So far, kits have gone out to over 10 different countries (with over 50 International Participants total!) and 39 different states.

- Arkansas
- Delaware
- Louisiana
- Mississippi
- Missouri

If you know a beader from one of these states, please encourage them to enter!

Chris Murphy with her comment:
I have entered the Use the Muse IV because I really had a blast with Use the Muse III. This contest stretched my talent and creativity in new directions and I can't wait to experiece it all again. I preordered my kit the minute it posted to the website back in December. I urge everyone to get in on the fun. This is the best contest ever. I am even more excited about the new categories which will open up the competition into new areas. I posted about the contest on my new blog adventuresofonebeadywoman@blogspot.com. You inspired me to start a blog so that I can tell everyone about the contest and keep my friends up to date on my progress in the beading world.
I also chose a winner randomly from the pool of Pre-Order Participants to receive a second kit FREE with which they may create an additional submission or gift to a friend. The winner for that drawing is:
Diane Alves of Grants Pass Oregon
