Sponsor Spotlight: Hunter Douglas iPad Giveaway

Custom window fashions giant Hunter Douglas has just launched The Art of Window Dressing iPad App that lets you see how actual products will look on your own windows.  The App will allow designers and regular customers visualize how each blind will look before buying.  A great idea for those who have trouble picturing the finished product that will make shopping a whole lot easier.

            “In many ways, our new App will revolutionize how consumers begin their search to find the perfect window treatments for their homes”, said Ron Kass, Hunter Douglas Executive Vice President of Marketing. “It brings together in one place everything a consumer needs to get started, simplifying the process and making it a whole lot more efficient and enjoyable.” 

In order to celebrate The Art of Window Dressing iPad App, Hunter Douglas is generously giving away an Apple iPad 3 with basic WiFi (16GB) in black or white (your choice) with a value of $499 to one lucky Habitually Chic reader.  All you have to do is "Like" the Hunter Douglas Facebook page and leave a comment here telling me which room you need new window treatments.  Official rules are below but you have one week to enter and a winner will be chosen by random and announced on the blog next week.  

Good luck!         


Rules: Giveaway will run until 11:59pm on Tuesday, May 8, 2012. One winner chose at random on Wednesday, May 9, 2012 and announced on the blog.  One entry per person.  Email entries will not be accepted. Open to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States and the District of Columbia who are at least eighteen (18) years old at the time of entry.  Employees of sponsor, as well as the immediate family (spouse, parents, siblings and children) and household members of each such employee, are not eligible

While you are checking out Hunter Douglas, I suggest taking a peek at the Provenance Woven Wood Shades.  They'd be perfect for any decor and are my personal favorite. 

A little rain must fall...


The thing that really gets me down about rainy days is not being able to find a cab.  On the plus side, they do give you an excuse to wear a chic raincoat.  Rainy days certainly seem to agree with Kate Middleton. If they don't agree with you, just remember...

"Upon us all, upon us all a little rain must fall...It's just a little rain."
