Description:
This swap is for all of us beaders! I'm looking to see what others are doing! We will swap 2 pairs of earrings to 2 partners. Have to have been made by you, not profile based (unless you want to) other than allergy considerations (please don't ask for gold or something for your allergies). I'm not specifying types of beads because I have seen some really cool ones with all kinds of beads, just make sure it's something you are proud of. The idea is to share what we're doing, not just get rid of stuff. It's my first swap so I'll try to cover everything but feel free to let me know what I didn't. Newbies welcome, send me a note if you have ones or 3s and we'll talk. I will angel but if you flake I will ban from all future swaps and you will incur very bad karma.

do you think maybe specifying no plastic beads would be a good idea? just a thought...so that everyone uses similar quality.

nmterrier 12/21/2009 #

I was thinking about that when I set this up but I don't want to limit anyones creativity. I've seen some really nice stuff with vintage plastics. I am hoping that people will use this as an opportunity to show off and send accordingly. Do y'all think that makes sense or do you think people will be jerky?

is this bead only? or can we use different materials including beads?

Hey Kennedynic - I don't see why you couldn't do whatever types of materials you are using. Set it primarily for beaders but if you are doing something along those lines that you want to show off it sounds fine with me.

hi everyone! I just signed up today and this is my first swap, I'm a jewelry person so I figure I'll start with something I know and go from there...I'm so excited, this sounds like so much fun. can't wait!

fromheathershands - so glad to have you aboard, make something you're really proud of!

Are we supposed to send one pair each to two partners, or two to each partner ... ie, is the total two pairs or four pairs? The wording isn't entirely clear. :-)

Two pairs to each of your two partners. Four pain in total.

nmterrier 01/10/2010 #

Pairs, not pain. (one would hope, at least)

Apologies. My earrings will be sent out late due to me being slack and a public holiday here in Australia :( My biggest apologies!
