:gift: Participation & Rewards

In Week 1, we received 14 project submissions, and after review, 14 met the activity requirements. To unlock the Weekly Grand Prize, we need 15 valid entries. So this week, weā€™re awarding:

:trophy: Excellence Prizes: each will receive Sublimation Mugs Blank 11 oz - 6 Pack($16.99)

:yellow_heart: Participation Rewards All other valid entries (excluding prize winners) will receive 100 Cheers as a thank-you for sharing your creativity.

Now, letā€™s highlight the Week 1 Excellence Prizes, whose projects beautifully captured the home dĆ©cor spirit.

:1st_place_medal: Excellence Prize Winner 1: @Mark

Markā€™s ā€œValentineā€™s Door Cornerā€ stands out for its clever use of space and festive door-ready design. By layering cardstock pieces on a sturdy chipboard backer and finishing the wording with red glitter HTV, he created a dĆ©cor piece that feels clean, playful, and perfect for seasonal home styling. :heart:

BellethehowtoGuruā€™s ā€œMotivational Mini Canvasā€ stands out for its uplifting message and beautifully balanced home-decor styling. By pairing clean permanent vinyl lettering with soft, cheerful color accents , she created a piece that feels genuinely inspiring. The personal story behind it makes the project even more meaningful, turning a simple mini canvas into a warm daily reminder for the whole family. :sparkles:

Congrats to @Mark and @BellethehowtoGuru! :sparkles:

Too bad the big prize wasnĀ“t unlocked just for 1 project :pensive: I understand why that is so, but it is a bit unfair for the people who win, as they made their part :worried: plus since the unlocking rule there have been a bunch of prizes that were not unlocked, some of them after loads of effort from some members.

Iā€™m sorry I couldnĀ“t contribute this round, Iā€™m so busy this month. I hope next rounds can achieve it, which on the other hand makes it even more unfair for Mark and Belle in this case.
