Do you have a waffle maker you can’t find? Do you reach for a spoon and come up with a whisk? Bottom line, is your dysfunctional kitchen in need of a makeover? Well, here’s your chance! We are so excited to announce that Merillat and Today’s Homeowner with Danny Lipford are partnering once again for another Today’s Dream Kitchen Contest.
You can enter online at DannyLipford.com now until July 25, 2010, and have the opportunity to win a complete kitchen makeover including countertops, flooring, appliances and, of course, Merillat cabinets.
The contest theme is focused on, you guessed it, function. Because we know with just a few Merillat storage accessories and some savvy design tips, a well-organized kitchen is easy to achieve. So be sure to enter a photo of your non-functional kitchen and tell us why you deserve a new kitchen full of Merillat’s functional accessories.
The grand prize winner will be chosen based on a number of criteria including appropriateness to theme and creativity, and will be announced at the end of August.
And even if you aren’t the grand prize winner, stay tuned because we’ll keep you posted on the remodeling so you can learn how to make your own kitchen more functional. Plus, the newly remodeled kitchen will be featured on a special episode of Today’s Homeowner.
So what are you waiting for? Enter for a chance to win your dream Merillat kitchen at DannyLipford.com!
Merillat loves kitchens and is always on the lookout for opportunities to bring kitchens to life for homeowners. That’s why we paired up with Danny Lipford to sponsor the Today’s Dream Kitchen Sweepstakes. Shows like Today’s Homeowner with Danny Lipford provide the ideas and inspiration people need to jump start their own home improvement projects.
On a recent episode, sweepstakes winners Kim and Josh Osburn of West Bloomfield, Michigan saw their crowded galley kitchen transformed in both style and function.
You’ve sifted through seemingly endless styles, colors and materials. You’ve developed a floor plan; selected your cabinets, flooring and countertops; agonized over appliances, sinks, faucets, hardware, and assorted other details. Everything is in place to bring your new kitchen to life.
Now comes the hardest part of all. Waiting while it happens!
KSI designer Sandra Daubenmeyer says it’s important for remodelers to spend time thinking about what kinds of colors and styles they prefer, even before they step into the showroom.
Merillat offers online tools that can help make it fun and easy to define your style, find inspirational design ideas, and experiment with a variety of door styles and finishes, counter tops, flooring, and other features. Doing your homework here saves you time in the showroom and gives your designer the information he or she needs to take your kitchen to the next level.
As the winner of Today’s Dream Kitchen Sweepstakes, Kimberly and Josh Osburn received a kitchen makeover including $25,000 in Merillat cabinetry products, plus labor and installation. Designer Sandra Daubenmeyerfrom KSI Kitchen & Bath (Birmingham, MI) provided the couple with expert guidance to help bring their dream kitchen to life.
“Must be nice,” you think, “but I’m footing the bill myself. I have to work within a budget.”
