What's the weather like where you are? It's raining here, and has been all day. A dark and gloomy day, the dreariest of autumn afternoons and on a Wednesday too, of all days. But luckily it's the season of fairy lights, blankets and candles, and I am really delighted to be able to offer you a fantastic giveaway today - a set of Cable and Cotton Lights! You know that I have been a fan of these lights for some time now and have written about them before as I really do think they are quite lovely.
Cable and Cotton are kindly offering one 20 light string, and you can choose between one of their Pre-Selected collections, or pick your own. All you have to do is leave me a comment. Just tell me your name and where (roughly) you are from. Humour me here, I would just love to know whereabouts you all are. No need to tell me your choices yet - when the giveaway closes I'll contact the winner and do it that way, so if you are an anonymous commenter, you'll need to leave an email address. Once all the details are sorted out, Cable and Cotton then will send the lights directly to you.
I am really sorry but this giveaway is only open to UK and European readers. I tried my very hardest to make it a worldwide competition, but this limitation is to do with things like plugs and wiring, which are beyond my control.
The giveaway will close at midnight on Wednesday 22 October.
Good luck!
This giveaway has now closed. Thank you.
This giveaway has now closed. Thank you.
I have visited the Cable and Cotton website many times! I just never have a good enough excuse to buy the lights..... What a great give-away! I live in Glasgow, where it is chilly but dry just now. Christina x
ReplyDeleteNormally I never participate in giveaways (just to avoid the sadness of never winning ;-)), but this time, I really want to give it a try, I love these lights ! They are not sold here in Belgium (or at least, I've never seen them in stores...). Well, that also answered your question : I'm from Belgium, from Flanders (the dutch speaking part of Belgium), and I live in a small town in the province of Limburg, namely Hasselt (famous for its speculoos, a sort of gingerbread-spiced-biscuit).
ReplyDeleteOoooh - yes, yes, yes! I'm here in Stone inStaffordshire and it sounds like we have matching weather at the moment - dull and wet. Love the Cable and Cotton lights. Fingers crossed x Jane
ReplyDeleteHi, LOVE reading your blog! and live on the Isle of Wight, and very wet and gloomy here at the moment! and just love these lights. x Fran
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I've always loved these lights :) I live in South Lincolnshire, it's very flat but lots of pretty villages! x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful lights!! I live in the Ribble Valley, in lancashire. It's very pretty and often very wet! Sarah
ReplyDeleteI have been lusting after the glow ones. I live just north of Birmingham :)
ReplyDeleteVery dreich day here in Skipton. The weather is affect my toddler's mood, lots of tantrums today.

It's just what the doctor ordered. It has been so dark and dreary here today in Hampshire so tonight we have lit the log burner. jennylarking@gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteOh those would look so pretty drapped lovingly across my mantle! I'm originally from north bucks but now happily settled in northants x
ReplyDeleteHelen_ridley1@hotmail.co.uk
It has been very gloomy here too, not a lot of rain, but still gloomy. I live in a small market town on the south west edge of the peak district :) I love those cable and cotton lights! I thought about buying some a while back but couldn't decide on colours, now they're on hold until I have a job again!
ReplyDeleteHey Gillian,
ReplyDeleteI would love to be entered into this giveaway. This morning it was bucketing it down in St Ives. Olly and I had waterproofs on to go to school. By 12, the sun was shining, it was warm and I was walking Honey in flip flops!
Leanne xx
Cable and Cotton lights have been on my (very long) wishlist for ages! I'm from Devon, surrounded by beautiful beaches and countryside.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I've always wanted some of those, they've been on my wish list for a long time. I went into the Brighton shop a couple of months ago and they had so many lovely colours to choose from. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed!!
ReplyDeleteWell, saying I live in London is a bit boring, you know that already, so I'll tell you where I've been before coming here.. I was born a little bit inland from Brittany, then moved about 5 times to various places in the northern half of France to then settle somewhere in the Alps when I was 14. I stayed there for a while, spent a year in Germany and a few months near Rome as part of my (language) studies, spent a year studying in Paris, then moved to London, 13 years ago!
It's been a gloomy grey day here too in West Lancashire, I live in a small village about 15 mins from Southport. My fairy lights and candles are already on, which feels so homely and cosy as it's starting to turn a bit stormy out there now.
ReplyDeleteI saw these lights at Janet Bell's studio in Beaumaris and fell in love with them (you could pick your own colour combo), but we were there for a friends birthday present so have had a serious case of the wanties since.
Thanks for the chance to win such a great giveaway.
Amanda
Hello Gillian...
ReplyDeleteDamp and chilly in Co. Durham. Had to wait in for a parcel delivery today so lit the log burner and started a new knitting project - a lovely, cosy, peaceful day.
Gorgeous lights!
Hi there! I’m Marta, a reader of your blog from Barcelona, Spain. I'd love to see these Cable and Cotton lights in my studio while I'm working! Thank you!

ReplyDeleteI would love to be entered into your giveaway please Gillian. I've wanted some of these for ages.
ReplyDeleteI live near Bognor, West Sussex. Oh and yes its been raining all day here too! xx
Oh, I have been coveting Cable and Cotton lights, they do look lovely. I'd love to win a set!
ReplyDeleteOh how lovely, it has also been a rainy crazzy sort of day here too in Lancashire Chorley. I have lived here for just about half a year as I was previously in Den Haag in the Netherlands. ( I am happy to be able to take part in the giveaway now ! ) these lights are gorgeous and I would love to win them. Heres to hoping ... xx
ReplyDeleteOops, sorry, now I'll have messed up your numbers but forgot to say I'm from the Black Isle in the Scottish Highlands!
ReplyDeleteI love these lights especially now it's so grey and miserable outside - need something to add some light and colour inside. Sue in a very wet Solihull x
ReplyDeleteI've admired your lights for ages so would love to win some. I'm 25 miles to the west of Manchester. x
ReplyDeleteHi, I discovered your blog a few months ago and I have loved reading about your family's antics and the glimpses into your lovely home. What a coincidence - I was just looking at the Cable and Cotton website yesterday, deliberating over which lights to choose! I live in a tiny village called Haconby, which is near Bourne in Lincolnshire, just on the edge of the fens. Rolling hills to the west and eerie flatlands to the east! Grey and drizzle today, even the hounds didn't want to go out! x
ReplyDeleteThey are very lovely lights and I'd love to be included in your giveaway. I live in a pretty little seaside town in East Lothian, Scotland :0) x
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty lights! I'm a Warwickshire lass now living up in the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine you are going to get quite a few entries for this and I'm not surprised .... I'm Lisa by the way from Sunderland, right on the north east coast.
ReplyDeleteThese lights are lovely! I'm near the coast in West Sussex.
ReplyDeleteMe, me, me, me!!! I too have been coveting these lights for quite some time. It's been grey and moist here all day today but I'm determined to stay chipper. I'm a Leicester lass (though nobody ever believes me when I tell them). Thank you flower. xx

ReplyDeleteOh boy what a great giveaway, I love those lights but they are hard to get here in Austria...which answers your question! I grew up in a small village in the East of Austria, near the Hungarian border. I never won a giveaway, this would make me soooo happy! :)
ReplyDeleteLooked these up after seeing them on your blog ages ago, but decided I couldn't afford them! I live 20 miles north of Cambridge. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteOMG - I would LOVE to win these lights! They've been on my "things to buy when I've got oodles of money to waste" for agggges! I live in Bexley, though my heart lives somewhere far nicer!x

Gosh what an amazing number of entries! I wondered whether it would be worthwhile adding to them, but then I've always wanted to own a string of Cable and Cotton lights and often drool over them in shops and try and work out a colour combination but then keep changing my mind. I live in Cornwall having moved here several years ago from London via Bristol. I still feel like I'm on holiday, it's a wonderful place. Antonia x

Hi Gillian! My name is Jo, a teacher who tries to crochet to relax in my spare time, and I live in Bristol. I love these cable and cotton lights and have hankered after a string set as they just have a real cosy glow. I am not fond of bold ceiling lighting preferring the glow of fairy lights or table lamps in my house. I think my choice would be the marshmallow set- they'd add a perfect warming and soothing glow in my lounge! I am a regular reader of your blog- thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI'm having Christmas lights around home all the year through, so.......... Iet me try to have more seroiuos lights to make me happy. Is Italy too far? I don't think so. Always following your blog since I found out it. it's lovely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hug and kisses. Antonella
