2008 Design*Sponge DIY Contest

February 10, 2008 by Jamie Leave a Comment

Design*Sponge is a great indie friendly blog that is dedicated to home and product design. I personally read this blog and love every bit of it! This year’s D*S DIY contest is sponsored by 2Modern.com, sparkability and growmodern. They will be giving away $1500 in prizes- that’s a lot of diy supply money!

The submission deadline is Sunday, March 2nd 2008. Your project can be anything (furniture, decoration, etc.) that you’ve created by yourself for the home (sorry, no jewelry or fashion-based projects this year).

They’ll be awarding four prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place and an honorable mention.

  • 1st place will receive a $500 gift certificate to 2Modern and a check for $150
  • 2nd place will receive a check for $450
  • 3rd place will receive a check for $300
  • and our honorable mention will receive a check for $100 toward future diy projects (or something else fun)

The polls for voting will happen on Wednesday, March 5th and will accept votes through that Sunday, March 9th– with winners announced on Monday, March 10th. and of course – they’ll be giving sneak peeks along the way! So even if you don’t let out your inner DIY maven, be sure to participate in the voting process and support this great competition! More Information Here.

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
