Congratulations KarenO, winning bidder for the Halloween Wreath put up on Ebay. Fellow Guild Member and pal of Denise, who organized this group effort. Once these things are seen in person, they got to be owned. All proceeds go to the Charitable Programs for MSATClayArt. Thank you KarenO, it feels good to keep it in the family and Denise can see it when ever she wants. ;-)

A dark grapevine wreath was used for the base. I wrapped it with fabric spider webs so there would be light and dark places to place the individual pieces. It was wonderful to open the boxes each day as they arrived to see the newest creations. As the treasures arrived I scanned each person’s individually, and then edited the pictures. We had a final total of 15 participants. The wreath was a good project to call out some of our new clayers who hadn’t shown their work before, and it brought out some of our quiet clayers too. The pressure was on at the last as I hurried to get all the pieces attached and left spaces for the late arrivals. As an online guild project, this wreath was a little tricky to finish by the deadline. It was up to me get the pictures and do the final assembly.

These little guys are NOT on the wreath. They were lost in the mail on their way to join the others. If you believed in such things, you could say that their spirits haunt the wreath.
