Soooo I had a few questions about the stunning RUG in yesterday’s photograph… which is lucky because we’re giving it away today!
With enormous thanks to our pals at Loom Rugs in Melbourne, we’re thrilled to have a beautiful vintage kilim rug, 258cm x 152cm in size and valued at $2000 to give to one lucky reader this week. Seriously. Can you BELIEVE IT!?
You might have noticed how many Loom rugs seem to pop up in many of the homes we feature on TDF. I have no idea how that happens – I swear I am not driving around town with a bunch of rugs in my boot flipping them out for every photoshoot. Nope, it seems that despite being a relatively modest little shopfront in East Prahran, Loom has a very loyal following and those rugs really get around! I spot their beautiful floor coverings time and time again in so many of the stunning homes we photograph, so it seemed only fitting to snaffle a Loom rug for The Ultimate Australian Home Giveaway!
Just like yesterday, there are 3 ways you can enter :
1 – PIN IT to WIN IT! Pin the image / flyer above to your Pinterest boards using the hashtag #TDFnewlook
2 – TWEET it! Tweet the following ‘ thedesignfiles.net gets a new look! #TDFnewlookLOOM ’
(There is a new Twitter hashtag for each prize, each day).
3 – Enter via FACEBOOK! Visit us on www.facebook.com/thedesignfiles and click the ‘WIN’ icon up top to enter. (If you’re on a mobile device try this direct link if you can’t see the ‘WIN’ icon.)
You may enter up to 3 times per prize. Once on Pinterest, once on Twitter, and once on Facebook – totalling a maximum of 3 entries each day, or 15 entries by the end of this week.
Please note, you cannot enter this giveaway by leaving a comment. You MUST enter using one or all of the methods outlined above. This giveaway runs until this Friday July 7th at 10.00pm, and all terms and conditions are listed here.
Ps. It’s not possible to run this giveaway on the homepage without seriously stretching my bandwidth… and as many of you know, it can be very difficult placing a comment here when we run popular giveaways! We have tried our best to accommodate everyone by offering three ways to enter! If you are not on Pinterest, Twitter or Facebook please rope in a friend to enter on your behalf – or set up a Twitter account! It seriously takes under 5 mins and you can forget you even signed up after this week ;)
Massive thanks again to Doan and Jess from Loom for this beautiful giveaway. It’s a huge prize for a small business to offer and we are super grateful for their generosity! (and ps – interstate readers will be pleased to know Loom deliver Australia-wide!)
