DIY SHOWCASE & CONTEST

PUMPKIN PATCH DIY CONTEST & SHOWCASE

Welcome back to the pumpkin patch! We're so excited to see your pumpkin and pumpkin-adjacent DIY creations! This year, you will have all of the month of October to submit your DIY Showcase entries, and we will review your creations in a special post-Gramarye livestream after the October 31st submission deadline. 

​

Not a fan of gourds? Squash down those worries, because we're accepting any and all (appropriate) Halloween-related DIYs as well! So let the creative pumpkin juices flow, the possibilities are endless.
