New Contest – “That’s So Potted…Terrariums”

Show us your most creative terrarium and you could win a $500 shopping spree at Potted.

New Contest, Different Pot. “That’s So Potted…Terrariums.” We’ve seen the amazing potted creations you all came up with in our first contest, now we want to see what you can do with terrariums.

Terrariums have really made a comeback of late from fine artists like Paula Hayes

To DIY home sites like Poetic Home showing you how to make terrariums from anything…

With all the creative inspiration out there now with terrariums, we thought the time was right for this contest.

Here’s basically how the contest will work…
Each Friday starting October 21st, that week’s entries will be compiled into a posting where people can vote for their favorite entry. Popular vote wins the round. Each weekly round winner will win one of our fabulous Circle Pots and be eligible for the final round which determines the Grand Prize $500 gift certificate to Potted. There will be five rounds and the grand prize will be announced on December 2nd.

One Circle Pot for each Round Winner

Here are the specifics:

1. Take a photo of your most creative terrarium. You must have created the terrarium yourself and have the rights to submit any pictures. ONLY ONE SUBMISSION PER PERSON FOR THE ENTIRE CONTEST. No purchase is necessary to enter or win. This contest is void where prohibited or restricted by law. By entering you agree to all rules and decisions of the contest as decided by Potted and agree to have your photo and name used in any promotions for this or future contests without claims to royalties or remunerations for such use.

2. Email your photo to info@pottedstore.com. THE FIRST WEEK DEADLINE IS OCT. 20TH. A medium resolution is preferred. No thumbnail photos. Potted reserves the right to choose not to run a photo in the contest for any reason and will not run more than 20 photos each week (which means entering in an earlier week is better since the amount of entries increases every week).

3. Send your friends to our blog to vote. ONLY ONE VOTE PER DAY PER IP ADDRESS CAN BE CAST. Anyone caught cheating or trying to rig votes will be disqualified. Voting begins at 8am PST each Friday morning and ENDS AT 6PM PST THE FOLLOWING THURSDAY (exception is round 5 which will cut off on Wed 11/23 at 6pm due to the Thanksgiving Holiday). Voting for the Grand Prize will end at 6pm PST on December 1st and be announced the next day.

4. You don’t need to live in the Los Angeles area to participate. We ship throughout the Continental United States and anyone who lives there is eligible to enter and win.
