Great job with the voting guys and gals! Thank you for participating. I see we have an early favorite, but a lot could still happen. I don't know if you know or if this has been said, but everyone is allowed to change their vote right up till it's over.

This is too hard a question for my little tumbled brain to compute. After much anguishing and worry I chose #5. Did I win it? Beautiful job on all of those.

They are all great, I based my vote on the one that I would mostly proudly wear in public.

Whoo HOO!!! We have a winner! Looks like #2 Paul and John (@hookedonrocks and lpl ) were early leads that just kept growing. Congrats to a job well done.
Winning team may choose a tshirt or mug from the RTH shop. (You can get up with Tommy via PM about that.) As mentioned in the original rule post, for the first contest, the cabber will keep the piece (unless worked out otherwise). All postage to be picked up by whoever is doing the mailing.
Now for the reveal!
Second and third was back and forth and hotly contented. They were:
#4 miket and toiv0 for second. Beautiful piece and great job guys! Love the flame work.
#3 hummingbirdstones and nik turned in a stunning noreena piece with a lot of beautiful metal work for forth place.
5th place was tied between two teams.
#6 was a visual treat and a great entry for MsAli and roy . (Beautiful job, Alison. My personal fav.) |

Congratulations and great job on a beautiful work of art, @hookedonrocks and lpl!!! And also great job to everyone else who participated! This was a fantastic contest and put me down for the next one, if you would please. One more thing- thanks to Billy toiv0 for giving my cab some class. I loved his setting... |

miket opalpyrexia MsAli Thanks much! Your pieces were absolutely wonderful as well, as were the others. I’m really lucky that @hookedonrocks sent me a gorgeous stone to work with. Let’s play again and congratulations to all of the teams for a fun contest!

Congrats to all who entered, and a big "Way to go!" to Paul and John and Miket and toivO. This was really fun and I look forward to future competitions. There are many really talented people here on RTH and this is a great way to let them shine.

Congrats to all the super talented artists, and it was fun to watch from the stands also, especially since Tela kept us in suspense the whole time.

Congrats, @hookedonrocks and lpl on an amazing piece! I guess it says something when one's own husband votes for someone else. 
Kudos to the other teams, too. All of the entries were awesome. Lots of talented people on this forum and I'm happy to be able to hang out with y'all!

Is that heart shape the same as your usual heart shape?
