Call for entries: Use the Muse

The Use the Muse contest was created by Scarlett Lanson who has a regular column in Beadwork magazine and has won some prestigious contests herself. Scarlett’s goal was to create a competition for all types of beaders; stringers, bead weavers, and embroiderers, that had a shortened timeline and a big payoff. There are some very nice prizes including prizes for first through third place and ten category prizes, provided by Rainbows of Light and ArtBeads.com.
The cost for the entry kit is $30 plus $5 for shipping in the US and $10 for international entrants.
One important thing to note is that there are a limited number of kits available and they will likely be gone before the order deadline of June 27. So, if this sounds like something you would like to do or blog about please keep this in mind. Plus, the sooner you sign up, the more time you will have to work on your design before the July 18th entry deadline.
