Free paint?!


Holy crap! If you go to:


Pick a color online or at Home Depot and they will send you a free quart. That's it. And it's in my favorite finish -- eggshell. Swoon. The offer is good through July 2 or while supplies last. Get to it!!

Ummmm....I gotta figure out what color I want!! The pressure, I can't take it!!!
(Thanks Tara, Renee and Kari for the heads up!)

Stay tuned -- tomorrow I'll show you how I paint squares and stripes. Oh, and I'm giving Twitter a try. I've sucked at it if you've been following me, sorry. But if you really care what I have to say, go ahead and sign up. (See the left.) I'm uber exciting you know.

    Thanks! I posted a link on my blog to pass along to freebies to my friends! I think I got a little excited and rushed into picking a color. Hopefully my Fresh Guacamole will look good somewhere in my house!

    I saw this on another blog about a week ago and was so excited I put it on my calendar to remember. I ordered onyx black for all of the random projects around my house. I also ordered some green color for my bathroom and had it sent to my parents house. I used my husbands name, phone number, email and it worked. I am soooo excited to get these.

    Wow! Thanks for sharing! This is giving me the little kick in the pants I need to get working on the master bedroom. It's the only room I haven't painted yet since we moved into our home 3 years ago. I just canNOT make up my mind with what I want to do in there. Ugh.

    This is so cool. I remember seeing it on a freebie site last week, but forgot when it started. I picked out Sweet Baby Girl. It's a light pink. I figured I could use it for some accents in my daughters room. However my order has been taking over 10 minutes to go through already. So, I hope it comes.

    I let my daughter pick the color and we order orchid blush... a pretty purple. Not sure what I'm going to do with it now... maybe paint the frame of a mirror for her room? Or a bulletin board? We'll see!

  23. ReneeJune 25, 2009 at 11:07 PM

    You're welcome!

    I bought black so could (maybe) try the wall stencils that look so nice in your house! (if I'm brave enough!)

    You're the best! Thanks for that! I ordered Onyx Black as well to start on some projects which you've inspired! We shall see!

    I'm new to your blog (and LOVE it!) but I thought of you today while at the greatest thrift shop I've ever been to. It is GIGANTIC! You know that bubble gum machine you looked for for a year? Well, they had FOUR of them sitting right there today (3 the size of yours and a smaller one)! I'm telling you...this store has everything! In fact, I think it should pretty much be a vacation destination all on its own! Forget the rest of the totally blase' attractions in Washington DC. Ha! ;)

    thank you for the heads up on this great offer! I just finished ordering my paint sample though I don't have a Home Depot in my town- I will have to go an hour away for the paint but we go every few weeks anyways! Wish Ihad the paint chips to make a good decision but chose linen white as I have tons of furniture that I want to try to paint- though I am wondering if eggshell would be the right kind of paint for this kind of thing???

    I ordered Onxy Black because choosing a color was too stressful. Besides, I can always find a way to use black paint.

    Thanks for so much for telling me about this. I ordered Spicy Orange to be shipped to me and a purple color that is being shipped to my mother so that I can finish the projects in my daughter's rooms. My oldest daughter's room is Derby Room and my middle daughter is getting Silver Bells so these will be great accent colors
