June CGGE Challenge – Opposites Attract

June CGGE Challenge – Opposites Attract

Dark and Light, Straight and Curve, Wide and Narrow, Long and Short… You can’t have one without the other. There’s a reason why opposites attract. One brings out the best in the other. Show us what opposing elements you can put together to illustrate why opposites attract.
The challenge begins June 1 and ends at midnight on June 25th.
Each CGGE member may submit one entry only in stained, fused, lampworked or mosaic glass.
This entry must be listed for sale in their Etsy shop.
All entries are to be posted to the CGGE Challenge Group on Flickr.
Voting is open to all Etsy and Flickr members.
The winner will be featured on our CGGE front page.

Good Luck Everyone!
