Welcome to the Pen Box Making Contest 2017. We had some fantastic boxes last year so get those creative juices flowing and lets see if you can top the designs submitted last year to complement your pen.
This contest is open to everyone. You are encouraged to think outside the box when designing your Pen Box.
In addition to the Universal Bash Guidelines, the contest rules are as follows:
1- The box should be made to hold one pen.
2- Any materials and methods may be used in the construction of the box and should be readily available to anyone. Since CNCs and lasers are not common in most shops, use of these will not be allowed.
3 - A short description of the box and the steps in creating the box must be submitted with no more than 3 pictures of the box. One picture must show a commercial style stick pen or a "free bee" advertising pen in the box. This is so no one will recognize one of "your" pens.
4-The Pen Box may not have been posted anywhere before the February 13th deadline.
5- You may submit up to 2 pen boxes in this contest. Each box must be submitted on a separate entry form available here..
6-The contest will start on February 1st and entries will be due no later than Monday the 13th at 11:59pm Hawaii time. Entry Forms will be available at the start of the bash. Pictures will be posted and a poll or polls will be taken to determine the winning 3 pen box(es). Voting will last for 48 hours after posting the poll.
Depending on the number of submissions, we may need to have more than 1 poll to select the winning Pen Box .
