Creative Challenge 7/26-8/9

Jump to solution
Hello Everyone! Please enjoy the Creative Challenge for this week :)

Here's the basic's of what our weekly creative challenges are:
On Monday every two weeks there will be a new challenge posted with a new theme. If you choose to participate, use the theme to gather inspiration for a new item listing (handmade OR vintage). Then the next Saturday report back by midnight (EST) and post a link to your listing down below, and at the end I will create a treasury list (or multiple, depending on the number of entries) for the theme. Then we all go over and promote the goodness out of the treasuries! Just so that isn't too confusing, here's a more detailed list of how this will work and this CC themes:

This weeks theme: Back to School

Theme for next CC: TBD

1-Post letting us know you are participating...but don't tell us what you are making-we don’t want anybody stealing any ideas ;)

2-When it is ready, post a link to your finished item listing and let us know how you got your creative juices flowing, if you had trouble coming up with something, if you knew right away what you were going to do..anything about your item!

3-I will make a treasury then post the link to it.

4-Head on over there and show the treasury lots of love! Be sure to comment so we know you were there! Pin, tweet, “like”..do whatever you can to get the treasury pushed and maybe even get some sales.

5- Come back over here and post letting us know you showed the treasuries some love and any ideas for upcoming Creative Challenges; it would be awesome if its something currently trending but totally does not have to be!

6-I will compile a list and every 4 weeks will put them all into Random.org to come up with the themes for the following weeks.

So thats how it works! The goal of this thread is to hopefully help us get some creative juices flowing and get some sales! This time we will have until Friday the 9th to get something made and posted for this weeks theme...so that is 14 days this time! Treasury will be made on Sunday the 11th and new creative challenge will be posted between the 12nd and 13th!

The creative challenge treasury for last week:

***Please keep in mind that this is for NEW item listings created for this thread ONLY. This is not a way to get into a treasury for "free".***

***Also please only post items for THIS CC'S theme in this thread. If you are making an item for any of the themes in the weeks to come, wait until that thread is made to list and post your item...this makes it so much easier on me when it comes to treasury time!***

Enjoy everybody! :)

Hi
I am not sure where I am supposed to post letting you know that I want to participate in the Back To School treasury. I don't see any other posts here. I'm new and still fumbling around. Sorry... Please let me know if I am in error here. Thank you.

When is that week ending? I painted the bead and I am stringing them when I got time...which is very little lately.

I am in if it's not for tomorrow.

Hi Kathy! Welcome to the team. You can post here that you are participating, and when your item is ready, you post it here in the same thread.

Eejee, the deadline is August 9th, you have plenty of time!

Glad to hear it Jacqui, can't wait to see it!

I'm in the process of making two things, but don't think they will be ready for August 9th, so I will hold off until next time. ♥

Education has always been a high priority for my family, therefore I was a bit surprised when I looked over my inventory and found I had nothing education related. I always like this time of year when school starts back up, so this one was easy for me. I'm looking forward to seeing what other folks make. https://www.etsy.com/listing/157979766/etsy-banner-set-etsy-shop-banner-etsy?ref=shop_home_active

Back to school gym shirt.
I made this tee for my oldest son since they are required to have a gray gym shirt in his school.

Not sure, with all I've got on at the moment, that I can join in - but will definitely visit, follow and fave when the Treasury goes up (as I've just done for this latest one). Great idea.

Hey, Tara. Did I miss the next challenge announcement topic?
And if we do not have enough for 16 slot, can we do a draw. Like random pick member that have things posted recently that fit the thematic?
I mean, the only restrain will be it need to fit the thematic and that it have been posted less than a week ago...?
