ANYTHING GOES!!!

No, the Etsy BeadWeavers are not putting on a Cole Porter musical number. Anything Goes is the theme for the June challenge, chosen by Wolf (DantesSpirit) after she won the Fire and Flowers challenge.

We've had some pretty challenging themes over the past few months: Stormy Weather (March), Fire and Flowers (April), and some of our members are still working on their designs for the Food Chain challenge for May. (Be sure to visit the EBW blog between May 7 and May 14 to vote for your favorite entry.)

The requirements for the Anything Goes challenge are a bit different than usual.
- Your entry should be what you consider your BEST piece.
- Your entry may be any theme, any style, any technique.
- Your entry, as always, must be beadwoven.
- Your entry must be newly created (between now and the listing deadline, June 5) and newly listed during the period of the challenge theme (May 15 through June 5).
- Only ONE entry per person!

Let's get started!

  4. I like this. I hate to miss a challenge so I will be back in on this for June. This will work out really well for me since I have decided to spend some time learning new techniques and experimenting - I don't know if I will come up with my best piece but I will try hard!

  6. Awesome idea for a challenge. I'd love to enter, but I've been disappointed in my results previously. There's a lot of freedom here, but I'm not sure my skill level is up to it.

    But I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with! :D

  10. The June Challenge looks like it is easier than previous challenges, but it's not. Every time I finish a piece I feel I could have done better...Still, we have a lot of freedom... Thanks Wolf.

  13. Nice to see written rules for a challenge. This is art, "Anything Goes" is exactly the right attitude for artists. I thought that having an open mind was part of being a real artist!

  19. I really had a hard time with this one. I have three favorites and it was very difficult to choose between them!!

  20. okay! I'm really late getting into the mood for this one, but I'm gonna do it, yes, I will! I think ;>)

    The food chain taxed my brain too much, but that's because it was an excellent challenge. This one is a challenge, also, because it's left up to us!

    happy beadweaving, y'all.
