Black and Decker must have seen the post I did two years ago where I used a three foot level to measure, mark and tape stripes in my entryway here.
I can just hear their marketing team now…
“That dumb poor girl. Did she really use that clunker of a level to measure EVERY, SINGLE one of those stripes? Doesn’t she know we make a laser level? Let’s send her one and let her try it out. She might go jump off a cliff after she figures out all the time she wasted by not using our laser level.”
So this is the Black and Decker Laser Level and it is pretty sweet. It’s got this big suction cup thing (which my husband demonstrated by sticking it to his massive forehead) which sticks right to your wall.
No messing up the paint. Cool.
We were trying to line up our growth board charts (by Growing Up Vintage).
Black and Decker has taken the guess work out of it. If the red light is flashing then it’s not level.

Vanna White here is demonstrating how a simple adjustment will remedy the problem…
Once it turns green, it’s level.

Um amazing?! This would absolutely come in handy and make life easier, which I am all in support of. Thanks so very much for sharing! Glad this post led me to your entryway again. I’m actually obsessed. Your hard work was well worth it!

How neat! I wonder if it would work on my plaster walls…
That looks very interesting may have to convince hubby on buying one, it sure will in handy in our upcoming projects.

Awesome! I did the same level thing that you did in my front room. I still love it three years later but I’m not sure I’m going to make time to do it again.
Awesome! I used a cheaper version of the black & decker leveler and it helped out a lot.
Ah! Do you have textured walls? We’re moving to Colorado. Every house has textured walls. Do you have secrets to painting stripes on it? I can’t imagine my life without stripes?!
I am married to the BEST man in the world, but if we ever get divorced, it will be over hanging frames on the walls! I eyeball it and can tell immediately when one isn’t level, but up close with the hammer and nail, he can’t tell and we’re constantly arguing about it.
This prize would sure come in handy in our house!!!
i tried one of those laser level(other brand), it didn’t work at all. After seeing your result, I can’t wait to try this out.
This would be so helpful!
I’m so excited about this laser level. If i don’t win, im buying anyway. I really want stripes in my family room and refuse to a stationary level.
I didn’t even this existed. It would be very helpful for my not-so handyman husband.
That would make diy life so much easier!
I wish I would have known about this when I was painting stripes in my laundry room! 🙂
We just bought a house and I plan to paint blue stripes in the bathroom so this would be a time and LIFE saver!!

I just did stripes in my (albeit, very small thankfully!) hallway with a TAPE MEASURE – I could definitely use this when I go to do a larger bedroom wall! Please Please!
clabenne@gmail.com
I would love it nothing in my house is level because my husband always eyeballs it and says that is good enough.
I’m in the process of building a new house and a new laser level would come in handy because I really don’t want to turn my new, freshly painted walls into Swiss cheese like I did in my old place haha

I have been wanting one of these for years! I can’t tell you how many holes I’ve had to patch b/c my pictures weren’t level.
Would love to win this!!!
Please pick me! Dying to do stripes in my house, but am too scared. This will give me the courage.
I’ve been using cardboard templates, so this would make it a whole lot easier!! Sharon
That is ingenius! I love it! casidyanne at hot mail dot com My husband always worries about me hanging stuff straight…I like to guess, but this would make it too easy that I would ahve to use it.
Eek! I so need one of these to prevent myself from being the girl who spent too much time taping her walls to paint stripes!!
I want one for my husband. Awesome giveaway.

We got my father-in-law a laser level a few years ago – pretty sure it didn’t have the super cool suction cup on it. (dmaylor@comcast.net)
Oh this would come in so handy hanging up all my pictures! Then I wouldn’t have to wait for weeks waiting on the hubby to do it for me.

I would also give this to my husband, since he’s usually the one to hang things! I’m sure he’s tired of me constantly saying “Hm, is that straight? I can’t tell. Maybe a little up? No, down. Up…” 🙂

My husband would love for me to stop painting stripes all around our house, but its not going to happen. This would make it so much easier!! Thanks for the chance to win.
Would love this hands free level instead of holding the metal leval against the wall!
I would love to get this for my husband!
I love this idea! So handy.
This one is amazing. I love the green light!
I absolutely need one of those!

How amazing!!! Thanks for the demo. I was wondering exactly how that worked.
Hi Michelle,
As I was watching the Kardashians on tv (don’t judge), I immediately thought of you…wait for the reason:) The hotel hallway shown in the episode is identical as your foyer at your previous house. I mean the colors and space between the stripes…everything!
That’s pretty great!! I could really put this to some good use. Thanks!
megitys(at)gmail(com)
i have been wanting one of these! awesome
I was just thinking I needed to get a level. And then I happened upon your blog and the giveaway! It would be so wonderful to win one!
Awesome! I had no idea these things existed!

Ohh I sooo need this! We did vertical stripes this summer in the baby nursery and it looks amazing. Now we are doing board and batten in the family room and I could use this! Thanks for the giveaway!

I’ve had one of these for 10 years now. I surprised you didn’t know about it or have one!
Love this. Considering we are in the process of finishing our basement and I have been toying with horizontal stripes for the entry, this would be super handy. I was prepared to go at it with a 6 ft level. ‘Nough said. HEHE!
I love stripes! And i know exactly how long it can take to tape those things off. This would be a great tool to win before xmas. Thanks for the chance,

I would absolutly love to give this to my husband for a late christmas since he hangs alot of pictures and shelves in our house and this would make both our lives easier as i have to hold up his old level as he steps back makes sure its straight and readjusts if its not. this would be so awesome to have.
They are useful and pretty neat to use. Could have used one a couple of months ago.
This would make hanging pictures a whole lot easier. Hmmmm, be good for hanging new cupboards as well.
WOULD BE GREAT TO WIN IT, WE HAVE A DOME HOME AND NEED T HANG SOME THINGS…
This would come in handy for the bathroom remodel we are working on.
