OCTOBER READER APPRECIATION GIVEAWAY
I LOVE STONEGABLE READERS! You are THE BEST! And to say thank you to everyone who makes StoneGable a part of their day I’m giving away something a little different this month! I get so many e-mails and questions about decor issues. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could all have a live-in interior design consultant? I think so too! October’s Reader Appreciation Giveaway will help one lucky reader solve their biggest home decor dilemma! No, I’m not coming to live in your home but probably the next best thing…
This month’s giveaway winner will get a complete design consultation by me that includes:
- a detailed survey to pinpoint your interior design problem, your style and more
- a 20 minute skype or google hangout walk thru of the area in your home with an interior design dilemma or if you are not computer savvy you can send pictures
- a plan of action done by me to help you solve your home decor problem
- a 30 minute phone consultation
- a mood board showing you products that I think would work best in your room
If you don’t have an issue with a room but want to win this Giveaway for someone else you may transfer your gift to them.
Here’s how you win… every time you comment on ANY post at StoneGable you will be entered to win. That means you can leave as many comments on as many posts as you want… and you can do this daily! I keep a daily tally of comments and the winner will be chosen from them. The winner will be posted on Facebook and notified by email on November 1st.
Stop by my Facebook page and follow me so you can check if you are the winner!
I’m very excited about this GIVEAWAY! I hope you are too!
Thank you for being such a wonderful and amazing group of readers! We have the best community in all of blogland!

Very cool contest!!!
What an awesome idea and gift. I would love this as my house is “all over the place”. 🙂
Thanks!!!
Truely enjoy your blog. Thank you for sharing all your great decor ideas, I have used many. Especially thank you for your generosity!
Wow! That is “a knock it right out of the park idea”!
Everyone is a designer in their head.To get a design consultation from someone else is a dream
come true since I have many design challenges moving into my slightly used home !
What a great idea!!! I have a Tuscan Home, tile roof, Persian rugs, leather sofa, so when I follow you (have been for years) it makes me drool ! Light airy; however, would not know where to start to slowly change the look??? Thanks for the emails/ ideas through the years!! I love our home; but would also like to consider a change.
I’d love to do a Design Consult for you! Wow!!!!
Great idea and I would love to win it!
This would be a dream come true!
Love your blog. Would love some of your design knowledge to come over to my neck of the woods.
Thanks so much.
Wow! That’s an amazing giveaway! I think I might like this one the best of all your giveaways!?
Thank you for the give away.. Sounds awesome.
What a wonderful give-away, and just in time for the Holidays!
You are so right Leslie!
New to this site and just loving it!! Thanks so much for great info. This is an awesome giveaway!
HI SANDRA!Welcome to the StoneGable family!
I love, love your blog! I have gotten so many great ideas and delicious recipes. Thanks so much for all you do to make StoneGable my favorite.
Yahoo!
Great giveaway! I could use some help.
I would love for you to help me with my new house but it doesn’t have drywall up yet. It’s been a slow process. But, I sure could use help with my current house so it will sell quickly when the time comes!
We could plan for your new house, Sherry! Good luck!
That’s good news! Hooray!!! I’m gonna try and double up on my comments starting with this one!!
I have lived in my home for 35 years. I really need help making it fresh and new! Your taste is impeccable!
What a wonderful idea. I wish you were coming to my home, but this is the second best solution. Thank you.
Yes!!!
What a great idea! I would love some decorating help from such a terrific decorator and blog author! You have such great ideas!
Love your style! I look forward to your blog every day, it’s like an inspiration vacation. Keep up the great work Yvonne!
Yvonne, I think this is a lovely idea. Your style is adored by many, as you have such an eye for detail and your home is so warm and inviting. And, your sweet genuine personality shows through in both your posts and your words.
This is super!!! I love to be able to do this. I learn so much from your posts.
Fabulous giveaway!!!
Great prize!
What a wonderful idea. I look so forward to your post each and everyday. You are so inspirational. I am slowly transforming my home to farmhouse style. We recently added a bathroom, remodled our laundry room and bedroom. I am now in the planning process of transforming my den. I love white couches,but, I have 4 grandchildren, ages 3, 5, 6 and 13 and have the question of how hard would it be able to keep a white couch with children. I would love to win this time with you and your advice. May God continue to Bless everyday.
I do have one particular problem that I have been brain storming for years – it would be nice to consult with someone who clearly knows what they’re doing!
Love your Blog. Read it daily. Love especially your Sunday posts. I’ve had the joy of traveling to Israel twice with fellow Christians. My oldest granddaughter goes in May with a group from Liberty University to the best sites. Now to decor–Haven’t commented in a while….but my biggest decorating delimna is “de-stuffing”. I love all my Khotchkis, but I’m beginning to get claustrophobic especially when seasonally decorating. HELP!
Thanks,
Vicki
What a great and fun idea! Anyone would be thrilled to have this opportunity.
Great idea, you are going to have tons of comments! My daughter is just starting out, took your advice and purchased her sofa from Pottery Barn but is confused on what to do next! She is almost starting from scratch in her great room and on a limited budget! Hope we win!
Oh I would LOVE to decorate a room from Scratch!
Thank you for this gift. It would be a dream come true to have you help with the design of my home. Thank you for the opportunity to win this gift.
Such a great idea!!

Great idea Yvonne! I am in the middle of covering books with burlap ,waiting for each side to dry. They are looking fabulous. Thanks as always for your great inspiration!
Wow! What a great offer- thanks so much!
What an awesome idea. When you give something of yourself, it is sincere. You have wonderful taste. You give a home a personality.
Thank you! Perfect timing just before the holidays
How I would love this and the chance to get to speak with you in person! Your ideas motivate me everyday.
What a great gift, your time and talent! My living room needs your touch.
Yvonne thank you for this wonderful opportunity. I’m trying to refresh the look of my home but often times feel dry. I read magazines blogs and Pinterest but have a difficult time starting. I want to remodel my kitchen and dining room but seem stuck even though I have visited with contractors and have a budget for the project. I just need reassurance to start.
Oh boy would I love to win this! It would be such an honor to have you help me decorate my home!
Would love to have you come & help me with decorating issues!! Always love your posts.
Oh my, I could certainly use the decorating help. Thank you for the chance to win this. God Bless.
Just moved to a brand new house…this would be wonderful!
How great is this!!! Awesome!
Love this opportunity, I am still stuck in the 80’s!
Fantastic idea for a give away! I love your style and decor tips. We recently moved and I am struggling with how to pull my living room look together. Sometimes combining my hubby’s decor choices and mine is like riding a car with square wheels! I need all and any help with decorating. I enjoy my attempts at decorating but somehow my desired outcome misses the mark. Thank-you for offering this splendid deal.
What GREAT idea for your new giveaway. I know there are thousands of us out there that could use her help.
What a wonderful gift. Since I drool all over your house (in my mind, lol) everyday; Please -count me in!
love your style … choices….and your goal to have a nice home at a cheaper price.
I recommended your blog to a friend last night. We both share your love of black, white and black/white plaid!
I am a little obsessed over black and white plaid!
Wonderful giveaway which I would be so happy to win! I have had problems for years with my small home decor.
Good luck to the winner. Hope you get you prize.
What a wonderful give-away! You are so generous with your blog and all your beautifully inspired ideas! Thank you for the chance to win. I live in a saltbox in the woods, which we have decorated in a little bit eclectic, but mostly French Farmhouse style, so I LOVE your blog. And I LOVE the perspective and experience you share! Blessings and blessings!
What a great idea! We plan to move in October so my home is practically a blank slate! I’d love some of your advice. Hope I win but whoever is the lucky person will gain lots of valuable knowledge. Hope they do a post to share!
How sweet of you to offer your services to the winner. You are the best!!
That would be wonderful! Been thinking I need some professional help before I go any further! Well . . . I may need more professional help in other areas too. . . but 🙂 I would certainly take some design help! Have a very blessed day!
How great you are in every aspect of your life. You are such and inspiration.
Thanks for this generous gesture.
On the brink of doing Our kitchen. How great his would be to have your help
Bonnie
That would be a lot of fun! I know you would be a great sounding board and I could trust your judgement!
Have I got a problem area! All my reading of blogs, magazines never address this common problem to cape code homes. I kknow I am not the only person with a cape cod home or this problem. Makes me feel like I am alone in this world! HELP!!!!
What a great idea. Hope it is me!
Sounds fun, Yvonne. Let’s see if we can have Marilyns win two months in a row! 😉
That would be awesome! I love to decorate, but having your professional guidance is a blessing! Your home is gorgeous!
Great idea! Love your blog!
Who wouldn’t love to win this prize? It’s an amazing opportunity for some lucky winner.
Oh I would love this consultation with you!!! A great Idea, I will keep my fingers crossed!!!
Thanks, Yvonne! I love visiting you each day and get so many ideas from you. Yesterday’s devotional was spot on and the scripture was an answer to a prayer I held up before God that morning! Thanks for being His channel…one that blessed me!!
Hi Yvonne! I have enjoyed your blog for many years. I was drawn to your style of decorating and enjoy seeing how you place things in your home. We have moved and are remodeling a smaller ranch home. We do have some challenging areas and would love to be able to have your input.
Wow! What an incredibly generous giveaway! Love all your tips and advise. But presently ( and for the last few years ) I seem paralyzed when it comes to bringing life to my master bedroom. It would be a dream to have some fresh ideas from someone as gifted as you. So I’m on board with your new give away. Thank you for such an opportunity!
First thing every morning, I see what’s happening at StoneGable. ?
Would love your idea for my living room! After over 26 years as an Air Force wife, countless moves, many houses and government quarters…our retirement homes living room has had me stumped since we built this house five years ago! I am never sure if it’s the military wife in me that wants to move furniture…you know, because I am used to moving every couple years…or if it’s just because I can’t seem to get it just right! Great sized room…open concept…no walls…do you see my problem?!? Anyway, awesome give away idea, and so gracious of you to think of it!
Thank you and your husband for your service! I now what you mean my daddy was in the Air Force 23 years!
I have recently discovered your blog and I am just loving it. What a wonderful gift for your readers, I would love to win.
Hi Connie, welcome to the StoneGable family, Connie!
Moving day is in four days. I would love to win this for my new place!
Sounds like the best giveaway!
Hope I am the lucky one!
Thanks for the exciting opportunity to win!
I’m always so inspired by your daily emails, your generosity is overwhelming!
Blessings. ?
Who wouldn’t LOVE your input…..I can say your Blog is my Very favorite. I swoon over your kitchen/keeping/family rooms. I remodeled my old kitchen 3 yrs ago, removing a wall and recycling almost all my orangey oak cabinets by painting them a soft white. I had the hardest time picking a white! Who knew there is such a difference in whites……. I ultimately chose White Duck by Sherwin Williams. I have the basics in place, it’s the WOW factors that are stumping me! Anyway, your blog is the most inspiring to me, can’t wait to make your pumpkin bread in a mason jar and your gingersnap cookies. Hope you have an awesome Autumn! Whoever wins, we all look forward to your stories!
Thanks,
Susan
Love this blog and have used so many of your idea. A Canadian follower
Yvonne, wow! To have you available to help would be a dream come true. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity!
I need a miracle worker, soI’m entering. Can’t wait to hear the phone ring.
I could really use your skills and talents. What a great idea for a contest!
This sounds really fun! I can’t wait to turn you loose in my poor bedroom that needs to double as a craft room!
Thank you so much for the opportunity. I recently found your site, and am loving it! I’m hoping to read much more on here and looking for ideas to freshen up my home in the country. We have 1980 style paneling that I have to do something with, and afraid to take it down and have to deal with the wall paper that is underneath. The former owner put her wallpaper up with not just wallpaper paste, but also put Elmer’s Glue in with it! I’m so tired of living in what feels like a big wood box. But not young enough to jump into major projects like I used to. Good reason to hope I might win……right?
Yvonne…..Wow ! What a delightful and generous giveaway ! It will be the best of times for the winner ! My challenge is a large loft in our newly built home that I intend to make into a creative center and ‘Ladies Salon’ (total opposite of ‘man-cave’) for the times when my gal-pals gather ….I want it to be unique with some intriguing feminine touches….how I would dearly love your Stone Gable stamp on it !!! You are one in a million !……Smiles……Anne
Omg! What a wonderful idea! We have recently made some changes to the layout of our first
floor and I would love your help making it look it’s best!!
I have read your blog for a couple of years, but I have never left any comments, shame on me, I have enjoyed all your posts, love to see someone not worried to shine your light for the Lord, I have made many of your recipes, and tried to copy a lot that you do, I am a crafty person and love to have Dinner parties, I took your idea for white dishes and love them, because of you I have overcome the feeling of not having as nice house as some of my friends, there was once I wouldn’t have invited some to my home, but because of you, I do now, I feel they really enjoy being here, or they wouldn’t come back, I always decorate my table, again your help, can’t say enough about you, anyway enter me in your giveaway, My God bless you. Mary
I am so happy to hear from you Mary! Thank you for enjoying StoneGable! I am thrilled you are using some StoneGable ideas! Hugs! Keep commenting!
The tips and inspiration you share both in decorating and in your own life are so helpful.. Thanks you for the opportunity to have some input from another professional in our journey to create a welcoming home to all who enter.
Fun give a way. Could use some help in my 90 yr. old home 🙂 I love your style.
What an awesome opportunity.
This is a great giveaway!
This would be so fun!
What an awesome gift! I love your decorating style, tables capes and recipes! I am getting ready to re-decorate my living room and would love your consultation,
Love this idea!
Sounds like a great deal. I could use a little help!
Sounds like fun !!!
Great idea for a gift! We all struggle with design elements that work in our homes. I always fear I will over work a design. Thanks for this opportunity.
I would SO appreciate your expertise with my decorating problems! And, I think it would be such fun talking to you in person!
Such a wonderful treat for someone!!!
Loved your story on Living Stones! Amen
Such a wonderful service to offer to your loyal readers. Can’t wait to see how you implement this and hope to see and hear about the changes based on your advice and recommendations .
I love your style and your home. Any personalized advice from you would be most welcome. I have been inspired by you for a few years now, but what could be better than your talent specific to my home!
What a thoughtful, generous offer! I would love nothing more than to have some of your farmhouse style in our 132 year old farmhouse. I need some help updating everything from the 60’s and have no idea where to start. Your thoughts would be so welcome.
Would love to have your input! I’ve gotten so many great ideas from your posts/blog. Thanks for sharing with us.
Love, love your blog….it’s one of my favorites!
I love this idea! I do not have any confidence when it comes to decorating, so needless to say, I don’t even attempt anything! In addition, my husband and I have very different ideas when it comes to decorating. Would love some help to pull both of our styles together. Thanks!
Oh how I need you!! I’m wanting to remove a wall and I’m agonizing over it! You would have the perfect answer! Love your home!
Thanks Yvonne, you’re the best. Awesome idea!
This is a terrific give away! Your blog is my favorite because you offer a variety of ideas but your decorating style appeals to me the most. Thanks for sharing such wonderful posts with us.
Exciting! Thanks so much for the opportunity!
This would certainly be a dream come true for me! While I try to follow your mantra “love the home you have” there are things I would love to consult with someone about, and my dream person to do that would be YOU! This is an awesome idea, I’d love to be the lucky winner, but if I’m not, I just think this is fabulous!
What a great idea! Yes we would all love to WIN! Absolutely love your blog!
I love all things Stone Gable. What a beautiful home! When I first started following blogs, yours and one other one were the first that I subscribed too. Always look forward to your wonderful ideas. Thank you for sharing your love of God, family and home with us. God Bless!!
What a great gift, your ideas are so inspiring. I enjoy all the decorating tips.
That would be wonderful! What a great idea! I love the look of your house and would love to have you help me with mine.
Oh, I could so use this. I just moved into a small home and have one chair in my living/family room!
Can’t wait to make your ginger snap recipe! Perfect cookie with a cup of tea in the fall!
Oops try again. Can’t wait to try your gingersnap recipe! Perfect cookie with a cup of tea to enjoy this fall season!
Well! I’m not usually very vocal on blogs…but I will have to make an exception for this! I definitely need some help here with this living room! I could tell just about anyone what to do with a room (I even worked as an Ethan Allen designer in a past life)…but I’m HOPELESS when it comes to my own house! And, of course, there’s always the problem of having champagne taste and a beer income! In the meantime, I’ll continue to work on decluttering….
Great – just in the nick of time! I’m remodeling a “new to me” old home and trying to stage my current house! In fact, I’m going to be in trouble for stopping to read this!!! Can’t help myself- it inspires me to keep working through all the roadblocks. Thanks for being here! Have an awesome autumn day!!
How lucky for someone to win a consultation with you. Your ideas are so terrific thanks for your effort Susan

Porta, I hope you are better! Thanks for being such an important part of our community!
Having a consultation sounds like such a great idea!

That would be “post” not “pot”. I love your style and blog.
