Make Magazine DIY Halloween contests
Filed under: Activities: Babies, Holidays
Make magazine and its associated website are running a contest for do-it-yourself types. There are lots of categories, from hack-o-lanterns (no simple carvings here!) to costumes, food, and even green Halloween. Prizes are understandably DIY-ish, with grand prizes from the Maker Shed store and Plaid Craft Express.This is the sort of thing I'd love to be involved in, if I had the time and I had any talent for such things. I do have a neighbor who could probably do pretty well in the "best decorations" category and we're making Jared's costume from scratch this year. I'm not sure it will be good enough to enter in a contest, let alone be prize-worthy. He's only six, though, so imagination goes a long way when it comes to Halloween costumes.
It will be fun to see the results of the contest although I think I might skip the "Food" category.
