Monthly Challenge Sponsors

November Monthly Challenge Sponsors + Prizes

Need two great reasons to participate in this month’s challenge? These two prizes should get your creative gears turning. We’ll pick two winners this month from all the qualifying entries. Winners are chosen randomly from all the entries. Everyone has a chance to win – as long as you enter!

 

Andrew Thornton of Allegory Gallery creates handmade jewelry, jewelry components and unique art at his studio in Ligonier, Pennsylvania.

The above prize is valued over $50 and consists of Red Jasper, Saturn-cut Czech Glass, Brown Goldstone, Vintage Lucite, Earthenwood Ceramic Cat, Waxed Linen, Bugle Seed Beads, Silk, and Amethyst.

“We are a creative space that’s one part bead store, one part jewelry boutique, one part fine art gallery, and one part gift shop. The aim of Allegory Gallery is to promote artisan craftspeople, inspire the community to explore their creativity, and act as a focal point for classes and artistic education in the area.”

 

Andrew is donating in everything pictured above valued over $50. We are thrilled to have Allegory Gallery partnering with us again this month. We love supporting local bead shop owners who celebrate art beads!

Our second sponsor is Art Bead Scene founder Heather Powers of Humblebeads. Heather’s nature-inspired polymer clay beads are perfect for your next jewelry project. Heather’s prize is a $50 gift certificate to Humblebeads.com.
