February Team Challenge: "Everyday Heroes"


Welcome to RNEST's February Team Challenge! 
The theme for this month was 
"Everyday Heroes" 

It doesn't take a cape, superpowers, or a secret identity to make a hero.  There are Everyday Heroes all around us!

(This month's theme was dedicated to the memory of the West Webster Fire Fighters who were killed on December 24th.  Our prayers and good thoughts go out to their families and all those affected by the tragedy.)

Earlier this month, we asked our RNEST members to get creative and make items representing an interpretation of "Everyday Heroes"...and now YOU, our loyal blog readers, get to pick the winner!  Here's the list of our contestants!


Buddha in Blue Recycled Spoon Pendant by SunshyneSilverwear



Angel Wings Skinny Scarf by KeenTied



I Can Conquer The World... 8x10 Print by PapersaurusCreative



Guardian Angel Earrings by PandaWear



Susan B Anthony - Hand Carved Rubber Stamp by Jackbear



Community Rings Earrings by SunshineOnWater



West Webster Fire Department Memorial - Pysanky Ukrainian Easter Egg by JustEggsquisite



Cast your vote for your favorite on the poll in the upper, right corner of the blog! 
(Deadline to vote is by midnight on Wednesday, February 13th)

The artist whose item receives the most votes gets their Etsy Mini on the top spot on the blog!
