Sk*rt Call for Editors Contest!



1/24 EDIT:
The nominations are coming in fast and furiously. And we LOVE it!! Keep them coming. Email us at sharethelove@sk-rt.com and tell us who you think would make a great sk*rt editor!

--------

It's non-stop excitement at sk*rt . Yesterday we announced the winner of the Clean Up sk*rt contest. And immediately after that we announced the new big deal that's happening now until the end of the month: sk*rt is putting out a Call for Editors!!


I'm so excited about this I can hardly stand it.
Here’s the scoop. We're in the middle of some major redesigns over at sk*rt — including the addition of an “editors’ picks” section. But we need a few more editors to share their excellent picks with the world.
We’re looking for smart, snappy, with-it women. We’re looking for women with special interest in sk*rt's nine categories and for generalists who have special interest in everything.

You know that friend you have that's always sending you the smartest links? The funniest videos? The coolest products? She would make an excellent sk*rt editor!

And just to make the finding-of-the-editors even more fun, we thought, why not have a cool contest?! And then we thought, heck yes, that’s a great idea! So here it is. The Call for Sk*rt Editors Contest. Anyone who nominates someone (or themselves) to be a new sk*rt editor is entered to win these two fantastic prizes:



1) HP Photosmart A826 Home Photo Center, valued at $199.99

This printer is made especially for all you mothers with a digital camera surgically attached to your hand. Get those photos off your computer and get them on display already!

Featuring a large 7.0-inch color touchscreen with stylus included, the Photosmart A826 allows users to edit, design and personalize photos with borders, text and creative graphics. With the 100-sheet internal paper tray, users can conveniently print up to 100 photos at a time. Print borderless 4 x 6- and 5 x 7-inch photos, holiday cards, wallets and panoramas from the convenience of home.




2) Philips’ Senseo Single Serve Coffee Machine, valued at $69.99

I'm actually not a coffee drinker and have personally never tried this, but I've been told more than once that these single serve coffee machines are better than sliced bread.

The Senseo® coffee pod system lets you savor a single serving of fresh gourmet coffee at the touch of a button, just the way you like it, whenever you like it. Designed by Philips, one of the world’s largest electronics companies, the Senseo® single serve brewing system brings great taste, in both design and coffee, to your kitchen. Mild pressure and a special spray head produce an optimally balanced coffee filtering process. No messy coffee grounds or filters. Enjoy a single serving of fresh gourmet coffee in under a minute.


That’s almost $275 of prizes. Simply for giving your pick(s) for sk*rt editors. How cool is that?
Anyone can nominate as many people as they’d like — and each nomination equals an entry. Email us with your nomination at sharethelove@sk-rt.com.

It’s simple. Just send us a name and the link to their web site or blog so we can get to know them. They don’t have a blog? Then let us know why they’d be the perfect pick.

I can't wait to see who you nominate!

Wow! I'm a huge fan, and would love to actually toss my hat in the ring for the Design & Crafts section. :)

I actually have some other friends who might be interested in some of the other categories, too, so I'm passing this along.

Fun!

I would have to say that Cicada rocks my world. Her blog is not a design blog, per se, but when she does blog about products, her own creations, etc. I'm always amazed. Her blog is singingcicada.blogspot.com and she's also guest blogging this week at petit elefant. Love her!

There is a gal at a blog called Everything Pink (www.everythingispink.blogspot.com) she knows all kinds of sewing and crafty stuff, but also has a HUGE network of prople and always lets us know about the newest a greatest products....

Also, I know that Jordan is on that list already, if not, I nominate her, and her friend from Emily Style (I'll find the link).

For cooking stuff, your sil at Lee Lou Ann and her favorite kitchen blog (which I am now obsessed with) Smitten Kitchen http://smittenkitchen.com/ .

I nominate our mutual friend Liz Maravilla. She has a great sense of style with a "steals and deals" sensibility. I think she would be a great contributor to sk*rt. I know I feel lucky to know her. :)

I would love to give it a go. I blog mostly about family, but I am a cosmetologist and love design, fashion, crafts, etc. I have thought about designing a blog around just make up and hair. Two of my faves. I am huge on critiquing others work, sometimes it's a curse, but I think it would be an asset for editing.
