Wow... has it been a year since I posted!
Well, life does get in the way!

So, for anyone interested, here are my Fair entries for this year!

                                         Tatted Lily of the Valley necklace  2nd
                                           Recycled ..Halloween Candelabra   2nd

                                              Antique Child's thimble  3rd

The rest of these items did not get a ribbon.
The Melo creature sculpture...(my FAVORITE ENTRY!) though the judge gave it high praise,I was told he supposedly wasn't eligible to win a ribbon because though the rules stated Any Medium and did not specify the item had to be a painting, they only wanted paintings.
So, I wish they hadn't even judged it, because now, I cannot enter it in the Fair again in any category.
                                                         Melo

                                                  Cranberry bowl
                                                    Antique toy whistle
                                                Antique photo
                                                           Cicada photo
                                                               Dragonfly photo ...update.. I found out by reading the comment card... this actually won a 1st place! They didn't put a ribbon on it or prize money.. so I didn't know!
                                                           Rebel photo

I also entered this painting, but do to a snafu.. it didn't get entered. I can enter it next year.

                                                  Halloween Starry Night...

Hope you enjoyed seeing my creations!!
