I'm working on some entries for a beading contest. I'm entering 3 new and original pieces. The grand prize is an all expense paid trip to Bead Expo in Santa Fe, NM next year plus a $1500 shopping spree. The finalists will be posted on their website, where you can go to vote for your favorite (a la American Idol). I have no grand ideas, but I will let you know if anything comes of it!
Also, I will post pictures of what I'm entering once I find out if that is ok or not...
