SPRING BREAK is over!

With 36 entries submitted by 30 members of the Etsy BeadWeavers Street Team, the voters were the ones who were truly challenged to choose a single favorite. We had a whopping 338 votes cast for the Spring Break challenge; and we truly appreciate everyone who took the time to visit the blog, to visit the members' shops, and to vote.

Morwyn (AnotherCountry) took her inspiration from a public art project called The Trail of Painted Ponies and created Maia, just one member of her own trail of beaded ponies. Maia cantered into the Spring Break challenge in first place!

Congratulations also to the nine runners-up in the Spring Break challenge and to all the members who participated. :-)
