Dare To Design Contest-Shabby Apple


OK, I'm not entering this contest but, as a huge fan of shows like Project Runway, I wanted to put this out there for other people to get a chance!


Shabby Apple is offering an AMAZING contest in which 15 top designers will be chosen and featured on their website. Voters will then have a chance to decide what their favorite is.


This was taken from email I received:
