I just heard about a beading/jewelry making contest that sounds like a lot of fun – the Use the Muse contest over at The Beader’s Muse blog.
Basically, anyone who wants to participate buys a kit with exactly the same beads, and they design a piece using some or all of the kit contents, plus anything from their stash that they want to add. The only rule is that they have to use “The Muse” which is a mystery component included in the kit that you don’t see until your kit arrives in the mail.
If that sounds like fun to you, here’s a direct link to the contest entry page. And if “fun” isn’t enough of a reason, check out the drool-worthy prizes you could win.
