Being green - Tutorials

Less than 2 months to go until Christmas. Time to think about gifts and decorations for the holidays.
And why not making a gift to Mother Earth by making some gifts made of recycled materials to your beloved ones?



To give you an incentive, I want to turn this into a little challenge with a reward.

Challenge 1:
Make a gift or decoration out of recycled materials for christmas.
Rules:
2 deviations per DAmember.
Works must be new, uploaded earliest on November 1st into the Artisan crafts gallery or Traditional Art - Scultpure gallery.
Show me a picture of the materials you used (you can either make a before/after picture or link back to the materials photo. Only the actually work will be consider, so you can technically upload 4 pictures: 2 with the materials, 2 with the finished works.)
 
Challenge 2:
You might not have the materials right now, but an awesome idea of how to recycle something. Draw a concept of it with some explanations.
Rules:
1 deviant per DAmember.
Work must be new, uploaded earliest on November 1st. You can upload it into you Scrap gallery.

Deadline:
December 24th, 2012 (for both challenges)
Send me the link to your works via note.

Rewards:

I'm currently collecting points. The collected points at the end of the challenge are going to be distributed like the following:
+3 for the 1st place, +2 for the 2nd place, +1 for the 3rd place and 1st place of challenge 2, +3 for the 1st place, +2 for the 2nd place,...
So the more points there are, the more you can win

And I'm currently the only judge. If you want to be a judge as well, feel free to note me.
