I got my first email notice of this on August 1st and then again today. I’m so disappointed not to be able to participate because of late notice.
How can I make sure I get my notice earlier next year? The email notice in the content shows a date of being written on July 15, so ….what went wrong for me?
Thanks !
Hi Barbara! We’re so sorry about the confusion. If you can still make it, you’re welcome to drop by our Will Call area and pick up your Craft Challenge Kit!
It will be best to submit your image by Friday in order to give your craft a chance for more votes. We will be posting up all the other entries first for voting today, but as soon as you send yours over we’ll be able to add it in!
Dumb question, but necessary… I know we can use glue for the contest but what about chenille stems for the deco mesh??
Hi Elizabeth! Excellent question! While glue is fine, we want to encourage your creativity by sticking only to the items included within your Craft Challenge Kit.
Just wanted to make sure. This will definitely be interesting project to do. I’m excited to get my creative juices going.
No problem!! We’re so excited to see what you make!
Remarkable Blog Posts!! Great work Buddy.
Will we know if the kits are gone, each day are we able to know how many are left.
Hi Lisa! Great question. When we run out, we’ll update this blog post to keep you up to date. If you want to see if there are any more left, call our Will Call area at 800.745.8800.
