What does one do while being in “isolation”, which is this week’s blog group’s topic? Come up with a weekly social media challenge, of course!
It’s a challenging time for all of us, that’s for sure. I have my good days, and then I have the days where I just want to curl up in bed listening to the stories told in some of my favorite country artists music. There is no right or wrong in how we tackle each day during this pandemic – we are aloud to “feel”.
This week my goal is to bring smiles! I started up the Pant the Town Stay at Home With Your Pets Challenge, with a little weekly incentive “prize” for the winner. On Sundays I will post the weekly prize. This week it’s a beautiful drawing a local artist donated for the contest. She lives in Bradford, MA, and her business is Gayle’s Art Room. Here is a picture:

On Monday mornings, the challenge will be announced on Facebook and Instagram. This week’s topic is a fun one! It’s “Who Wore It Best (on their head)”. People will have the week to photograph the topic, using their cell phone, camera, anything available that takes pictures 🙂 This week’s criteria I will be judging is style, creativity, and mood. They must make their post “public” and use the hashtag, #pttstayathome so I can search the photos. Here is Kota’s take this week, as she is my “stay at home” model 🙂


Each week I will be choosing a “guest judge” to make things fair. This week my long time friend, Jason, will be helping to choose the winning image. He and I worked for the airlines and we traveled the world together for years. I took this picture a few years back with his pup, Tucker. Jason is currently enjoying the snow in VT with his 2 Border Collies, Sheltie, and awesome husband, Dave.

Each week’s winner will be announced on Saturday morning, whenever I wake up and have my coffee in hand. Please consider entering! Check out Pant the Town Photography on Facebook and Instagram and play along. Also, if you’d like to be a weekly “judge”, please let me know! I will introduce you on social media.
Check out some more takes on this week’s topic of “Isolation” by following along our blog circle. Next up is Pawparazzi Pet and Animal Photography presented by Shae Pepper Photography. Have a great weekend and hope to see you in the PTT Stay at Home With Your Pets Challenge!
What a fun way to lift people’s spirits! I get the good days and bad days part as well. Nicely done, Kota! If you find yourself in need of judges, I’d love to help out. ❤️
Dig the photo of Kota with the cabbie hat. Great idea on the “Pant the Town Stay at Home Pets Challenge” with guest judge each week including a prize for incentive to participate.
What a fun challenge. I love ‘Red Carpet Style’ and ‘Cabbie Gal’
What a fun idea! And Kota looks fantastic with red hair. That style really suits her.
Love, love, love your challange! What great way to have fun and spread smiles, all from the safe sanctuary of home.
Gotta love that red wig! Great idea on the challenge! I am so tired of this ‘new life’.
Luv it – great idea! All the pics were great – all winners!
Kota looks…so happy?… to be wearing a wig? LOL What a terrific idea Darlene, very creative and a break from the monotony. I hope it’s a great success for you in that everyone has fun (and discovers your beautiful work!). And please, pick me, pick me to be a judge if you run out of them! 🙂
This is such a great idea! Love it!
