for those of you who might have missed this: (and...we're adding a photo album to the sidebar of the entries we receive, so check them out!)
We are excited to kick off Breast Cancer Awareness Month with our Altered Bra contest for consumers! We recently hosted an altered bra contest for our retailers at CHA and it was so much fun that we decided to host one for consumers as well! The rules are simple. All you need to do is design/alter a bra, photograph it and email the image to schristensen@heartandhome.com by October 27 at midnight PST (please keep file sizes under 500kb). There are no restrictions orguidelines on what brand or types of products you need to use in your entries. Entries will be posted in a gallery on the Melissa Frances blog. The contest will be judged by Melissa, who will decide on the winning bras. Please note that all entry images will become the property of Melissa Frances to use in further promotional materials without compensation.
We are offering three prizes for this contest! First place: $200 of MF product, second place: $100 of MF product, and 3rd place: $50 of MF product.
Those are some really cool bras.

I sent an email on Saturday with my submission to the altered bra contest. Just wanted to make sure you got it? :)

Who'd have thought that an altered bra could be so beautiful. Thanks for bringing that fact to our attention, Melissa!

Sent my entry in and had a great time working on this project. Tomorrow I am off to a MF workshop and can't wait to show everyone there what we have been up to.
Thanks for sponsoring the event.

wondering if we can do more than 1, I finished one, and then of course had another idea. Would this be okay? if not I will just send the one I have. Thanks Tina
