2008  -  DECEMBER HOLIDAY PARTY

TREE RAFFLE

Go Back to Scrapbook Index       Go Back to Announcements

The focal point of the December Meeting / Holiday Party is the Tree Raffle.  Members bring beads to decorate the tree and for every bead they receive  raffle tickets2 tickets.   In addition tickets can be purchased.  This year the tree was fabulous because there were so many beads contributed and because the beads were outstanding.  As a bead making community we are growing in our skills and creativity and it shows as the years pass and the trees get better and better.

A beautiful photo taken by Andrew Lunde of the tree with close-ups of individual beads below taken by Andrew and the Web Mama.  We have been able to identify some of the bead artists - if you can identify other artists, please let the Web Mama know by sending her an email.

At the bottom of the page you will see who was the lucky winner of the tree.

Last but not least the tree topper - a beautiful angel made by Andrea Winkler.
 After all the beads had been hung on the tree, and all the tickets mixed up in the barrel, one ticket was selected.  The number was read aloud and Kevin Masufis checked to see if he had the winning ticket.
And the winner was MARCY LAMBERSON !!!   She has participated in seven of these tree raffles and was thrilled to win.  And we were all so happy for her because of all that Marcy does for the Southern Flames group.
