Here’s the deets:

What’s in it for YOU?

  • a FREE re-design of one of your bathrooms in your home (so think of your smallest bathroom and I’ll think big!)
  • my commitment to stick to a $100 budget ($100 = cost of materials such as paint, accessories, it all depends on what makes the best design sense for YOUR bathroom)

What’s in it for ME?

  • one more happier bathroom in the world that I hopefully get to promote once it’s all finished
  • more “design to see” and s.e. design, inc. facebook followers :-)

Here’s how it works…

  1. if you’re reading this from my blog right now, click the “Follow” button so I know who you are (you will be instructed to put in your email at that time) AND…
  2. click the SUBSCRIBE TO DESIGN-TO-SEE Posts button (and follow the instruction to subscribe) so you will know who the winner is when I make the announcement next Friday, March 25th, 2011
  3. if you are not already a fan of my s.e. design facebook, please click this link s.e. design, inc. fan and then click the “like” or “fan” box
  4. okay now for the good stuff – I will gather all the names from my blog and s.e. design, inc. facebook page and put them in a very large basket, do a quick little drum roll with my hands and draw a name which I will send out a personal message via facebook and announce on my blog.  Make sure you do both no. 1 and 2 above, cuz I will be making my list, and checkin it twice, gonna make sure who’s naughty and nice (o.k. wrong song for this time of year).
  5. one more little detail, if you tell your friends and they sign up, tell me and I will throw your name in the basket for each additional person you recommend.
  6. once I have identified the lucky winner and we both do a little happy dance celebration, he /she will provide me with photos of each of the walls in their bathroom, floor and ceiling, etc; measurements of all walls and necessary elements; and will fill out a brief questionnaire about their likes and dislikes for the transformation.
  7. my turn – I will then send the winner (and post this to my blog) all the ideas on paper including a sketch of the most prominent wall, a list of items to purchase (remember I’m sticking to my $100 limit!) and a list of things to do.
  8. here’s the catch, you should be prepared to clean, paint, hang pictures or shelves, switch out a light, install vinyl floor tiles or whatever an able-bodied person can handle.  If you are completely unsure of your abilities enlist someone to help you!  I want you to LOVE the transformation and since I’m not going to be there to supervise or pitch in, the success of the outcome is one part how well you follow my instructions and how neatly the work is done.
  9. Let’s get this party started!!!
