Calling all Halloween Crafters!

Well its that time of year again at Rhinestone Beagle to start thinking about Halloween and specifically our second annual 
Howl-oween Tricks & Treats Craftathon.  
Last year far exceeded our expectations and Kelly and I would love to keep the momentum going.  (Wanna check out last year's craftathon?  Click this link for an index of the featured tutes.) 

Now here's where you come in.  We are looking for a few good great crafters, that's you, to share their own Halloween tutorials as guest posts during the marathon.  Kelly and I don't want to hog the spotlight but we will each be doing a couple posts as well.  You can do anything from scary snacks and creepy costumes, to trick-or-treating trinkets and disturbing decor.  Simple to complex, anything goes.  We just ask that it's a you-original creation or at least a fresh take on an old favorite.  Sound frightening?  Absolutely!



Now here’s where you come in.  We are looking for a few amazing crafters, that’s you, to share their own Halloween tutorials as guest posts during the marathon.  Kelly and I don’t want to hog the spotlight on this one but we will each be doing one post as well.  You can do anything from scary snacks and creepy costumes, to trick-or-treating trinkets and disturbing décor.  Simple to complex, anything goes.  We just ask that it’s a you-original creation or at least a fresh take on an old favorite.

So if you're passionate about Halloween like we are, or if you just have a spectacularly spooky idea you want to share, here’s what you do. 
  • Send a quick email to rhinestonebeagle@gmail.com letting us know you want to participate before September 10th with your name, a brief description of your craft and your blog url.  
  • Then get started on your tute.  We will need you to have the finished post emailed to us by Sept 24th.  That way we have time to work out any kinks that may arrise.
  • Don't forget to take lots of pictures detailing your process and in true RB fashion if you have a dog please try to include them in one of your pics along the way.  We will also take anyother animal friends in the pics if you have them, be they furry, scaley, feathery, or of the smooth hide variety.
 We will also be doing 3 great giveaways, just for the crafters that participate.  Two winners will recieve a fat quarter bundle of 5 different Halloween fabrics the third is a surprise giveaway yet to come.  

Thanks so much and don’t forget to stop by for our weekly linky party, Doggone Dirty Craftin, every Thursday!

Craft on!
