The Napoleon Challenge is a yearly event which tests our creative skills.

Participants each receive an identical packet of materials that they must use to create a unique piece of jewelry.  There is always a 'surprise' item included in the packet. By adding elements from their own studio, each artist creates a new work, but the packet materials should take 'center stage'.

When finished, participants must photograph their piece and send it via email to the challenge host.

All photos will then be uploaded to the forum for "viewer's choice" voting.

There is a $7.00 fee to help defray materials and mailing costs. Once all packets have been mailed out a photo of the packet contents will be posted online. The participants will have three weeks to make a piece of jewelry AND get a photo emailed in to the host.

Since there are a limited number of spaces, it is critical that all participants complete the challenge. Please give careful consideration to your schedule and any time commitments you may have. This challenge is only REALLY successful if everyone follows through!

To sign up, please respond in the sign up thread in the forum AND send payment via paypal . (be sure to include your address so you can receive your packet!) Due to time constraints, participants are limited to the mainland USA.
