CGOA Design Contest Winner!
Guess what? I won 3rd place in the Home Décor category. Here is the list of winners:

My entry was called “VictoriAfricana Footstool.” I chose this name because the footstool combines a traditionally-styled stool and fringe with an African-inspired motif and color scheme. I also chose to name it VictoriAfricana because it made me think of Queen Victoria, the style of the Victorian period, and the stories about her alleged African ancestry through her grandmother Queen Charlotte. I think the two different types of elements cause a pleasant friction.
I was so happy when I heard I had won. Thank you to all the judges.
