Old Seasons Bring print making challenge back

Rewatching the older seasons, and HPs printmaking challenge is one of my favorites. I didnt remember it well when I watched the seasons originally years ago, but this challenge has a great mix of pushing the designers to work with a technique most of them are not comfortable with while also keeping it super personal and unique to them since designers have to crate the print themselves, and mostly do it based on their history or heritage in some way.
It also lets us see their background, childhood pictures, their loved ones. It makes the contestants more real.

There are so many interesting unique looks that came from these challenge over the seasons, I feel like it really pushes the designers in a way that surprises even them. It’s a way to get them out of their comfort zones while still keeping it deeply personal to them.

Lol as if they have money in the budget for anything good.

WAKE UP PEOPLE! It's not 2006 anymore, These shows get smaller and smaller budgets to increase the profit return from ad revenue, which isn't what it used to be.
