As I love being creative and Halloween is approaching, I thought it would be fun to host a small competition for locals to share their creations or find their creative side. This could be through cooking, baking, paper crafting, pumpkin carving, however you like! There will be a small prize of a bag of around 36 sweets for two winners.
One winner will be selected by myself, Danielle, as a top pick and all other eligible entries will be put into a draw and one lucky person will be selected at random.
I know lives are busy and Halloween is over a month away! But I’ve decided that I would give people plenty of time to source anything they want to make their creations with and have the time to create and drying time if needed. Entries close the Sunday evening just before Halloween and I hope to contact the winners as soon as possible, to hopefully get a reply and get their prizes in time for Halloween.
Please read how to enter carefully and have fun with it!! You can enter as many times as you like, but one creator can only win once.
