The annual Fiddler’s Jamboree Craft Awards were presented Saturday
Phillip Howard of Sparta received the “Best of Show” award for his display of art work and furnishings crafted from repurposed tailgates, truck cabs, pallets, house doors, benches, etc.
The “Best Newcomer” Award went to Rachel Moore of Pleasantview for her display of repurposed old books. “I take the covers off and I re-bind them with new paper. You can use them as sketch books, journals or anything you wish. You are only limited by your imagination. I also make paper flowers. I take pages from books and make forever flower bouquets,” said Moore.
Roger Pfalzgraf of Staunton, Illinois received the “Best Display” award for his three string guitars made mainly from cigar boxes, bed pans, oil cans, and lunch boxes.
The awards were presented by Emma Adkins, the Fiddler’s Jamboree Director of Crafts along with Olivia Norton and Ellie Adkins.
