Next months team challenge.

[Former_Member]

We've not had many entries lately for our team challenges, but as long as anyone wants to participate, we'll keep having them. I invite everyone to add in ideas of challenges that you would like to participate in. We usually do a color theme everyother month, as these seem the most pupular.

So what color combination would you like to to try?

If your would like to present ideas for future theme ideas in this thread that are not color related, please go ahead. We can always come back to your idea another month!

[SimpleTreasures03]

How about One for the Boys? Male dolls don't get featured all that often.

[SimpleTreasures03]

I like The Circus,
Or one for the boys sounds great. That will be a fun one. Good idea Jan.

[Former_Member]

I like the boys idea. We'll definatly have to use that one in the future.

[Former_Member]

hmmm Im thinking about a fall coloured circus theme boy???

[Former_Member]

The one's I listed are one's we've already done. I can always come up with ideas for new one's, but I like to see what ideas everyone else has too! The colors seem the be the one's with the most participation, so I'd like to try colors this month (September) , but I think boys will deffinatly pop up come October :)

Well, we could sort of do a fall colors/ halloween type thing by doing orange and black. Just a thought. Or we could even do "Trick or Treat", or "Costume". I know I chose the last one, but just trying to throw some ideas out there for others to feed off of. What if we included Doll clothes and accessories as part of the challenge (I mean without a doll in them).

[Former_Member]

We've had at least one entry in the past that was a doll accesory, so I think that is just fine. I'd like to do a color thmem this month so we'll do black and orange. We'll save boys for October. Anyone who would like to suggest future theams can keep posting ideas here!

[Former_Member]

Does anyone have any themes they would like to use for future challenges? It can be a color or color/combo, or any other kind of theme you wish.

[Former_Member]

What about a holiday? Valentine's is an obvious one. What about not so obvious ones or (more interesting in my mind) non-American holidays? Maybe a little story about the holiday with the item. Not a clue what a Boxing Day doll would look like! ;-)

I don't know that the doll would have to be covered in hearts or anything like that (for Valentine's), but maybe done in colors or just make you think of a holiday.

[Former_Member]

Sounds like a fun idea. Any of our members out there from a country other than the US that have local holiday's to recomend?

[Tattermedallion]

Do you celebrate May Day in the US? Quite a nice one for Spring.

[Former_Member]

May day is not a common celbration in the US, but I've definatly heard of it. That's a good idea.

[lovealittle]

What about Harvest Festival or an Advent associated theme?

A loosely National Doll could be fun and show all the diversity Etsy is great for

A doll loosely based on an animal?

[Former_Member]

A boxing day doll would be surrrounded by bags and boxes with a very tired look on her face and wearing running shoes with both elbows extended for bargain hunting. At least that is what I look like when I go out on boxing day lol

[Tattermedallion]

You forgot the boxing gloves to fight her way through the crowds to the best bargains!

[Former_Member]

Time for a color theme for January. Any color combo that you have been wanting to try?

[Tattermedallion]

Black! I'm feeling dramatic!

[Guenillesetboutons]

Grey and White for winter ... at least that's what it is here in Quebec in january !

[wildflowermakery]

I second grey because it's the same in Vancouver! *frozen Canadian high-five*

[Tattermedallion]

How about just neutrals then? No colour at all.

[Former_Member]

Sounds good. Black white and grey in honor of the not-so-colorful weather here in the northern half of the planet.
