make mine
SWEET

Chocolate is my weakness.  It always has been.  However, I have been on a caramel kick lately.  I’ll take hard caramel in the form of brittle or single-wrapped candies, but My current love is soft, ooey gooey caramel covered in dark chocolate.  I could eat my weight in the stuff.  This next call doesn’t want your caramel; they want your craft–hard or soft.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Greater Denton Arts Council (Denton, TX) for Materials: Hard & Soft, a national contemporary craft competition & exhibition.  This show is always gorgeous…
