Congratulations to Dorothy McGuinness for winning the 2010 Wally Award!

Dorothy’s beautiful “Contemporary Baskets” were woven with thinly sliced strips of painted YUPO and were big a hit with the judges. $1,000 and the coveted Wally Snow Globe, were her prizes. It just goes to show you that there are NO limits to what you can do on YUPO!

Congratulations also to Suzette Jimenez of Model Offset Printing for Humacao of Puerto Rico, for submitting the 2010 Viewers’ Choice award-winner, De Punta a Cabo, a 798-page hardbound book that used 104 lb YUPO Translucent paper to catalog one of the largest collections of machetes from the 19th and 20th centuries. The project was favored from among four other 2010 Wally Award runners-up and recognized by the online votes cast during a three-week voting period.

Yupo Corporation America was thrilled to display all the Wally 2010 entrants who so beautifully illustrated the versatility of YUPO Synthetic Papers for all types of different projects and applications.
