We are mixing it up in the 2018 Bead Challenge!
Something a little different to inspire your creativity, with a lovely, basic collection of metal components, interesting Czech shaped beads and semi-precious hematite rounds added for extra shine and weight.
Let your imagination run wild as you bring a fabulous piece to life with your own choice of extra beads, colours, or findings using your own favourite techniques.
Design Rules
1. Your Challenge entry must be a single beaded item of your own original design, solely your own work.
2. All beads in the pack must be used and visible from the front of the design.
3. Some extra Challenge beads are available and can be purchased from The Bead Society of Victoria, Inc. (BSV).
4. You may add any, or as many beads, or other components of your own as you wish.
5. You cannot change or completely cover the Challenge kit beads in any way, e.g. painting or wire-wrapping. Entries that have any glued beads will not be accepted.
