58. mekeesha | March 27th, 2014 at 7:00 am

i am actually really into the one line a day: a five year memory book idea. i have never heard of such a thing but i really like documenting a photo a day on instagram so this is smilar but in word form, which is really fun. i love looking back on instagram photos and remembering those moments so this would be a really neat thing for me, i think.

113. Hita | March 27th, 2014 at 8:47 am

I have to try to win these books, because otherwise I have to buy them all anyway! And now there is one more on my wish list, thanks to poking around the chronicle books site: “the rest is up to you” by Cohen Morano and Aye Jay Morano.
114. Rachel | March 27th, 2014 at 8:49 am

121. catherine | March 27th, 2014 at 9:07 am

How to choose?! Gah! The Stylists book you chose here looks great. I’m also a fan of the Art Deco book collection (and I’d snag that Steve Martin book, too.). But Chronicle always has such beautiful and entertaining books, so really I’ll be happy with any of them. Thanks for offering up this fantastic giveaway:)
122. Vanessa R | March 27th, 2014 at 9:08 am

wow, wow, wow!! can i just pick one of each?! i’m such a book junkie but i usually get books to read like novels or compilations of essays but these would totally break with my routine in a good way.
i think creative block is my favorite, as i’m a visual artist and i do get blocks every once in a while. Or the where, why and how looks awesome, too, for me and the little one in my life that loves books and science, too.
thanks for such a cool giveaway.

Also, creative block would be a great book to own!
140. Jana | March 27th, 2014 at 9:34 am

All of their craft books are so yummy looking, but if I had to pick one I’d choose Merchant & Mills Sewing Book.
141. Ann | March 27th, 2014 at 9:35 am

oooh love that Paris in Color book!

150. Brianna W | March 27th, 2014 at 9:44 am

I’ve had my eye on ‘this is happening’, I love what instragam has created.
151. Ainsley | March 27th, 2014 at 9:45 am

Typography Sketchbooks looks awesome! All of the books in this collection are killer too – I’d need to finally buy another book shelf though!
152. Amy | March 27th, 2014 at 9:47 am

100 Years of Fashion! I have been wanting that one for a while!
153. Carrie | March 27th, 2014 at 9:47 am

I really want to read Creative Block!! I hadn’t heard of decorating with flowers but now that is at the top of my list as well!
157. gloria c waters | March 27th, 2014 at 9:57 am

i’m stuck between the art of i love you and the little book of lettering… i’ve had my eyes on both for a while! and i love that you’re doing a book giveaway!
158. Mariah K | March 27th, 2014 at 9:57 am

Wow where to start this is like a treasure chest of amazing inspiration! I love how Super Graphic combines two of my favorite things- infographics and comic book heros! The Frida Kahlo Paper Dolls book just looks so fun and what a great take on classic paper dolls. The Typography Sketchbooks look like it would be a great peek into the minds of some amazing designers. Those and about a hundred others I would love to be on my shelves.
159. Maddie | March 27th, 2014 at 9:58 am

Creative Block looks absolutely fabulous.
160. kate | March 27th, 2014 at 9:59 am

amazing giveaway! I’d have to choose the Creative Block book – always looking for insightful ways to break the boundaries of creativity in my work. would adore having all of these books in my collection, though…what a treat! xo
161. Aleksi Poirier | March 27th, 2014 at 10:02 am

My favorite is the Polaroid notes!! I use them all the time to mail to friends and family as a special “hello” or “happy birthday!” They are so sweet and sentimental.
162. Savannah Grace | March 27th, 2014 at 10:02 am

I can’t wait to get my hands on the new Creative Block book!

I’ve been dying to get my hands on Creative Block. All of these would be wonderful additions to my shelves

Fingers crossed!

xoxo
174. Karissa | March 27th, 2014 at 10:20 am

I am trying to re-capture my drive to use my arts degree so the hand-lettering book or the Fashion designer sketchbook would be awesome tools to help in the journey.
175. Joanna | March 27th, 2014 at 10:22 am

What an awesome giveaway! Books are my favorite and this looks like a collection I could totally lose myself in. If I had to choose one from the site, I think I’d go for To Each His Home.
176. Mandy | March 27th, 2014 at 10:23 am

Time and Tide looks amazing… but really they all do!
177. Nicole L | March 27th, 2014 at 10:23 am

nbagozzi88ATgmailDOTcom
178. Hannah Moody | March 27th, 2014 at 10:24 am

I know they aren’t technically books, but I have been writing in Chronicle Books journals for years, and they’re my absolute favorite. I would love to add the Theatre of Dreams Journal to my collection!
179. Amanda | March 27th, 2014 at 10:28 am

I love the Woodcut book and the Polaroid book! How lovely!
180. Marty Musser | March 27th, 2014 at 10:33 am

This is also a great looking book
Woodworking in a weekend. It is amazing (one you get over the fear of power tools) how satisfying and easy it can be to make something out of wood!
182. Mariana Hodges | March 27th, 2014 at 10:36 am

I would definitely have to go with “Paris Changing”!
183. Emily R. | March 27th, 2014 at 10:36 am

I like the Listography engagement calendar – what a great idea!
184. Sarah | March 27th, 2014 at 10:37 am

The Art of Instruction is so pretty! Fingers and toes are crossed!!!
185. Amy | March 27th, 2014 at 10:44 am

Yes! I love everything Chronicle Books does. I’d be all over a copy of Eggs on Top!
186. bonnie | March 27th, 2014 at 10:47 am

Definitely, “Darth Vader & Son”

We read it to our two kids, Olivia (4) and Jack (2) every couple of days and they know all the words. It’s a long book, but really so much fun. My husband does Darth Vader voices and my kids pretend their little Luke Skywalker.
187. Caitlin | March 27th, 2014 at 10:50 am

This is dorky, but I’m loving The Art of Instruction Vintage: Educational Charts from the 19th and 20th Centuries. I especially adore old scientific illustrations of botanicals.
188. Judy Huynh | March 27th, 2014 at 10:51 am

Paris in Color!
189. Maiya | March 27th, 2014 at 10:52 am

192. Taylor | March 27th, 2014 at 10:56 am

Love these! I’ve definitely wanted to try a moleskin notebook for a while.
193. Courtney of Savor Good | March 27th, 2014 at 10:59 am

Tiny Tokyo and Meanwhile in San Francisco look sweet, and all of the ones in the collection you’re giving away are great picks! Would love to own these gems. Thanks for the giveaway, Bri!
194. Caitlin | March 27th, 2014 at 10:59 am

Braids, buns, and twists looks helpful since I still can’t braid hair. And then the Decorate book really tops this list off since interior design is my hobby.
195. Lacey | March 27th, 2014 at 11:02 am

Hand-Lettering Ledger is GORGEOUS!
196. Shreya | March 27th, 2014 at 11:04 am

203. Madi S. | March 27th, 2014 at 11:15 am

I’ve been wanting the Bobbi Brown Pretty Powerful book. It’s just a cool concept to do interviews of how other people think of beauty.
204. Taylor Rae | March 27th, 2014 at 11:15 am

I’ve been a fan of Cronicle Books for years, living in SF it’s hard not to! One of the best books they have ever come out with is Meanwhile in San Francisco.

Awesome giveaway Bri!
205. Jordi | March 27th, 2014 at 11:23 am

210. Libby Morris | March 27th, 2014 at 11:34 am

I would love to own the Shakespeare’s Love Sonnets book. Having that collection in one book is pretty fantastic.
211. Sarah | March 27th, 2014 at 11:34 am

What an awesome giveaway! I wish there would be more book giveaways on blogs… coffee table books are so often things I want, but wouldn’t always buy for myself! I’ve been wanting the Woodcut book for a long time, but the “Where, the Why, and the How” book sounds fascinating. It marries my artistic and science-y sides in a beautiful way.
212. Stacey | March 27th, 2014 at 11:35 am

My favorites are ALL the Moleskine books. I can never narrow it down to just one because those notebooks are the best for ideas, planning, and creating!
213. Audra | March 27th, 2014 at 11:35 am

Paris in Color looks pretty fab but then again so does Flora and the Flamingo! I am a sucker for design and kids books!
214. Pau Sa | March 27th, 2014 at 11:37 am

216. Virginie Millefiori | March 27th, 2014 at 11:39 am

Wow such a different and amazing giveaway! My favorite book on chroniclebooks.com would be Studio Life by Sarah Trigg. Being an artisan myself I am in love with craftsmanship in general and curious to see how other would give life to their workspace and experience their day to day routine.
Thank you
217. Kelly S. | March 27th, 2014 at 11:40 am

I bought the book “Typography Sketchbook” for a friend and have been dying to add it to my own library.

219. Emily B. | March 27th, 2014 at 11:42 am

The Art of Instruction by Katrien Van Der Schueren looks so interesting and like it might have some frame-able pages to add some interesting decor.
220. Amanda W | March 27th, 2014 at 11:46 am

What a fantastic giveaway! I love all of these beautiful books! Right now I would love the Decorate one because my husband and I just bought a house are in the middle of renovations! Woohoo!
221. Alison | March 27th, 2014 at 11:47 am

Creative Block looks so awesome and inspiring. What a great giveaway!
222. Kristina L | March 27th, 2014 at 11:54 am

Paris Changing looks like such an intriguing coffee table book…
223. Kristy | March 27th, 2014 at 11:54 am

After looking at the website my pinterest wishlist has grown a bit, but I think my number one pick would be “I Was Here – A Travel Journal for the Curious Minded.” Travel and vacations always go by so fast, this seems like a wonderful way to make the memories last.
224. emilie | March 27th, 2014 at 11:56 am

i’ve been eager to check out creative block, but time and tide looks beautiful too!
225. Briana | March 27th, 2014 at 12:00 pm

I am in awe of this great giveaway! I’ve had my eye on Typography Sketchbooks, The Where, the Why, and the How, and most recently Creative Block. Yay for books!
229. Helen | March 27th, 2014 at 12:05 pm

The Tartine Bread and Feast cookbooks to help me creatively transition into eating/making more vegetarian meals. Also Blog, Inc. by one of my favorite bloggers to give me the guidance to take that leap and make my own blog!
230. shawn | March 27th, 2014 at 12:06 pm

I think the story behind The other Audubon sounds wonderful and will probably look that one up. I also love any of the books that are listed.
231. Lea Anna | March 27th, 2014 at 12:06 pm

I’ve always been a fan of those Polaroid Notes and just never picked them up.
232. Allison | March 27th, 2014 at 12:10 pm

My favorite book is “Meanwhile in San Francisco”. Wendy McNaughton is my favorite illustrator, and I’ve been patiently awaiting for the book to hit shelves!
233. Erin | March 27th, 2014 at 12:10 pm

Creative Block Please!
234. Lucie | March 27th, 2014 at 12:12 pm

The Where The Why The How sounds really interesting!! Blog Inc by oh joy seems like it’d be a good read as well
235. Audrea | March 27th, 2014 at 12:15 pm

Oh man. I love all of these! I want all of those listed above – as well as “Paris, Women and Bicycles”! <3
236. Stephanie Meredith | March 27th, 2014 at 12:16 pm

Wait, I’m supposed to find just ONE favorite book? That’s a challenge. The collection you’re giving away is already incredible. But if I have to choose, I’d say Typography Sketchbooks. I’ve been lusting after that beauty since I first saw it in a little bookstore not too long ago!
237. Ari D. | March 27th, 2014 at 12:19 pm

Airline Mini Edition: Style at 30,000 feet would be fun for me to check-out and fun for my airplane obsessed (all aspects son to take a look at too.
238. Lindsay | March 27th, 2014 at 12:19 pm

I’ve been following Chronicle for years! I love all of their books! Their “Hand-Lettering Ledger” looks like just the thing I need to perfect my calligraphy!!!
239. caitlin | March 27th, 2014 at 12:20 pm

The “Time and Tide” book is my favorite! Perfect for summer.
240. Jess Lonett | March 27th, 2014 at 12:23 pm

http://www.chroniclebooks.com/titles/642-things-to-write-about.html
241. belinda | March 27th, 2014 at 12:31 pm

i’d have to go with “What on Earth Are You Wearing?”. what’s better than fashion and dreamy illustrations? not much.
242. Kaitlyn | March 27th, 2014 at 12:35 pm

Definitely been wanting to buy Creative Block! What an awesome giveaway!

I’m infatuated with coffee table books. I really have been wanting the creative block book as well!
245. Liz | March 27th, 2014 at 12:42 pm

While I’m totally smitten with their kiddo books I think right now the next book I will buy is Tartine Bread, by Chad Robertoson. It looks so lovely and incredibly helpful for bread baking.
246. Stacey Sargent | March 27th, 2014 at 12:49 pm

I would love all the books you are giving away and the “Furniture Makeover” looks awesome too!
247. Liz | March 27th, 2014 at 12:50 pm

I need to buy the book “Mom Inc.” for my friend who is trying to start a home business so she can stay home with her kiddos. I have so many of Chronicles books already. I need to add the rest of these to my collection
248. esther | March 27th, 2014 at 12:50 pm

i’ve been really into braids – learning how to do them so “braids, buns and twists” is interesting to me at the moment.
249. Jaclyn | March 27th, 2014 at 12:51 pm

What a great giveaway! Typography Sketchbooks by Steven Heller and Lita Talarico is one of my favorite books–always a good go-to for inspiration.

252. Macie H. | March 27th, 2014 at 12:57 pm

I really love The Polaroid Notes book. I could stare at pretty pictures all day long! I also like the Carpe Diem Journal – I seem to have a habit of collecting journals in hopes that someday I might actually fill their pages with my own words.
253. Katy | March 27th, 2014 at 12:59 pm

Wow, those “Pretty Polaroid Notes” look so cool!! Would love those. My favorite book of all time? To Kill a Mockingbird. Book that looks super interesting and gorgeous over on Chronicle Books is Feast by Sarah Copeland! Look at that yummy cover!!

I totally need the Carpe Diem Journal! This is an awesome giveaway.
261. Taylor | March 27th, 2014 at 1:17 pm

I love me some good books! We have an absurd collection of them and I would love to add to that! I’m a huge fan of cookbooks and I love the ones that chronicle offers, but I have to say, I’ll probably get that awesome Frida Kahlo paper doll book for my lovely sister.

268. Alice | March 27th, 2014 at 1:37 pm

281. Katie Zumpano | March 27th, 2014 at 1:59 pm

I recently became an empty nester! These books would help me full it up again:)
282. Alyse D | March 27th, 2014 at 2:00 pm

I would love to own “Decorate with Flowers” !
283. Ana | March 27th, 2014 at 2:01 pm

Would love to get some ideas from “decorate”, the cover is simply stunning!!
284. HaleyDoo | March 27th, 2014 at 2:02 pm

I LOVE Chronicle Books! I would have chosen Paris in Color but since it’s already on the list I would choose Well-Read Women Portraits of Fiction’s Most Beloved Heroines.””
285. Kaleigh | March 27th, 2014 at 2:02 pm

“One Line a Day” would be an incredible way to keep track of memories and fill with personal photos of things I love! ♡
286. Holly @ Holly Meyer Design | March 27th, 2014 at 2:02 pm

I’m crazy for The Little Book of Lettering by Emily Gregory! Would love any of these books listed above. They all look lovely!
287. Margaret | March 27th, 2014 at 2:03 pm

Christian Chaize is one of my favorite photographers of the moment. Would love to get my hands on his new book but the other Chronicle books in this bundle look equally amazing!
288. Mary Brooke Waddell | March 27th, 2014 at 2:04 pm

No home is complete without a Frank Lloyd Wright book. “Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater” sounds like a good place to start!
289. Christa | March 27th, 2014 at 2:05 pm

What a great collection. Very fun and inspiring.
290. Lynda | March 27th, 2014 at 2:09 pm

291. Heather | March 27th, 2014 at 2:10 pm

ALL THE BOOKS LOOK AMAZING! However, I think I really want to read Decorate with Flowers!!! I need a little inspiration lately!
292. Anna | March 27th, 2014 at 2:10 pm

I love the Polaroid Notes!
I often write postcards or cards to my friends to let them know I am thinking of them and wish them a lovely day or week…I just love how happy they are when they see a personal note/postcard in the mail instead of bills, advertisements and such…and often I even get one in return…so special to me.
293. Caitlin | March 27th, 2014 at 2:14 pm

Wow, these books would really help me stay inspired! The decorating with flowers would really help me change up my room, but I have to say the Get Unstuck would help me with my graphic design!!
294. bailey carlin | March 27th, 2014 at 2:16 pm

This one looks amazing! The Public Library: A Photographic Essay http://www.chroniclebooks.com/titles/art-design/photography/the-public-library-a-photographic-essay.html

297. Marie | March 27th, 2014 at 2:19 pm

I’m going to Paris on my honeymoon this summer and would love “Paris in Color” to build the excitement!
298. cory | March 27th, 2014 at 2:20 pm

Current favorite is Blog Ing By Joy Deangdeelert Cho
299. Samantha Livermore | March 27th, 2014 at 2:21 pm

This is a rough question to answer! Paris in Color, Tides in Time, Stylists, Decorate and Get Unstuck would definitely be winners on my coffee table!
300. Lak | March 27th, 2014 at 2:21 pm

I love Holly Becker’s “Decorate”!
301. Jenna from Lucky Little Mustardseed | March 27th, 2014 at 2:25 pm

“Pretty Polaroid Notes,” please!
302. Krystina | March 27th, 2014 at 2:27 pm

As a designer I love the HOW books. Design DNA is so inspiring.
303. Comfy Cozy Couture | March 27th, 2014 at 2:27 pm

I’m dying for the Decorate with Flowers book, it looks so beautiful! Fingers crossed I win…I need some new coffee table books!!
304. arpi torosyan | March 27th, 2014 at 2:28 pm

I have Paris in Color & love it!! It currently sits on my coffee table stack. I’d love to get my hands on Decorate with Flowers!
305. Sarah | March 27th, 2014 at 2:33 pm

It’s so hard to choose just one! But I have to say, I’ve been dying to get my hands on the “Typography Sketchbooks” by Steven Heller and Lita Talarigo! Plus, every book in this bundle just looks beautiful!
306. kasia | March 27th, 2014 at 2:36 pm

Pretty Polaroid Notes is amazing!
307. evan | March 27th, 2014 at 2:36 pm

310. Erica | March 27th, 2014 at 2:38 pm

Oh this is amazing! I would love all of these plus paper + craft and Airline Mini Edition: Style at 30,000 feet!
311. Naomi | March 27th, 2014 at 2:41 pm

Wow, it’s hard to decide on just one. I think I’d say The Where, the Why, and the How because it’s such a neat concept. I love it.
312. Bee | March 27th, 2014 at 2:46 pm

I love Holly and I’m so excited for the release of Decorate with Flowers. Keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks, Bri!
313. Laurie | March 27th, 2014 at 2:47 pm

I can’t imagine picking just one! I think the Polaroid Notes looks great!
314. Colleen B. | March 27th, 2014 at 2:47 pm

What a beautiful collection! I need to spend more time on that site but from I did see, I would have to pick –
Eva Zeisel- Life Design and Beauty, Summertime, and Paris in Color!
315. CaitSchlabach | March 27th, 2014 at 2:47 pm

Feast by Sarah Copeland, photographs by Yunahee Kim! With such a bright and beautiful layout this vegetarian cookbook PERFECTLY illustrates how cooking can be an exceptionally creative outlet. Also, it tastes great. And when art tastes great AND is healthy… I’m mean, we’re clearly all winners here, right? Food:creativity:color:life:winning!
316. Kayla | March 27th, 2014 at 2:51 pm

These books look awesome! I’m moving soon, and I’d really like the Decorate and Decorate With Flowers book to help me spruce up my new place. I also thought Sustainability in Interior Design looked pretty cool.
317. Kate | March 27th, 2014 at 2:53 pm

I am very curious about the Creative Block. Chronicle always has great books– I love to read them, and I love to give them as gifts!
318. andrea | March 27th, 2014 at 2:54 pm

My house and I are lacking of nice inspirational books like these. These are all amazing!!.
Besides all these beautiful books I have always loved the Scribbles and Doodles series books!!! I always buy two copies one for me and one for mi nice
319. Alicia | March 27th, 2014 at 2:54 pm

So many good books and out of all of them I am drawn to Farts in the Wild. Would be hilarious to give to my husband, ha!
320. Cortnei | March 27th, 2014 at 2:54 pm

Creative block for sure! But want them all!
321. Cathy Walters | March 27th, 2014 at 2:55 pm

I love all of these books but Creative Block!…I’ve looked through it and it’s incredible.
322. Gillian | March 27th, 2014 at 2:57 pm

They’re all visually stunning – I could choose them all but the one that sticks out to me and applies to my life would be “Blog, Inc. Blogging for Passion, Profit, and to Create Community”. Plus a moleskine, because one can never have too many moleskine’s.
323. Tanya | March 27th, 2014 at 2:59 pm

Such great books! I would love to have a few on display at my home!
324. Amanda | March 27th, 2014 at 3:01 pm

What a windfall this would be! I dream of Paris, and I would be in a special dreamland with Paris in Color…
325. Lynsey | March 27th, 2014 at 3:02 pm

I love everything Chronicle puts out -but especially would LOVE the creative block book! So much inspiration!
Thanks for the giveaway!
326. annie diamond | March 27th, 2014 at 3:06 pm

What a beautiful collection of books. I love the Decor8 book….I found so much inspiration for my current house which we bought without even seeing it except through emailed photos. I planned my house for an entire year while still in California by looking through Holly’s book. Can’t wait for the new book to hit the US book stores!
327. Christine | March 27th, 2014 at 3:08 pm

aaahhh, this would be so awesome to own! i had forgotten how much i wanted comic genius portraits of funny people. so that’s definitely going in my shopping cart asap. also, after only living in nyc for a year, it’s still incredibly magical to me. new york jackie would bring a little of that romantic magic to my coffee table!
328. Meghan Oona | March 27th, 2014 at 3:11 pm

Great giveaway! I just gave away a ton of books so hopefully this’ll be a “one door shuts, another opens” type of situations Anyway, searching through the Chronicle site, it’s hard to pinpoint a favorite, but I’m partial to “Star Wars: The Jedi Path A Manual for Students of the Force!” And drooling over all the books in the giveaway, especially “Creative Block.” Fingers crossed! <3
329. Bessie | March 27th, 2014 at 3:12 pm

House Blessings Prayers, Poems, and Toasts Celebrating Home and Family looks inspirational!
330. Angel | March 27th, 2014 at 3:17 pm

Chronicle puts out my all time favorite: Darth Vader and Son, along with Vader’s Little Princess. They just take me back to my childhood.
331. Neely | March 27th, 2014 at 3:17 pm

I have two boys, so I find the books in the Darth Vader and Son/Daughter series hilarious! Oh, and so do my kids
332. Kristi M | March 27th, 2014 at 3:22 pm

I really want to read Creative Block. I have heard great things about it!
333. jodi Scott | March 27th, 2014 at 3:22 pm

336. christi c | March 27th, 2014 at 3:29 pm

I love ‘Farts in the Wild’ – my fiance and I came across it in a shop and almost doubled over laughing. It was so funny! But for my serious side, I’ll say ‘Paris in Color’ – a beautiful city broken down by all its lovely shades. Heaven.

340. Alexa | March 27th, 2014 at 3:35 pm

Favorite by far is Paris in Color or 642 Things to Write About!
341. Emily Jeffords | March 27th, 2014 at 3:36 pm

Chronicle has the best lineup of books ever!! But I have to say, my favorite was written by my friend Barb Blair: Furniture Makeovers. I would absolutely adore winning this collection. So many amazing books and so much inspiration at your fingertips!! Thanks for the chance! Xox
342. Nicole | March 27th, 2014 at 3:37 pm

I’ve been fascinated by children’s books lately and I love the Amazing Animals series.
343. christine | March 27th, 2014 at 3:37 pm

I absolutely love Tartine – it is one of my favorite baking/cookbooks and my go to recipe is their chocolate chip cookies. Gorgeous photography and I got the chance to finally go to the bakery last time I went to California!!! Would love the books above!
344. Cathie Coyne | March 27th, 2014 at 3:41 pm

Good luck everyone!

xoxo
349. ignu | March 27th, 2014 at 3:51 pm

It’s almost an impossible task to choose one favorite Chronicle book, but I have been coveting “Pictorial Webster’s: A Visual Dictionary of Curiosities” for quite some time now. Everything Chronicle produces is so beautifully done!
350. Lindsey | March 27th, 2014 at 3:53 pm

So many great books, but I am going to have to go with the Creative Block book. I could use it right about now…:)
351. sarah.a | March 27th, 2014 at 3:58 pm

great selection. i’ve had my eye on the new decor8 book (a current favorite on my list!) as well as Typography Sketchbooks and Peek-a-Who is one of my daughters favorite books!

362. Emily | March 27th, 2014 at 4:17 pm

It’s impossible to pick just one! I’ve been a huge fan of the Paris in Color art prints for a while. Having the book would be great!! I’m also very intrigued by the My Beautiful Life diary. I’m not the best artist, but it would be awesome to be able to look back at all different sketches that represent my life
363. Savannah | March 27th, 2014 at 4:18 pm

I absolutely adore “Comic Genius” from Matt Hoyle. I have such a soft spot for Steve Martin.
364. Sarah | March 27th, 2014 at 4:18 pm

Oh, wow. I’ve been wanting to get my hands on some of these books for quite some time! Creative Block and Stylists look absolutely lovely! Those would have to be my two favorites out of this list.
365. Maureen C | March 27th, 2014 at 4:21 pm

I have always loved Holly’s book decorate! Chronicle Books has the best of design and cooking catagories – but one of the all time best line of books for kids has to be ‘good night, good night construction site’. My nephews can’t live without it!
Love the giveaway – thank you!
366. kelli | March 27th, 2014 at 4:28 pm

381. Holly | March 27th, 2014 at 5:31 pm

How do I choose?!?!

But I’m sure that Grumpy Cats book would look perfect on my coffee table.
382. Natalie C | March 27th, 2014 at 5:39 pm

Pick a favorite? besides most the amazing books in your giveaway? I had to stop getting their newsletter because my paycheck would have went to books, but I think today’s favorite is Decorate 1,000 Professional Design Ideas for Every Room in Your Home

391. Carrie Hampton | March 27th, 2014 at 6:04 pm

Hi there — what a GREAT give-away. Such a hard choice. I’m a HUGE Holly Becker fan, but I have to say that the Braids, Buns & Twists looks very fun.

PS — as a big Chronicle Book lover, their cookbook section is one of my very favorites. Little Paris Kitchen, Flour (and Flour 2), Chicken & Egg. Don’t even get me started. I could go on for HOURS.

Best – Carrie
392. Melissa | March 27th, 2014 at 6:06 pm

I love the whole collection. I think I might have a new list for books on my wishlist. Decorate with Flowers is one of my favorites even though I don’t really have just one. I have been following the release of the book.

397. Leslie Freitas | March 27th, 2014 at 6:33 pm

422. Kelsey | March 27th, 2014 at 8:27 pm

1. I’m completely in love with this giveaway!!!!! Chronicle is the best. Their Art Deco notepads are a purse staple of mine. On my wish list is Stylists, Studio Life, Wood Cut, Creative Space, Time & Tide, Woodworking in a weekend and Paris in Color has been on my wishlist for months!
423. Cortney Pritchard | March 27th, 2014 at 8:31 pm

I love Chronicle Books!!! They’re great for the home, and great for gifts too. My most recent find of theirs is “Hello Wine”, which I was actually able to check out from the library to sneak peek. It’s a GREAT book for beginners and I’d love to own a copy for my own kitchen one day. I also love their “Darth Vader and Son” book and its sequel “Vader’s Little Princess”. Too cute!!
437. Mystry | March 27th, 2014 at 9:23 pm

Oh man. I LOVE Chronicle Books! One of my favorites is the Listography series, where you write parts of your life in lists (like the music you’re listening to, the foods you’ve eaten, etc.)
That’s why I love Chronicle – they have so many unique books, and ones that you can write/doodle in! Yay! (:
438. Jessica | March 27th, 2014 at 9:28 pm

442. Lindsay / Life By Lindsay | March 27th, 2014 at 10:09 pm

443. Kathleen | March 27th, 2014 at 10:20 pm

My favorite from the chronicle site is called “Self portrait in a velvet dress”, it’s about the costumes that Frida Kahlo wore. Thank you for hosting another fun give-a-way, Who doesn’t love books!?!

450. Michelle A. | March 28th, 2014 at 12:36 am

I love browsing the Chronicle Books shop whenever I am downtown to get inspiration for my work. The books on this list are among my favorites in the store but I have to admit I am excited for the Summertime book to come out in August. After growing with foggy SF summer, I decided I want to spend a year traveling and chasing summer. Even tho it has been on my bucket list for a while, I’d be very happy with the coffee table book until I’ve saved up enough to skip town with a suitcase full of bikinis, straw hats and lots of novels.
451. Molly | March 28th, 2014 at 1:03 am

I would love to win “Paris in Color”. I studied abroad there four years ago and it would make a lovely addition to my coffee table
452. Katie B | March 28th, 2014 at 1:06 am

Ooooh, I think my favorite is “Mastering the Art of Fabric Printing and Design”. It looks so interesting and is something I’ve been wanting to learn more about!!
453. Emily O | March 28th, 2014 at 1:08 am

I think the Your Life in Lists books are really fun and spend time adding to them each birthday. Chronicle Books is inspiring.

Paris In Color, Paris In Color, PARIS IN COLOR!!!
455. Lisa S | March 28th, 2014 at 2:47 am

Creative Block would be my first choice of many books. I’m not a surprised to see that it’s on backorder, safe to assume that many others have the same challenge.
456. Jennifer M. | March 28th, 2014 at 3:20 am

Paris in Color – what a beautiful collection of books!

I have and really love Holly Becker’s Decorate, I’d love to add all of these to my collection but I can’t wait to crack the pages of Decorate with Flowers and Paris in Color. Inspiration like this is a gift that feeds the imagination!

– Jessanne
476. Cherish | March 28th, 2014 at 6:32 am

Thanks for the giveaway! I would love to browse Swell A Year of waves. Thanks so much.
477. Angie Daz | March 28th, 2014 at 6:38 am

I think because it has been such a long, snowy Winter here in Ohio, the book “Decorating with Flowers” is screaming my name.

What a great giveaway. By the say, those “hush little baby” placemats over at Chronicle are too cute. I must have them.

Have a super weekend… and crossing my fingers and hoping Spring has finally arrived.
478. Courtney C. | March 28th, 2014 at 6:52 am

What a lovely collection! I would love to dig into Decorate with Flowers, and I wouldn’t mind adding Typography Sketchbooks to the mix. Chronicle has such a great library! Thanks for the giveaway

That Vintage Wedding Style book is awesome! What a great giveaway!
481. Melissa Anders | March 28th, 2014 at 7:14 am

I know it’s obvious, but this is a truly gorgeous book collection. The colorful covers are my favorite. It really is impossible to choose from this collection. But I would love to have The Art of I Love You. However, I am fascinated by illustrators who use watercolor and drawing and painting to illustrate. Meanwhile In San Fransisco, Lincoln Memorial, and Josephine(The Dazzling Life of Josephine Baker) look beautiful! I must say I enjoy the children’s book and those beautiful picture books the most. Thank you!
482. Mili | March 28th, 2014 at 7:47 am

This is a beautiful collection, but my favorite is “This is Happening”!
483. Sarah | March 28th, 2014 at 7:51 am

Omg this would be a DREAM to win, aside from all these beauties I would love to have The Sweet Dress Book by Laurence King from Chronicles lifestyle section. So many gorgeous books!!!
484. Liz | March 28th, 2014 at 8:09 am

They are all such eye candy…filled with beautiful and meaningful content. Adore all of them.

There’s just something about Time and Tide. Gorgeous but tinged with just a hint of sadness brought on by nostalgia — and not the kind that’s necessarily generated from personal experience.

I’ll stop
485. Rachel Ake | March 28th, 2014 at 8:13 am

I love this giveaway!! You really can never have too many books! As a student it’s hard to go into a bookstore and not be able to afford any! And Chronicle has a great collection! One of my favorites that I’ve been lusting after for a while is The Where, the Why, and the How! A great collaboration between art and science!
486. Cordelia | March 28th, 2014 at 8:14 am

489. Sunny Dawson | March 28th, 2014 at 8:30 am

The Time and Tide Photographs from Praia Piquinia looks so inspired! I might have to get that or Summertime by Joanne Dugan anyway–craving some sunshine and sand beneath my toes over here in Brooklyn. Cheers & thanks!

I’m stuck between 100 Years of Fashion and Paris in Color. I absolutely love color; it’s something that drove me to become a graphic designer, so I’m really interested to see how another person perceives colors in one of the most famous cities on earth. Like graphic design, fashion is very much shaped by the culture surrounding it-whether it be a pleasing to the eye or not. I’m interested to see what this book offers.

My favorite book ever is To Kill a Mockingbird, but my current favorite is The Wildwood Chronicles. They’re pretty and smart, the best combo!

Bobbi Brown’s book looks awesome! The cover is cute too.

Thanks for the opportunity,

Ahh it’s so hard to narrow it down to one! They’re all so gorgeous. I especially love the Southern Makers book. Thanks so much for the awesome giveaway!

Impossible to choose just one favorite book on the site! However “Gem and Stone” caught my eye.

Wowee, what a great giveaway. Gonna have to go with 100 ideas that changed graphic design!

I’d love the typography sketchbooks! Love this giveaway

What a great giveaway! As a young vintage shop owner obsessed with learning as much as I can learn, I’d love the 100 years of Fashion book the most!
705. Katie J | April 1st, 2014 at 8:53 pm

Love all the books but photography books have a sweet spot in my heart!

All these books are amazing; love this giveaway, Bri. Thank you! Let’s go with “Woodcut” #FTW! I want. I want. I want!

I really like the cookbooks “Flour: Spectacular Recipes from Boston’s Flour Bakery + Cafe” and “The Little Paris Kitchen: 120 Simple But Classic French Recipes.” So many books on the Chronicle website look great that it’s so hard to choose a favorite.

Thanks for this great giveaway!

Love Chronicle and have been lusting over the new city books by Julia Rothman and Wendy MacNaughton (Hello NY and Meanwhile in San Francisco).

What a feast for the eyes and amazing giveaway! I’d love Time and Tides and 100 years of Fashion from your collection. I just had a baby boy and am taking pictures of him daily, nothing less than digitally logging his entire existence. I’d love any instructional photography books that will help me better capture him as well as use what i learn to contribute to my new yoga website/blog which i’d like to launch soon.
