W.E.S.T. May Design Challenge May Showers Bring May Flowers?

Here in Winnipeg this year it seems that May showers are going to bring May flowers. We like to do everything quick and efficiently since we don't really have much of a spring before summer bursts in on the show.

So this month I challenge WEST members to design a new product with the theme: May Showers Bring May Flowers

What type of spring person are you?

Do you revel in the freshness of a sudden spring rain shower?

Or are you more likely to be found in the garden, planting and nurturing precious flowers?

Here's your chance to work on something that incorporates your spring personality whether it be water or sunshine!

Here's how it works. Check the ning and blog at the start of the month to get the inspiration topic. As you mull over what that particular idea means to you, jot down some notes in the discussion thread or leave a comment on the blog. Take pictures of your process and finished item and post them in the thread or in the Flickr group (with the tag W.E.S.T._dc). We would love to hear the story behind how you arrived at your finished object! I will blog the results of each month's challenge.

A few notes: Create something especially for the challenge. Entries for each month should be finished by the last day of the month. Vintage and supply sellers are welcome to participate, too, with a focus on artful photography and careful choice of item.

Happy designing!
