'October Theme: Season's Greetings' Photo Contest Entries

For some it may seem far too soon to be thinking about Christmas (unless, like me, it is never too soon to be thinking about the festive season!). However there is a rational behind my thinking! As you know the winning theme contest pic now features on the main page of our community, as well as our Facebook and Twitter pages. So by the time the pic has been voted for and a winner announced it would seem most odd to see a Christmas photo in February! Much better to see it for the month of December!!

So, dear members, do you see where I'm coming from? Good, that's settled then; the theme for October is... Season's Greetings! A theme intended to celebrate all that is good about the season to be jolly, and all in dolly form to boot!

The winning photo voted by members will now win a whopping $50 PRIZE!! Plus the winning pic will spend a month featured on our front page and be the public header for our Twitter & Facebook Fan Page too!

The 'rules' of the theme photo competition are very simple:

Your photo must contain a doll or dolls
The photo must be taken recently, specifically for the challenge
Make sure the photo relates to the spirit of the relevant month's theme
Members should enter one photo only per theme (although you are free to add more but please highlight which particular photo you would like to go forward into the competition).
Give your photo a title, whether it be witty or cutting edge cool!
Post your picture in the Theme Photo thread in the discussion forum below
Make sure to have as much fun as possible!

It really got ridiculous that year, Nilsa. I need to sell some Christmas stuff, as my basement (said storage area) is chock full, and I don't even know what I have anymore!

Your little "desert" as you put it, is what NORMAL people do. I've been selling stuff on Ebay in an attempt to be more normal, and less stressed-out. I think it's working!! lol

well, I have seen normal people that do the same with Halloween decor! LOL - I'm starting to think that I'm the one who is not normal - actually have the minivan in the garage!!

Hi Tracey, glad to hear you want to dive into the theme. You have until the end of the month (plus a couple of days of the next as well usually!)

Looking forward to your festive creation :)

Thank you for the link, Lilly! I didn't think to look up last year's photos. Those are some good ones! Now I do feel more inspired.
