Overview
Go to the 2009 Halloween contest and enter to win one of dozens of prizes in six categories!
In honor of the best holiday ever, we're having a party -- and everyone's invited!
Elaborate costumes for the whole family, gadgets that go "zzzZAP!," gross-looking foods, creepy decorations that turn your house into a forbidding castle, and spooky jack-o-lanterns guarding your front door: these are the things we look forward to all year.
Instructables has teamed up with BoingBoing , Core77 , CRAFT , Etsy , Hack n Mod , IndyMogul , Lion Brand Yarn , MAKE , Toolmonger , Plaid , Ponoko , PopSci , Singer , ThinkGeek , and Threadbanger to bring you a contest worthy of your creations!
We want to see what delightfully frightful items you've made and we have dozens of awesome prizes to give away! You can enter an Instructable, photos, or video, just make it amazing and it will be eligible to win in one of our six categories: Hack-o-Lantern, Costume, Gadgets and Gizmos, Decorations, Food, and Green, or our Photo and Video categories!
(Official Rules)
Create a new Instructable that fits the guidelines outlined in the contest description above. To be eligible, Instructables must be published between Nov 5, 2007 and Nov 9, 2008 (11:59pm PT).
Upon publishing your Instructable you'll see checkboxes for open contests. Select DIY Halloween Contest. If you have entries currently eligible for entry, it will also show up by clicking "Enter this Contest" on the right side of this page.
Entries are accepted by Instructables staff within one business day Monday - Friday. What matters is the submission time, not acceptance time.
A panel of judges made up of Instructables staff and respected members of the community rate the finalists. The averages of the ratings determine the winners.
When the winners are decided they will be notified and announced here on the contest page.
