Chinoiserie Chic's Five Year Anniversary Giveway

A quick post today as I am working on finishing a client project and putting together my One Room Challenge reveal for tomorrow.

I hope you will enter my giveaway for this gorgeous set of Chinoiserie Chic Limited Edition giclees created by The Pink Pagoda to commemorate the five year anniversary of Chinoiserie Chic. I have published more than 2,700 posts to date - that's a lot of Chinoiserie.

Here is the information on how to enter. Please stop by tomorrow for the reveal of my Chinoiserie Man Cave.

Christmas Giveaways

It's Christmastime, so we need some gifts around here, right? My wonderful new sponsor, the very talented artist Marquin Campbell of Marquin Designs has had a wildly popular antler series that is close to being sold out. So much so, that she had a 2014 calendar created with a different antler painting for each month.

Marquin is giving away an original antler painting as well as a 2014 antler calendar to a lucky follower of Chinoiserie Chic. Enter by leaving comments on this post (not by emailing me, please). Receive one entry for visiting her online store and telling me your favorite item in the store. You can receive up to four additional entries by liking Marquin Designs on Facebook and by following her on Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram. Please leave a comment for each entry. The contest closes Sunday, December 15th at 11:59 PM ET and the winner will be announced next Monday, December 16th so you will have these great gifts in time for Christmas.

More antler canvases can be seen here and the 2014 calendars are available here.

I had to share with you photos of Marquin's powder room she just recently completed. Inspired by this photo she pinned below, she created this amazing freehand mural in her powder room. If you are in the Greenville, South Carolina area and would like to talk to Marquin about a custom mural project for your space, she can be reached at marquin@marquindesigns.com. Here is the link to the post on her powder room transformation.

Green and Chinoiserie and a Giveaway at AnthologyHouse

Ruthie Sommers

My new Houzz Ideabook is up today and the topic is Green and Chinoiserie. This is my 29th Ideabook for Houzz. You can access all my Ideabooks anytime by clicking on the link in my sidebar. There you will find ideas and links to hundreds of products covering virtually every aspect of Chinoiserie. Since I am doing a series this week on Chinoiserie Chic on blue and white, I have shown here some great examples of how to combine green with blue and white Chinoiserie.

I'd also love for you to pop over to the blog of my sponsor AnthologyHouse. They are celebrating their one year anniversary with a fantastic giveaway there you will want to participate in with some fabulous vintage giveaways for the very chic bar or bar cart. If you have not checked out their Etsy store yet, they concentrate on Chinoiserie, Mid Century Modern, Hollywood Regency, Preppy Chic, and Danish Mod. One of their specialties is amazing vintage finds for the bar - so hot.

And finally, tomorrow is the launch of the new One Room Challenge. I am so excited to be starting on my blue and white room. The group of participants is very impressive and I know you will enjoy following along. Two hints on what room I am choosing - it is the hottest room in interior design right now but RARELY seen using Chinoiserie. Any guesses?

Dana Gibson Collection, New Inspiration Board & Giveaway

I am a huge fan of Dana Gibson's collection of home accessories. They are the epitome of Chinoiserie Chic - elegant, whimsical, colorful, chic, modern, fresh, and fun - every piece brings a smile to my face. I have several of her pieces in my own home and would frankly love to have them all! Dana has been gracious to offer this gorgeous pink Canton lumbar pillow ($165.00) to one of my readers to introduce you to some of her new additions. She has recently added some incredible ginger jars and ginger jar lamps to her stunning collection. Below are some of my favorite pieces.

To enter the pillow giveaway,

1. Visit Dana Gibson and come back and leave a comment on this post telling me the name of your favorite item.

2. For a second entry, like Dana Gibson on Facebook.

The giveaway runs until midnight ET on Thursday, August 1, 2013. The winner will be randomly selected and announced next Friday, August 2, 2013. Open to U.S. residents.

Here is a new inspiration board I have created using a pair of her stunning blue and white Summer Palace Ginger Jar Lamps. I love the mix of the very modern metal Blu Dot Strut Console Table with a pair of antique blanc de Chine monkeys, antique Chinese garden stools, and the Dana Gibson lamps which are a great bridge between the antique and modern pieces. The painting is by Kevin Sloan.

And some wonderful inspiration shots of Dana Gibson pieces -
