Hi De.

I think I have in the paperwork that winners will be announced on the 15th? Some pictures then too. After winners are announced, y'all are free to post your own pictures too if you want, and if you have them!

Very excited...I was hearing on the news yesterday about how the Space Station Crew did several space walks over the last several days to change out something (can't remember what it was) and it's really remarkable how courageous these astronauts are! Surely when these beads make it into space and back, it will give the recipients a wonderful boost!

Four days and counting...

Oh, Terri...I SO right there with you! Did you keep pictures of the beads you sent in? I sure hope so! I can hardly stand waiting to post photos of my submissions, win or lose! I had lots of fun making them...and learned a few things along the way!

Best of luck to all entries...

Ok, y'all. I just got done photographing all of the beads and putting them into a document for the judges. Tick tock, tick tock. Soon you will know.

I honestly think they're ALL great and kids would/will love every single one of them! There were only 54 beads entered from 16 different people. I think that's wonderful for the short notice we had to pull it together!

Edit: There were 24 artists.... Some submitted three, some submitted mulitple batches of three!

The great thing, Lori, is that it doesn't matter if your bead is selected or not, the kids are the real winners! And that's the way it should be!

De I took some pictures but not very good ones. They are good enough for my scrap book. I'm sure Lori took better pictures. I was down to the wire getting mine in the mail friday. I had lots more to send but not enough time to clean them.

Terri, yes I agree -- like waiting for Christmas morning lol, it's going to be so much fun seeing what everyone has sent in.

I can't help but think these beads will be huge hit with the kids too because it's such a fun topic -- and something that both boys and girls can enjoy.

Default Beads going into space...

Can I just say, I was feeling really glad that I wasn't a judge because I really could have picked them all. I'm not just saying that. I thought I dodged that bullet. But then I felt the same dilemma when I tabulated the juror's scores. As I placed each bead with the highest score onto the scale, it approached 8 oz. (our limit) and I kept wishing for the beads to get smaller and smaller so more could fit.

So, without blabbing any more, here are the bead artists that will have beads blasting into space on the May 14th shuttle:

Terri Fout (1)
Louise Ingram (3)
Kris Schaible (1)
Diana Rast (1)
Marcy Lamberson (4)
Judy Carlson (1)
Lauren Mazursky (1)
Rocio Bearer (4)
Katy Abbott (1)

THANK YOU to everyone that entered and to everyone who chatted it up for us. It is so hard to not be able to send them all but I do believe that the kids will love ALL of the beads that were entered!

In the coming days I will be blogging at the BOC blog and showing pictures, as well as some other fun things with the bead pictures. Feel free to show images of your our entries now!

Also, you see that some artists have more than one...which, normally I would say NO FAIR! and try to include one from everyone.

Please remember that one of our mottos at Beads of Courage is KIDS FIRST. Those artists had beads that the jurors felt the kids would really connect with but they were all spectacular!
