DIY Contest Announcement!
I’ve been anxious to get another contest underway, but haven’t been able to decide on what the topic should be. Well, since we are working on growing our DIY galleries, thought it might be fun to give you a DIY theme and see what my favorite readers can come up with!
This DIY project was crafted by our DIY Editor, Kathleen, of Twig & Thisle
So…this contest will be called DIY: The Perfect Wedding Favor. Whether it’s absolutely adorable favor packaging, home-baked mini pies, custom coasters, the sky is the limit! Just show us your best go at creating a chic and personal DIY favor that readers can easily replicate using material found online or at national craft stores.
Here is what we will need from you:
*Four to six images of your wedding favor, with shots of you making the favor along with the final product.
*A list of materials used including links as to where readers can purchase the supplies.
*Step by step instructions for designing and crafting the favor.
All entries must be received by midnight on Sunday, March 15th 2009 via email. The contest is open to brides, vendors, etsy crafters, mothers, sisters, best friends. Anyone and everyone who has an idea and a camera is welcome!
The winning entry will receive $500, with three runners-up receiving $100 each. Happy Crafting!!

Love the picnic bag idea. Very cool. We saw one of our bride's do honey jars - her family raised bees. Also had a christmas tree farmer give LIVE trees (saplings) to all the guests.
Yes lease, can you tell us how to make the lunchbag? Or is it a vendor that will print? thanks - I just love it
