The 2010 Ugly Necklace Competition is now accepting entries for the 8th annual event. This quirky competition brings contestants from all over to compare their interesting (hideous) creations on the Land of Odds(.com) website.
The competition starts on September 15th, 2009 and runs until the entry deadline of March 15th, 2010 (kind of long for an ugly necklace competition, but okay).
The concept of creating something ugly is a very interesting thought which makes these necklaces twice as innovative and just plain fun to look at!
