We had another fantastic bunch of submissions to our Classic Room Theme Design Contest! What a creative community of players Webkinz has!
While the final decision on the winning theme is up to the Webkinz creative team, we always take YOUR input into account before making our selection.
It wasn’t easy but we have selected 10 finalists that we think could make an amazing addition to the WShop in Classic. The winning theme will be added to the WShop later this year.
Check out the finalists below and watch Webkinz Newz later this week for your chance to vote for your favorite!
Fire Truck
I would really love the kinzville academy one :)
Same.
gatsby looks nice but im a sucker for pastels
same :)
half of the chosen entries did not follow the rules to submit ONLY a drawing of a bed. disappointing that ganz would choose to reward them…
We don’t require that the additional items be illustrated but it is not a requirement to keep it text only
Nowhere do we say that they are only supposed to draw a bed. We do say
‘There are THREE things you need to include with your entry:
- Theme Name
- 1 drawing of a BED for your room theme
- list of 3 other items that will be a part of the theme’
and ‘ONLY submit one entry per Room Theme’.
Hope that helps! :)
Hey Sally and Mandy, Did I miss this contest and what’s the next contest going to be? I hope the next contest is The Emoji one. We need a Emoji contest because I have a great idea of a emoji, So we need to have a emoji contest.
Sally and Mandy, Thank you for taking the time to read and reply. Respectfully, it’s upsetting that you would copy the contest rules and leave out the part that specifically asks for only one drawing.
“A few things to remember…
You can enter as many different Room Themes as you want, but please remember – only one drawing of a BED per theme!”
Please consider how hard folks work on their submissions. Many artists, including myself, would have loved to include drawings of other items to fully showcase our idea but restrained because of the rules. In the future, I hope Ganz will consider clear rules and an accountable selection committee.
As long as only one bed was included per drawing, the rules are still satisfied. None of the entries had multiple beds.
I’m so honored that Cozy Crochet is in the top ten! There are so many fantastic designs this time around and I would be happy with any of these. I tried to make Cozy Crochet something that would compliment some of the existing themes (I love to mix and match) but also hopefully have some crafty elements as well. As far as a favorite, I simply cannot choose. Each theme has an idea or element that I would absolutely use in my Webkinz mansion. I can’t wait to find out what new theme wins and congratulations to all of the finalists! Thank you to all as well who took the time to design some lovely room themes.
Congrats redrazzles! Your theme is SO unique and fun. I love creative and crafty things and your design is absolutely stellar!
Bayou princess
There are some REALLY nice choices here! That COWgirl one is a winner for sure. I like the First Responder one is as well. If we get the Dino one, I will be re-making Patrick’s room as this pet is named for my late brother who was studying to be a paleontologist.
I love the eclectic theme so much. The colors are awesome and i can see how items will go with a lot of other themes.
I would be really excited to see the hand chair! If this theme wins I would be interested to start mixing it with some of the retro themes or possibly Friendly Froggy.
They are all awesome themes. I see a lot of people liking the Gatsby theme, which is beautiful! But I hope people also see the potential for the others, like the First Responders theme by Frenchgirl. I see yellow tape on the walls, a lamp with the rotating red light, maybe a sofa to look like an ambulance or fireman’s waterslide, or chest of drawers or mirror to look like a policeman’s badge. Congratulations to everyone, any one of these themes is a winner!
I agree with you! All of these themes are great but as I decide where to place my vote I will definitely be keeping in mind how great some of these would be to mix and match. Each theme certainly has lots of potential!
bayou princess. Though the kinzville bunks great also,
