Drumroll, please . . .

And the winner of the Etsy BeadWeavers RED challenge is

Fennel Skellyman's Fire Garden Necklace



Fennel could not be here to receive his reward (he gets to pick the theme for the March challenge) but assures us that being
(a) the first male member of Etsy BeadWeavers and
(b) a winner with his first entry into an EBW challenge
will not go to his ego ;)

***APPLAUSE***
***STANDING OVATION***
