The LumberJocks Woodworking Awards Winter 2010 is just a month away. This year we are focusing on just one category. The goal is to highlight the creativity of all of our members (regardless of skill level) through the use of materials that are available to all woodworkers. And here it is:
Yin Yang - the dark and the light. Where would one be without the other? Create a project that uses colour (dark and light wood, stains, etc.) to convey how contrasts work together to make the whole. When you post your project describe the Yin Yang effect that you created.
Not everyone can be "the best" but everyone do try their best. For this reason The Wood Whisperer will offer three random winners the 6-month TWW Guild membership.

Okay, I'm never going to live down my chessboard comment. Tough crowd here, LOL. I was thinking just plain black and white checkered with no border, which I admit I've never made although I could have played chess on my cutting board I made in high school I suppose. That's a nice one by the way Gary, nicer than my limited imagination would allow or I wouldn't have made the comment.
haha Dale, we all have our crosses to bear around here-mine is when I painted a piece of walnut (for a snowman bottle holder) - yah, they won't let that one go either…

The use of dark and light wood is a key component of my work. There are several projects I have that qualify, but I think the bookcase will be my entry. Thanks for the great work with this website and the opportunities enter thematic contests.
I look forward to seeing all the entries in this particular contest.

First make sure that your entry is posted here on LJ as the project and then you just have to click on the green SUBMIT ENTRIES button on the Awards page.
Awards entry period is over and the staggering number of entries is beyond all my expectations. We ended up with 151 wonderful Yin Yang projects and now it's time to pick your top 5 list and cast your votes. I know it's not too easy
Note that if you submitted an Awards entry, you will notice that your project is not listed when you make your selections. (You are not allowed to vote for yourself.) So don't panic when you do not see your entry in the voting list - others can pick your entry without any problems.
Click on the VOTE AND WIN button on the Awards pages to cast your votes now. And don't forget that three lucky random voters will win a stylish LJ Shirt.

And here are the winners…

This was another great contest as evidenced by the number of entries. Congratulations to not only the winners but also to everyone who entered. They were all winners in my book.
