Application Day

Today was the day.

I did it.

I've always been a terrible, horrible procrastinator, but I've been trying to improve on that over the past few years. Knowing that the deadline for applications for the Strange Folk craft festival is coming up on the 30th, I didn't want to be the very last person to apply. So, I took a few more pictures of some of the creations I've made so far this year and posted them to my flickr account. I also uploaded some pictures of collages and some ACEO's that I created last year so that I would have a little more variety to show other than my recent cutesy stuff. I wish I could have finished a few more new projects to post there, but I didn't want to keep putting it off and possible end up making myself MISS the deadline. I crossed my fingers, said a little prayer to the craft-goddess, and submitted my application.

Then I found out that the deadline has been extended... until July 4th!

*rolls eyes*

I have a feeling that my flickr account has already been looked at for at least a preliminary decision. All I can do is hope that she (they?) look at it again before she makes her decision. Then I can have a few more things to show as far as my diversity for mixed media/altered art. Oh well. Whatever happens, happens.

I'm a little apprehensive as to the reasoning behind the application extension. Do you think that means that they haven't received as many entries as they hoped to have received by now? Or does it mean that they don't like the artwork by the crafters who applied? Or do they just want more entries to decide between... more of a variety? Hmmm...
