I chose this treasury to critique because of it's near perfection. With Peppermint Twist as the name and theme.  White and Red are the perfect colors. In this case the curator has done a good job of matching the shade of red, a very difficult color to match.  She balances the colors by putting the solid reds next to the whites or mixes of red and white which is pleasing to the eye.

The overall feel to the treasury is hot and sassy. The eye can't wait to see the next item. Nothing is overdone. There is something for everyone.

In judging this treasury I would deduct one point for the scarf, it is slightly off shade.  I wasn't wild about the Lampwork Glass bead Bracelet on the third row because it brought Black into the picture, but this is a team treasury and we are very limited when we are making team treasuries. With a General Treasury there is no limit to the shops you can draw from so I would have deducted a point for that bracelet with the black in it if this were a general treasury. 

The curator of this treasury did her job in promoting this treasury, her views were 76 which earned one point, and the clicks were 274 which earned her a whopping 5 points! That could be the difference between winning or losing.
