A very special thanks to Artbeads.com for sponsoring our annual Bead Challenge "Now Go Make Something Great." Without them, we wouldn't have had all of those lovely purple beads for creating our entries. Thanks also to Brea Bead Works for making the grand prize over the top. They contributed many of the super beads for the grand prize jar! Again, thank you both so much for supporting our efforts and bringing the means to create to so many of our members!
