i didn't think of entering until recently, but the deadline has passed. so now i'm wondering what the scoop is on the NEXT one?

Good question...I'd like to know also.

This year, the deadline for sending in your slides, application and fee was April 10th. Last year it was April 11th. The year before that, 2004, it was March 15th.

I would guess the beginning of April 2007. They must allow the time to judge the slides and the finished work for the final decision, prior to the start of the Bead & Button Show. So it could very well be depending on the date of the show.

About a month or so after the show ends, they post the information for the next B&B Show, which will include the info for the deadline of the Bead Dreams 2007 Contest.

Glad to hear you will be entering. Your work truly something to be shared!

Erin

thank you erin. you must know that you have helped me prepare myself mentally for the challenge with your always-inspiring work and words.

Thanks for the consolidated info Erin!

I have missed the deadline 3 yrs in a row (my fault).

So, if I start soon and give myself a February deadline...I could enter!

Just musing...I wonder how many initial entries B&B gets for this contest - ballpark figure? This question is not directed to anyone in particular, but if a moderator could jump in with a number...

Just curious,
Kim

thanx erin,
I have several pieces i think i will enter.
