Thanks Marlaine and Ann and good luck everyone :)
So much talent is represented here, it will be very difficult to choose just one! Congratulations to all of the entrants for a job well done, and thank you so much for the "eye candy"! Best wishes to each of you!
ReplyDeleteThis is some amazing collection of talent and beauty!!!
ReplyDeleteI am fretting over the notion of having to pick just one. They are each so beautiful and unique. I may just have to close my eyes and make like I am playing pin the tail on the donkey!
Wow, 46 entries, each more beautiful than the last...
ReplyDeleteIts always been a difficult to choose only one, but I can surely say this one takes the cake! It is AWESOME to see so many entries, makes me smile. =)
ReplyDeleteI love the tropics and these pieces surely convey that love! There is such variety and beauty in the beadwork!
ReplyDeleteI think that this is the most impressive collection of beadwork I've ever seen in the challenge. Congratulations to every one of you! You've all outdone yourselves!
ReplyDeletewow! 47 eh! that's incredible!
ReplyDeleteW-O-W! EBW's: You have outdone yourselves. What a stunning array of gorgeous pieces. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing what your team members can do with a little thread and some beads. This is a wonderful demonstration of the talent on your team. I voted, but it was the most difficult of your challenges to select my favorite. It's also great to see that so many of the pieces have sold already.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you all!
Sandy
ALL entries are so beautiful! EBW is a group of really talented beaders!!!
ReplyDeleteunbelievable. The Etsy Bead weavers keep growing in size and talent. I had a hard time picking out a favorite. Since I am partial to blues and greens, I went for #1. I also liked the ombre necklace that has sold already. It was a close #2.
ReplyDeleteOnce again a very tough decision, it's hard to pick just one.
ReplyDeleteWow - that was a hard decision! So many gorgeous pieces. You guys outdid yourselves this time!
ReplyDeleteI found my favorite right away. Stunning!!
ReplyDeletethere are some many beautiful pieces here! You all give me inspiration - maybe this lull time in my work is the right time for me to take up seedbeading!
