...........

thanks so very much for all of your fantastic nominations in the 2011 Handmade Olympics. what a wonderful celebration of handmade!
without further ado, i'm thrilled to present our judges' shortlist for event #6! 

....................

thanks so much to our wonderful judge for this event, Alison Feldmann (aka TeenAngster) : the cyber-world's go-to-source for all things eclectic & marvelously curious!   

here's what our judge had to say about the nominations: Vintage is near and dear to my heart, and I'm quite enamored of any shop or blog that recognizes the worth of an old quilt, a worn out toy or a chipped trunk. As such, this was a hard category to judge! The shops and blogs I've chosen are well curated, cohesive, clever, and photographed and styled to perfection. Creating a concept that can umbrella all manner of antiques and vintage is no easy feat, but I was mightily impressed by these ladies and gentlemen. Bravo!
