Anyone who wishes to throw out some ideas for the December show case post them here:

More than likely we will have a poll to decide the final theme if tons of great ideas are thrown our way.

The December showcase will run Dec. 5th (but we don't have a theme yet lol)

This will still be early enough for peeps to get things in time for the Holidays and there will be no limit on prices.

Animals and flowers are always popular...
Or you could classify by recipient: for dad, for kids...
Or by medium: jewelry, metal art, glass, works on paper...
Or most popular EBSQ treasury choices...
Though it all seems quite limiting. I don't know, I was just throwing some ideas out.

How about a jewelry one? Or inspirational paintings or stocking stuffers or paintings that are 5x7 or smaller but originals only. Maybe a cat and dog lovers one

I like a lot of the ideas already listed. Anyone else giving price reductions for the holiday season?

What's on Sale?

EBSQ is doing a Christmas ornament show next month so if you're interested in pursuing that as your showcase, it would be a good promotion for the show in general.

Very good point.

Kinda like product placements in movies lol cross advertisting only without the jingles.........well unless of course someone uses bells!!!

I will post the poll sometime tomorrow (around 2-4 in afternoon CST me thinks) and it goes to a vote so if anyone has any further ideas to throw - get them in here now!

ETA: POLL CREATED!
