I just wanted to tell everyone about this first-ever contest being held by Artbeads.com. This is sure to be a great one with substantial $$$$ for beads!!! Here's what Artbeads has to say:
"Artbeads is proud to announce our first ever ‘What Inspires You?’ jewelry contest! The theme of Artbeads.com’s first beading contest is to let beading artists share their inspiration with others. There are two categories, necklaces and other beaded designs for this contest. Voting will be open to the public to determine the top 3 winners in each category. A picture of the inspiration and design will allow the voters to see how each entry is represented.
The Grand Prize Winner in the Necklace and Beading contests will each receive a $500 Artbeads.com Gift Certificate, the 2nd Place winners will each receive a $250 Artbeads.com Gift Certificate and the 3rd Place winners will each receive a $100 Artbeads.com Gift Certificate.
This is a contest of originality, design, and vision. All entries MUST be an original design. At least 50% of the beads and components in a submitted entry must be purchased from Artbeads.com. Participants must upload one picture of their design and one of picture of their inspiration, such as you see below in the banners. This contest is open to beaders worldwide, aged 18 and older."
Here are examples of photo entries, one showing the inspiration and one showing the beaded work:
I hope you enter and win! Happy Beading!

Are you going to enter? I know you haven't been able to bead lately, but maybe you have a piece already made that will fit the bill? Good luck if you do, and thanks for the heads up.
