Rules for TOHO Challenge Mini Kit Participants
- You are strongly encouraged to use at least some of each color in the 2024 palette to create one eye-catching piece.
- You are allowed to use more of the same TOHO, Starman Czech glass, and PRESTIGE Crystal beads that we have provided in the kit. As many as you wish, but they must be the exact color numbers on the list. TOHO seed beads should be the star of the show!
- No other seed beads, Czech beads, or crystal beads may be used!
- You can add one Focal item of your choice, such as one single pendant or cabochon. For example, a strand of stones (or any other beads not listed above) does not qualify as one item.
- You can use any clasp, findings, backing, threads, and fibers—but make sure they stay within the challenge color palette and are used sparingly.
Some of the featured designers are chosen from participating people who take the challenge themselves, so send us photos of your finished challenge design by September 15th 2024, by messaging us on the Team TOHO Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/TeamTOHO/ and email your photos to toho_bobbybead@yahoo.com or info@starmaninc.com.
