500 Handbags Call for Entries: EXTENDED DEADLINE

I think there might be one or two purse-makers that read this blog. *wink* In case you didn't know, the deadline for the upcoming Lark Publishing book has been extended. If you make out-of-this-world purses, then you should submit! Here's some more info:

Lark Books seeks images of striking, stylish, and out-of-the-ordinary handbags for a juried collection of work from artists, makers, and designers from around the globe for the upcoming book 500 Handbags. Professional fashion designer Jay McCarroll, winner of Bravo's debut season of the hit show Project Runway, will be jurying images submitted for this book. A diverse assortment of bags will be considered—from teeny evening clutches to rugged bags designed for men—with one-of-a-kind, handmade, and/or limited edition pieces strongly preferred. A wide range of materials, techniques, and looks are desired. To be released in January 2009, this book aims to showcase a fabulous, fun, and funky collection that will inspire amateur crafters, professional designers, and everyone in between.

To be considered for inclusion, please submit high-quality transparencies, slides, or digital images with entry forms. There is no entry fee. We have extended our original deadline; entries must be postmarked by October 15, 2007.

Guidelines & entry forms can also be found on Lark's web site.
