Description:
Since my last bead swap was so popular, I figured I'd try another. So, this swap is for beads. For when you splurge a little too much and end up buying beads you never use. Beads of any kind, color, shape, or size. Plastic, glass, gem, or clay. Colorful, dull, white, or sparkly. Swap about $10-$15 worth of beads with your partner (not including shipping). You can buy some if you like, but using your collection is also wonderful. Try to send beads that are nice, but that may not be your style or something you just haven't been able to use. Don't send something horrendous that will sit in someone else's box forever as well. That's not the point. You can also send charms or other little things that can be used for jewelry, etc. For example, bells. Be random, unique, and have fun. Anyone who has a rating of 2 or lower will be banned from this swap. Please, only sign up if you can send something out. Thanks and Happy swapping! :D (If you need to contact me, send a message. I'm not always able to view the discussions here. Thanks.)

Just curious, should we give a mixture of some various larger beads, and then a larger quantitiy of smaller... perhaps thinking along the lines of using in one project? Or will people have color preferences listed?! I have never done one of these before!

Thanks!

That would be good. I tend to send some nice, large beads or specialty ones and then a few packages of seed beads or something along that line. Whatever you thing will work.

I'm into cracy quilting and would love to recieve beads I can sew onto my projects. Especialy beads looking like flowers and leaves. For my partner I would love to get a wish-list. At least a choice of colour. I will do my best to please my partner.

I particularly love glass ( any color), silver, purple, green, but am open to any colors. I don't use the tiny seed beads but the medium and bigger ones are great. Mostly use beads for earrings. Thanks in advance to whoever sends to me!
