Door decorating and all that jazz...

The results are in and Judges Choice 2008 is.... my office door! In case you have no idea what I'm talking about, I posted a few weeks back about my office's holiday door decorating contest. Judging was yesterday, and I wanted to share some pictures of my competition.

The theme of my door was "Random Acts of Kindness". I had 24 cards, shaped into a christmas tree, that listed different ways to practice acts of kindness. The wreath is, of course, my infamous peppermint wreath (I'll never look at it the same after that awful burn!). I also made two advent candy calendars and hung them on the sides of my door. I'm really pleased with how it turned out, and I was very excited to win!



I won a great goody bag, with several candles and a bunch of bath products. So there was a prize after all!

Here's the door that received an Honorable Mention. The sign says "Winter Wonderland".


My co-worker is obsessed with teen idols from the 1970's, and her door shows it. The sign reads "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree With My Favorite Teen Idols From The 1970's". The pictures are of Donny Osmond, Andy Gibb, John Travolta, etc.


This was my lone male co-worker's door. He won "Most Creative" door.

Here's the boss's door. That bunch of greenery is supposed to be mistletoe, and the hearts are lips. The words read "I Saw Mommy Kissin'"...

One of my personal favorites. The snowman came from the Dollar Tree! How cute is he?

We called this the "Kitty Diva" door. My co-worker got the adorable Hello Kitty ornaments and decor from Target.

My co-worker, Mindy, won "Best Handmade" door.

What do you think? Which is your favorite? Weigh in and tell me who you would have chosen (and it is perfectly ok if it isn't me!).

Well, yours, of course, but that snowman is pretty dang cute too.

Hey, I keep forgetting to ask you. How do you get your blog posts that you date ahead (like this one) to post now instead of waiting until that date? I can't figure it out.

You guys did AWESOME!!!! Since I grew up in the 70's I like the 70's one, but all of them are soooo creative. I think that was a great idea. Hope your burn is better!

All the doors look great! I can tell alot of thought went into some of them and I'm so glad you took pictures to share with us. I really liked yours and the meaning behind it. The Christmas Tree one really caught my eye, too. Looks like a right run place to work at times!
