Colouring Contest!
Share your creativity with us this winter and be in the chance to win one of several Inc Design Store Gift vouchers to spend!
This year's image is our iconic counterfront, where you'll be treated to the lovely inc store experience; a chat, the opportunity to choose your giftwrap, choose a ribbon and hear the stories of the pieces you've selected. Perhaps pick up a bunch of flowers or watch one be created. Beyond the window is a street view of our neighbouring Victorian Oamaru buildings, and near the counter and on display in the window are an array of beautifully made, curated items at inc. While you stand here you enjoy the tunes of our in-store playlist, and think how lovely the space smells too. You'll notice there's a blank frame for an artwork on the wall behind the counter, we invite you to exhibit there in the form of your entry, show us your creativity!
ENTRIES CLOSED - thanks everyone!
