Congratulations to the August Design Challenge winners. Kathryn Bolen and Russ & Dhea Powers tied for first place with 97 votes each.

I hope you all enjoy seeing the Challenge pieces as much as I have. I was once again blown away with all the beautiful treasures you all created. Here are all the designs one more time. I will post details about the charity auction as I get them. I think I have forwarded the pictures to Valerie for the auction. If you need her contact info, please email me.

Thank you to all the jewelry designer's who took part on my August Design Challenge and to all of you who made special creations for the charity auction. I am not sure yet when the charity auction will take place but will let you know when I have the details.

I hope you enjoy all seeing the Challenge pieces as much as I have. I was once again blown away with all the beautiful treasures you all created. Voting poll will be after the last pictures at the bottom of this post. Last month it was slow to load off and on. Voting will be open until Tuesday morning and then winner will be announced.
