The Craftiest Bastard of 2009 is…

It is with great pleasure that I announce that the Craftiest Bastard of 2009, after thousands of votes is… My Paper Crane.

Heidi wins bragging rights and a $500 gift certificate to Urban Outfitters. Heidi not only makes giant plush donuts and toilets, but is one of the original Crafty Bastards. She is part of an elite group of folks who have done all 6 annual fairs!

The runners-up also walk away with something. Second place goes to b-kao, who wins Washington City Paper advertising ($500 value). And third place goes to Sardine Clothing Company, who wins a Crafty Bastards prize pack filled with Washington CityPaper goodies.

Thanks to everyone who voted! Now, here’s Sara with a giant My Paper Crane donut.
