CSN Stores Giveaway

Two Milestones Quickly Approaching...
 500 Followers and 
One Year Blogging Anniversary
Yes, it's true and I might as well blog about it. 
The good people over at CSN Stores have again given me the opportunity to giveaway a gift certificate.
I love CSN Stores and they have such a wide variety of products. 
I'd really like to buy a Saarinen tulip table from their modern dining room furniture collection
in ALL MODERN.com which is one of their stores. A table like the one in the photo above.
Great kitchen by the way, it's white, has the tulip table and a vintage stove and vintage light fixtures.
The CSN Store version.
It's amazing how that table mixes so well with traditional furnishings.
See what I mean?
I love it every time I see it.

Anyway....CSN Stores has one and I wish I could buy it. 
But it's out of my price range so I'll keep on dreaming.

Today I went browsing their whole website and thought I'd show some of their other products 
I like/love/want/need.
(pretty little bench to use for storage)
This would look great in my breakfast nook. 
I'd like to have this on my deck in the spring.
I went searching CSN Stores a few days ago when I started obsessing about terrariums.
(I'm not having much luck finding plants right now for a terrarium but I'm still looking)
This one is good too.
How about this one on legs?
I was blown away by this sideboard.
How charming is that?
love this rug
this one too
I used to have a rotary phone like this. I think I might need this one for my bedroom.
It's the same color as my headboard.
Then I got distracted by this lamp which led me down a weenie dog path.
I wondered what else they might have of a dachshund theme.
Another weenie dog lamp..this one a little more upscale.
How about a weenie dog clock?
cute weenie dog pillows
hmmmm...not very tasteful
I love pepper and this might influence it's flavor.
No....What am I saying?...I love anything that comes from a weenie dog.
Pepper poop is fine.
poor kitty...she knows not where she sleeps....

See why I love CSN Stores? You never know what you will find there.
And they have super fast shipping too.
The last time I bought something. 
I placed my order late on a Tuesday night (like after midnight) and my package arrived Thursday morning.
I don't know how that is even possible. But it did.

So January 31 will be the anniversary of my first post on Mod Vintage Life 
and I'll probably be at 500 followers by then too. 

So to celebrate I'll be giving away a Gift Certificate in the amount of $25.

To win - 
1. just leave me a comment and tell me that you follow Mod Vintage Life
and for a second entry
2. go to CSN Stores and tell me what thing you'd most like to have.
I'll announce the winner on January 31st.

Country Wings in Phoenix said...

Hi Sweetie...
What would I buy with my gift certificate? Well I am in the market for some new Spring sandals. Here in the desert we are having wonderful 70 degree weather and I need new sandals. Yep, that is what I would be searching for.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

Mel Mel said...

Happy Blog Anniversary! I love following along with your adventures! I'm still in amazement over CSN! How did I not know this place existed? I'm in the market for new lamps for the living room and really love those glass ones they have. Thanks for all your hard work!

"Create Beauty" said...

Okay, they had a couple of chandeliers I liked.... one was $42,000 and the other $22,000. But even that last one is $21,800 over my price range... I do love that 3 tiered metal table you showed. Oh yes, I could find something there to buy... : )

Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for the inspirations!

I would like to have a red contemporary rug for my master bedroom. They have so many, its hard to choose which one.

spookyrach said...

Looks like I am now follower #496. Sounds so official. I've been reading you for a while - unofficially. I detest pink, to be quite honest, but I love your style and your house. It always makes me smile.

And I sooo need the terrariums. And the sideboard that you posted with the bad-ass-elegant legs.

Staci said...

I follow you! You've inspired me to find something that speaks to me and create a masterpiece of a fireplace.

Staci said...

Right now I'm fixing up my home office/me cave. So - I found a chair over at CSN that I love, but I'm in absolute sticker shock. $1414!!! That's right 14 HUNDRED for a computer chair. Dang.

Melanie {The Tiny Tudor} said...

Congrats on your blog milestones! I love that kitchen. It's the perfect mix of modern (table) and vintage (fabulous chandelier).

Melanie {The Tiny Tudor} said...

On no! I think I just fell in love with a 6,000 chandelier on CSN...THAT is not going to happen, but I have put this rug on my wish list...http://www.csnrugs.com/Dash-and-Albert-Rugs-RDA047-DAX2413.html
The floral one you highlighted is very pretty too. I love the colors.

Tammigirl said...

I'm surprised how well that table mutated in the different settings. But forget about the table because that sideboard is swoon-worthy. I would like about 50 of them. I'll push them together, throw on a mattress, and sleep on them!

I would really like some paintable beadboard wallpaper from csn

Marian said...

Congrats on 500. I'm a faithful follower of your great blog and I would choose something from Alessi, in particular there's a twig side table that I have just the spot for.

Debbiedoos said...

Hi Nita, I tried to comment on the pet post, however, I could not see comments link. What a crew you have. The songs the stories, were just delightful. You are truly blessed, as they are. THanks for joining the pet party. I was also confused because the post said you were joining Donna from Funky junk interiors...perhaps you can fix it and let me know. I hope others don't have the same trouble, it was a wonderful post.

the cape on the corner said...

500, amazing! congrats of course. i loved the post at debbie's about your beloved pets, but i couldn't figure out how to comments. your songs and sweet dogs are just wonderful, and it is so obvious how much you care for them!

Jillian's Bella Rosa Antiques said...

Wow, cool giveaway. Okay. I checked out the mirrors on their site and I need/want? one really bad (ha ha) for the end of my hallway. Been looking for one for awhile now and I like :

Uttermost - 08565 B - Newport Oval Mirror in Silver Leaf

Somehow there was a free shipping offer on it too!


I am a follower too. Thanks so much for the giveaway!
