Threadless’s The Woods design contest

You might want to get wild for Threadless‘s new The Woods design competition. Here’s what they’re looking for…

Can’t see the forest for the trees? Skip merrily into the woods for this forest-themed challenge. Draw woods filled with coniferous or deciduous trees that provide shade, shelter, and so much more to their environment. Celebrate the humble beech or oak, maple or fir. Create designs featuring typography or scenes of flourishing forests. Robert Frost said it best in his beloved poem, “The woods are lovely, dark and deep.” Make this your own ode to the woods—grab your sketchbook, climb a tree, and design away!

This contest opens to entries on February 14th, 2020 and ends on February 28th. One winner will earn $1000 cash and a $500 Threadless gift code. Also, all designers printed will earn up to $7 per item sold (learn more about Threadless artist payments).

    Do your best and enter it! Most duplication of concepts isn’t due to stealing, it’s generally that multiple people had the same thought process. As much as it can suck to see someone else design your idea better than you did it, I can say from experience that it feels much worse when you see it done by someone else and your version is still just a sketch or idea, never finished.
