Entry: File:Lapis lazuli, a complex mineral mixture.jpg - Wikimedia Commons
My Entry fits the theme because: Lapis lazuli is a precious gem that is found in Egyptian art and jewelry, and it is also valued for its deep color. Around this time of year, there is actually plenty of water around the Nile (although it may not always be blue...). So, rich color, water, art work. This works, right?

Entry: Porphyry vase, known as Suger's eagle | Louvre Museum | Paris
My Entry fits the theme because: Porphyry is one of the most valuable stones of the ancient world. It's a deep purple color, and so was used only by royalty or Very Important People up until the Medici family decided to flaunt their wealth and use some over their tombs. Anyway, purple = royalty, and Egypt always reminds me of pharaohs, so royalty. Also, porphyry is only found in and around Egypt in a very few places in the world. This is representative of the season too on top of all this because not only does purple look wonderful with gold, but I'm sure for the right price now you could find gold and porphyry decorations...

My Entry fits the theme because: Wine is made in Milos, so that almost plum colour of wine and the grapes aswell as the green of the vines seems like it would be a great part of the culture of Milos.

My Entry fits the theme because: Milos is influenced mainly by the Greek and Roman traditions. Almost all pottery of those cultures featured black and red-brown colours. One of Milos' main exports is pottery, so I feel most of it would feature this colouring.

My Entry fits the theme because: Just a semi abstract piece I did with pens and watercolour. I think the greens, oranges, golds, and blues represent Egypt's colors well. I also had her wear the Star hat and literally EAT stars.

My Entry fits the theme because: The brilliant red and bright gold are representative of both the holidays and our dragon mascot's vibrant coloring. The dragon motif is also very appropriate, I think.

Entry: Artwork 1!
My Entry fits the theme because: I imagine the Merkheti celebrating most holidays in gold and jewel tones, and can you blame them? Jewels are awesome! I drew a scarab necklace, since scarabs are a popular inspiration for Egyptian jewelry.

My Entry fits the theme because: This is a tarot deck based off of stars and dragons (which are reptiles like the star eater). Since Merkhet believes the stars tell the fortune of their every day lives, I can see them using tarot decks during the winter festival to see what the new year will bring them. It is also blue which I believe between the star eater's delightful hair-do, and the deep blue of the night sky, represents their culture as a main color.

My Entry fits the theme because: Still with the thoughts of reading their lives with the power of the stars, I believe they might use the chance of dice to play games for fun. A way to still have outside forces tell them how to act, but in a fun way that they can just relax and enjoy themselves. Again, I call on the color blue which I believe represents them.

Is photoshopped stuffies count as artwork/personal craft?

Depends on how your using photoshop. I don't really think I can accept something you took offline and editted as your personal artwork.

Nah, I mean like if I were to create an ornament or something by drawing the base and such as well as scribbling in whatever into said base would that be considered such? I could print screen with the layers visible to show that it was done and not just opened into photoshop?

My Entry fits the theme because: I think since Milos makes wine, it would naturally end up in their festival color schemes, especially since a lot of the colors thought of with wine, i.e. purples, greens, burgundy, and champagne, go well in Holiday settings.

Entry: Milos Day 2-2 by Princess Eirian Hikari, on Flickr
My Entry fits the theme because: With pottery being made on Milos, I think these colors would work themselves in to Holiday color themes on Milos. Pottery tones might be used in swags of branches, with some of the blues and whites that have a very Greek feel worked among them in ornaments, candles, and/or garlands.
