Win a beadtastic prize just by blowing your own trumpet by showing us your fabulous creations! A £50 gift voucher could be yours to spend at Beads Unlimited.

Sorry! This competition is now closed.

Autumn is a veritable feast for the eyes. Bursting with fabulous colours, it has to be one of the most inspirational times of the year. So as we bask in the heat of an Indian Summer or at least dream of it, we thought it would be a good idea to mark the season with a competition.

What do I have to do?

We would like to see necklaces celebrating Autumn, made by your own fair hands. You can be as flamboyant or subtle as you like as long as it’s all your own idea. So treat yourself or dig out some beads in warm and glowing shades and harvest a beadtastic masterpiece!

How do I enter?

Simply email us a photo of your Autumn Inspiration Necklace by 22nd November 2009 and we will pick the piece we think best illustrates the Autumn vibe. One lucky winner will receive a £50 gift voucher for Beads Unlimited. Three runners up will each receive a £10 gift voucher. Your fabulous creations will also be up in lights! The lucky winner, runners up and close favourites will have their necklace photos displayed right here on our blog and our other associated websites. **

Rules and a bit of small print:

  • Photos must be in jpeg format, 72dpi and no larger than 5mb in size.
  • Email us your photo, no later than 22nd November 2009, to mailbox@beadsunlimited.co.uk
  • Your email should be entitled ‘Autumn Inspiration Necklace Making Competition’
  • Remember to include your name and postal address or we won’t be able to send you the prize if you win! *
  • The judges decision is final. Winners will be notified by post no later than the 6th December 2009.
  • *We promise not to send you annoying junk mail or disclose your name and address to any third parties. We love empty spam boxes and trees.
  • **Bead Barmy reserve the right to publish entered photos on the Bead Barmy blog site, Beads Unlimited Facebook and MySpace sites and the Beads Unlimited website www.beadsunlimited.co.uk

    Yess! I have been planning something autumny for a while now. This is a good excuse to spurge on beads and make it.
