threadbanger winners!

Threadbangers have just announced the winners of their method detox kit contest!

"Congratulations to Jason McCaffrey and Jonna Malinowski and their helpful feline friend for their rad tutorial on how to re-cover a lampshade. You guys are totally the winners of the Method Home Detox kit. nice work!!! You get a taste in today's episode and here is their full lesson. Nice work, guys!

Description:
My girlfriend and I have a crazy and tastefully (there's no accounting for taste, remember?) loud orange living room. We happened upon this awesome fabric in the thrift store that happened to match the palette of our living room. So, it's been sitting in our closet for a couple months when my girlfriend finally had an idea about what to do with it. We turned a hand me down lamp shade into a funky lamp shade."

Head on over to Threadbangers to view the winning video!

bang that thread!

Yeah, I'm not sure what "threadbanger" means either (though I'm pretty sure it's a really hip term I'm totally out of the loop on! You can tell I'm out of the loop cause I use terms like "hip". Right? Right.) Either way, they're throwing a method contest:

"Hi All!

Turn it into a toy chest. Or a trophy case. Rent it out as storage. Make a diorama. Whatever you want. Su casa es su casa." All for only $28! That is a great deal! So make it easy on yourself, and pick up a method detox kit today. Your friends will be so proud of you, and so will method lust!

shop from your couch! (you know you want to)

Just wanted to take a moment to let everyone know that method is now being sold on HSN (the Home Shopping Network, but you knew that, now didn't you? Yes, you did.) The product line was featured on an HSN program titled "Healthy Home Featuring method". The network is featuring method's popular "Detox your Home" kits in four scents, lavender, pink grapefruit, go naked, and variety.

What's even cooler is method is also launching a co-branded reusable shopping tote with HSN (which you can see in the photo.) I love it, as it takes the green tote they are selling on their site, but makes it a nice powder blue and brown! Great new color! And if you're just too lazy to wait for it to show up on tv again, you can always run over to HSN.com and pick it up there! How easy is that! The price is $19.98 (retail value over $50! What a savings!)
