Title: On Fire Highlight Challenges
Post by: MadeforMebyOaklie on February 25, 2013, 12:42:45 PM: The Theme will be announced and all can join in on the fun. The Prize will be a Free Listing on the On Fire Gift Guide and a Feature Spot here on HA.

Now you don't have to sign up to sponsor.. Just post your Highlight for the Challenge here!

Every Monday I will post for a new Theme and the challenge will run from Mon-Sun nite at 11:45 pm. The Top Highlights will be shared and the winner will be based on VIEWS only ... so the more you share off site.. the better your views and the more people you will bring to Handmade Artists!

Title: Re: On Fire Highlight Challenges
Post by: MadeforMebyOaklie on February 25, 2013, 02:43:25 PM: No this will replace the exisiting Challenge :L) Rather than have people sign up to host we will just make it a HA Challenge and On Fire will Sponsor. The prizes will be the Gift guide and a HA Feature. We can even have featured shops like I do for the Etsy Team.. that way 2 shops each week will get lots of exposure.. at any rate I think this will make it easier as no one has to commit and all can participate as there time allows :)

Post by: OnFireforHandmade on March 25, 2013, 06:06:09 AM: I just wanted to let you all know that I will be delayed in our Highlight event this week. My Husband has had back surgery and I am behind in everything right now. He will be coming home from the hospital this afternoon if all goes well so my hands will be full. I will try and get caught up as soon as possible.

I will post the results as soon as possible from our current contest ..

Thanks for your understanding and patience
xoxo
