Chicken Jewelry contest, photos of the day
Fifi the hen had a great time judging the Chicken Jewelry contest at Panopolie on Friday. She was so well behaved (mostly!) and tolerated a lot of love and attention from the various folks who were there to see the judging. I will post the contest jewelry in a separate blog entry, be sure to vote for your favorite!
Fifi tried on one of the entries (a delicate Hen Crown!)
The Paparazzi went wild!
The esteemed judge had difficulty 'pecking' a winner. She was overwhelmed by the level of expression and craft technique in the entries. And all the baked goods the crowd was eating.
Fifi enjoyed watching the Breakfast and Beads crowd.
Fifi even cleaned up after Breakfast and Beads! Finally she had some baked goods...Oh, my daughter, Cleo, heard me saying that the chicken would 'peck' the winner. "Shouldn't she peck the loser?" was the question...good point!

New Magazine - Handcrafted Jewelry
This new magazine is coming from Interweave in August. I have two projects in the magazine and think it is going to be very popular with our customers. The focus will be on mixed-media jewelry, with articles on how to use everything from glues to wood to mica. The whole idea behind the magazine is to present projects for designers who create without defining their work by a single medium. I am not sure if this is the final cover or not...we'll have to see in August, I guess!
