The 8th international Fashion Colorworks competition
Beadworkers all over the world have registered for this competition on the My Lovely Beads website since 2010. Preciosa Ornela was once again one of the main sponsors in several categories this year.

These colors have been selected according to the trending collections of the renowned Pantone Color Institute, which is an internationally recognised expert and provider of color systems. The competition is open to professionals and amateurs from all over the world. The entries must be original pieces of work by the participant, although collective work may also be presented.
