There is something that makes it special. How about each person creates something based on their personal favorite. Show a photo of what you have and what you make. I like the concept of a more unified theme but that's just me. There's no reason to stick to a rigid theme, especially if it keeps people from participating. I like your idea Wendy. Anyone else?
