Olympic's Stratosphere in semi-gloss. For the bathroom.
Oooh I'd love to use Applesauce Cake or Vanilla Brandy in the yoga room I'm in the middle of working on!
I'm a follower! I so want to repaint our powder bath and the accent wall in our guest bedroom. Right now I'm leaning toward Parchment Paper. Awesome, green giveaway!
My craft room is screaming for some Turquoise Mint!! If you could only see it-totally 80's.
