Create n Carve - Fruit and Vegetable Round-Up, September 2011

I am excited to announce the entries for Create n Carve ~ Fruit and Vegetable Event, September 2011. I would like to say THANKS to all participants. Thank you for your interest, your support, creativity and willing to share your food crafts!

A special thanks to Karla Baumhover, a president of TempleOfThai for promoting the Event on Facebook pages.

I make the Round-Up post today because I will be out for a short trip to Japan. I am going to visit a big Carving Contest in Tokyo and learn carving art from the japanese teachers (read the trip report here). I will stay away of my blog from Sep 29 to Oct 6.

There are a few days left till the end of September. So you still have a chance to send me your fruit and vegetable crafts. I will add them to this page upon my arrival on the 6th of October, 2011. I accept any level  projects from beginers and advnaced artists. To learn something new visit my Fruit and Vegetable Carving Instructions and pick up a good knife.
