I'd love to go, and bring my BFF. I moved into my new place six months ago and she moves into her new place this weekend. We need a lot of help!

I've always wanted to go to this! It would be great to see these home grown designs and pick up some tips, tricks and gifts for my friends or family. My birthday's on the way, too (the 20th of May, Eliza Doolittle day) so I can bring my partner to make sure he gets me something great!

Thanks so much in advance,
Jonathon

i want these for my daughter, Emily, who lives in Philadelphia. She was just robbed at gunpoint Monday night. Thankfully, unhurt, but she needs to get out of Dodge for a while and get a new perspective. Hope I win.

There once was a girl whose home was the size of a shoe,
Her apartment was bare and didnt know what to do.
She won free tickets to bkdesigns,
Decked out her place right to the nines,
And then moved again to start anew.

As a bk local, I would love tickets.

I'm relatively new to the design scene and have been looking forward to this event for awhile. I can't wait to hear more about the book and whatever else I may stumble upon. I love that I get to live in NYC where there are so many things happening that it's hard to choose. I'd love to get in for free and bring a friend.
