Felted Bead Swap!

International Swap! (Because the beads aren't anywhere near heavy.)

Hello there. This is my first swap, so be patient. =]

This swap is for hand-made felted beads. =]

The goal: Make 6 hand felted beads (which ever way you prefer to felt) and some jewelry findings (so your partner may turn those wonderful beads you made them into something wearable =]) to send to one partner. The felted beads can be any size, shape or color (be nice and check your partner's profile) as long as they ARE HAND-CRAFTED. No store-bought beads, please, unless it is to accompany the felted beads. We want to see your creative side!

Ideas for jewelry findings:

  • Embroidery Thread
  • Needles
  • Earring Hooks
  • Necklace / Bracelet closures
  • Beads
  • Ribbon

And the list goes on. (If your partner sends you ALL of these, please remember HEARTS are a great way to say thank you!)

Must have atleast a 4.0 rating or better. If you have any no sends, please contact me first before signing up and explain why. Newbies welcome, but must contact me first before signing up. Newbies MUST have a complete profile filled out, not just a few lines.

Happy Swapping!!

(Remember: Rate your partner fairly. If the beads and findings end up being something you dislike, don't rate them on that. Rate them on how quickly you recieved, the quality / time that was put into the items, etc. You get the idea. Be fair, people. Just be fair.)

Please say wether you have any allergies (metal allergies, I'm assuming, because you need wool to make the beads), please. =]
