:rudolph: Happy Holidays deviantART!



One of my favourite parts of Christmas is decorating the tree. Trying to find that perfect branch to compliment each individual and unique ornament, my family and I spend hours on hours making it just right.

After all is said and done, we step back and allow ourselves to be enveloped in the glow; nodding in agreement that yes, this is the best year yet.

If you had the ability to design your perfect ornament, what would it be? Let your imagination run wild.

I'm giving you absolute artistic license on these three templates below. Don't allow logic to influence your decision. What do you mean you think it'd be too heavy for the tree? Pfft. Perhaps in your world it is. Not in mine. :D

What I'm trying to say is this. Anything goes. ...pending you follow the rules below; of course. ;)




//contest Rules:

1. Your entry absolutely must conform to all deviantART TOS and Submission Policy standards.

2. You must use one of the templates provided for your entry. This should be the focal point of your submission.

3. There is no limit to how many entries you may have, but please keep in mind: quality > quantity.

4. You are encouraged to add background, flair, and anything else your mind can come up with, but it isn't required.

5. Your entry must be submitted to: Contests & Projects > Contests > 2007 > 2007 Holiday Contests > DIY Ornament Contest to be considered for judging no later than midnight EST on December 20, 2007.  (find your timezone)

I *just* missed the deadline (it's ok, I had a stupid moment). Anyway, I wanted to share what I did not as a contest entry, but because you inspired something that I'm really proud of and I want to say thanks.

So....thanks!!

When you say choose just ONE of the templates, but we can enter as many times as we like, do they all have to be the same shape then? Or can we send in entries of each shape?
