My items at the produce show did really well. In the greetings card category, my Flower Fairies card came 2nd, my collage came 2nd in its class, my photo was 3rd and I was given Highly Commended for my glass painted jar. I didn't get a place for my painting, but as it was my first attempt and was a step-by-step project from a book, I was not expecting anything.<br />
