(Featuring Erstwilder Designer Donna Mizzi)
You know what we love most about all of you wonderful Erstwildians. It's that often the best ideas for our little label don't come from us at HQ, they come from you! And once again you've gone and inspired us to add a little more quirk to your week.
In recent months lots of Facebook groups have popped up, all dedicated to a mutual love of Erstwilder designs. A little birdy told us that one such group began sharing a daily theme and that everyone in the group would share photos of themselves wearing Erstwilder designs that fit that theme, with the winner got to choosing the next theme... how much fun does that sound like?! Credit to the wonderful woman who dreamed up this whole idea, Shaye Meise! *insert cheering sound*
After one of our designers, Donna Mizzi, reached out to us to tell us about it we were smitten with the idea and wanted to share the fun with everyone. So here's what we're going to do. Introducing the...
ERSTWILDER WEEKLY CHALLENGE
On Monday 6th March we're going launch our inaugural #EWWEEKLYCHALLENGE. We'll post an announcement on the Erstwilder Facebook page at 5:00pm with the theme for the week and you can comment on the Facebook post with your 'in theme' pictures. The challenge will officially end at 5:00pm on Sunday 12th March and our resident judge, Donna Mizzi will choose a winner and the winning image to be featured on Instagram. And, in the spirit of the original game, the winner here will also have the honour of choosing the next theme! At the end of each month Donna will choose an overall winner who will also receive an extra prize... a brooch of their choice from ERSTWILDER.COM! Then each Monday at 5:00pm the fun starts all over again!
