Happy Haul-idays!

What an amazing giveaway Chronicle books is hosting!  Simply curate a list of books valued up to $500, then blog about your list and you'll be entered to win your very list.  Plus the generous folks at Chronicle Books are also going to give one of your readers the chance to win your list of books...so be sure to comment!  (Only open to US residents...sorry!) December 10th is the last day to enter.

As I am attempting to make my list and check it twice, I have two totally different rough drafts working here.  I am completely torn between my responsible list which will contribute greatly to my resource library for work, or throwing my whole lot into finally owning Terra Incognita Limited Edition which I guest blogged about over here and have been hoping to add to my coffee table.  What is a girl to do?!? As my computer is most likely to self-implode soon, do I have to be a responsible adult and go with the aids to my profession?  Who would have thought narrowing down to $500 worth of books would be so difficult?  .......So it seems that my good work ethic will not win out on this one...I am going to go whole hog Terra Incognita, with a few other goodies on the side!!!

Terra Incognita Limited Edition Photographs of America's Third Coast, By Richard Sexton
Small Stakes Music Posters, By Jason Munn
Little Book of Letterpress By Charlotte Rivers
Decorate 1,000 Professional Design Ideas for Every Room in Your Home, By Holly Becker, and Joanna Copestick
Photographs by Debi Treloar
Polaroid Notes 20 Different Notecards and Envelopes, Curated by Jenifer Altman
Cart Total: $499.85!  Now its your turn....leave a comment and you will be entered to win my list. ...also let me know if you post a list :)  Good Luck!!
Here is my very responsible list which will have to wait:
Narrow Houses, Material Immmaterial, Anna Sui, Design Reseach, Small Scale, The Exquisite Book, The Small Stakes, Kitchen Centric, New Restaurant Design, 1000 Interior Design Details for the Home, Decorate, Paper and Craft.

  14. Wonderful list of books. I have absolutely no talent for interior design, but I can appreciate the talents of others. Your list is very different--for the most part--from the ones I selected See My List Here but a really delightful list nevertheless. I would absolutely love to win either one.
    Smiles,

    PS Hope you get to make it back to New Orleans.
