Valspar paint wants you to start 2011 with a burst of color.  For 100 days, they are giving away 1,000 chances to get a FREE Color Sample kit.  For 100 days, 1,000 chances equals 100,000 FREE sample giveaways.

What your getting:

• One, 8-ounce sample of paint  
• "Paint Project Starter Kits" -that include a roller, a paint pan and coordinating paint chips—everything needed to make choosing the right colors easy.

How to get it: 

 

Beginning today, January 17, at Facebook.com/ValsparPaint, has one thousand of the free, postage-paid starter kits that will be offered each day until all 100,000 have been given away. Consumers must simply click “like” for Valspar Paint to receive the free paint sample and kit. 

*Note:  Visiting Valspar's website today; in research for this post, I noted that the giveaway for today, January 17th is already closed for today for they have already had 1,000 requests for this giveaway.  So, try again tomorrow.

How to use it:

 A designer's secret for testing paint is to often do a 'roll out.' This can be done at home by applying a Valspar sample to a piece of poster board and watching how the light affects it in different areas of the room and at different times of day.

*Another reason to  choose Valspar® branded products in 2011, is that  Valspar’s paint donations supports Habitat for Humanity and helps deserving families benefit from the transformative power of color.
