Original Post

Here's the rules. Only post something new that you have created for the challenge.

Something a little different this week, and I think we might have done something similar before when we first started. I think this can be both fun and challenging at the same time. I have been keeping up with this forum thread, and it is what inspired me this week.

Anyway, this week's challenge is to create something that shows what you're shop is all about. A signature piece or show piece if you will. Something that shows what you want your shop to be known for or what your shop stands for. Think outside of the box. Have fun and be creative.

Anyone is allowed to participate. I will not post a new challenge until Monday, October 15th, though this is not a deadline.

Ooooh...that's a good one. There are SO many old ones I've missed out on that I want to go back and pick up eventually, but I HAVE to do this one. (And, hey, my painting for the colors of the rainbow challenge sold last night, so I'm sending it off to a new home today...whoo hooo!)

Oh boy, my shop still hasn't found its niche yet. Only been open a couple of months and it's experimental right now. this is just the challenge to make me focus (or at least try).

Dreamygiraffe...fantastic! I LOVE it when paintings sell...mine or anyone else's. Shows there really are art lovers in this world. A big congratulations to you!

Okay, I'm off to work.

I know we've done this challenge before now that I think about it, but for those of us who've been around, it will be interesting to see if the idea has changed.

No worries if your shop is new, peg. Use it as a way to show where you want your shop to head or something like that.

hey everyone!

Been a *long* time for me! :) My shop has COMPLETELY done a 360 since the last time I took part in a creative challenge... so this one should be really fun to do!

PLUS, I finally have some free time. Which means I can participate! :) Yea!

-Congrats dreamygiraffe on the sale. Thats great!

Thanks, guys! ;)

I've got mine all sketched out, after brainstorming all day, and now I'm going to PAINT. It's a 12" X 16" canvas (I'm out of 9" X 12"s :() so it'll probably be Sunday night at 11:59 before I get mine posted. But I am IN this week!
