one of my favorite magazines is holding a contest for all you crafty inventors out there.

from the call for entries:

“HOW: Your project should be an innovative, unusual creation using materials whose total cost does not exceed $50. We’re looking for jewelry, clothing, home décor, bags, belts, furniture, bath and body treats, pet goodies, and whatever else you can think of. Try to come up with unexpected uses for objects, or put a new spin on an old favorite. Surprise us with your boundless creativity. Though the winners will be featured in a holiday gift how-to guide, your project need not be holiday-themed. ”

get to it! the deadline is september 30
