Alright guys, it's time to get YOU involved in our 40th Anniversary celebration! Let's pay homage to our founding year - 1978 - by creating some groovy, throwback seventies inspired floral designs. We're leaving this Instagram Challenge pretty open-ended - be it a straight up old-school design you might find back then, or a modern day interpretation of the era, we want to see it all. It can also be any type of design - you're not limited to just centerpiece arrangements. So have fun some fun and take us back in time with your seventies designs!
Pro tip: The All Out Seventies Spotify playlist in the studio will most definitely help get those creative juices flowing, or those boogie feet moving at least!
October 8 through October 28, 2018, you can share your seventies throwback designs by tagging us, @MayeshWholesale, and using the hashtag #mayesh70sthrowback for a chance to win. We’ll choose weekly winners to receive a Mayesh apron and be featured on our Instagram page! Have fun, be creative, and good luck!
P.S. Be sure to review the rules below. A few details to point out: you can submit up to 10 pictures per entry period; if selected as a winner you have 24 hours to get us your address to receive your apron.
