Saul Bell Design Award
|
Now in its ninth year, the Saul Bell Design Award continues to recognize artists whose work challenges traditional perceptions of jewelry design. Named for the founder of Rio Grande, the competition celebrates Saul's spirit and legacy by inviting jewelry artists and students to enter their most inspired creations. The industry abounds with stories of the opportunities and support Saul provided to young jewelers working to develop their skills. His quiet patience endeared him to all. And his good humor always brought a smile. It is our hope that Saul's influence continues to inspire and enlighten jewelers everywhere. |

Mmmm... Miyuki! Contest #4
|
Contest #4 invites you to combine any
Miyuki beads with the large (and still growing) world of C-Lon®
threads and beading cords. You may weave, stitch, string, crochet,
macrame or combine multiple techniques to create your entry. • The beads used in your entry must be made by Miyuki and the thread or cord must be C-Lon. Your piece can be made of mostly beads, a fiber piece that includes beads as accents or decoration, or anything in between. Entry suggestions include tapestry, jewelry, sculpture, or any other beaded creation. If you have questions about whether your idea is acceptable, send us an email and we'll be happy to discuss it.
This is the fourth in a series of contests Caravan Beads and the Miyuki Co. are sponsoring.
