Message me if you have any questions.

Sorry...This is a local swap. Dia de los Muertos... Day of the Dead (Spanish: DÃa de los Muertos) is a holiday celebrated in Mexico and by Mexican Americans living in the United States. The holiday focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died. The celebration occurs on November 2 in connection with the Catholic holidays of All Saints' Day (November 1) and All Souls' Day (November 2). Traditions connected with the holiday include building private altars honoring the deceased using sugar skulls, marigolds, and the favorite foods and beverages of the departed and visiting graves with these as gifts. Due to occurring shortly after Halloween, the Day of the Dead is sometimes thought to be a similar holiday, although the two actually have little in common. The Day of the Dead is a time of celebration,where partying is common. Now.... LETS GET STARTED!!!!!

I would like to join - but I need to note to whoever gets me I do not wear earnings - I am allergic to metal touching my ears! I celebrate this holiday - and hopefully will make it to the SF parade this year!

I have unpierced ears so no earrings for me please!

This is perfect... I love the communication. Feel free to join and make a reminder note that you have allergies, non pierced ears etc. I will see to it that your requests and concerns are honored.

Thank you, Mia

I have stretched lobes, so I can't wear regular earrings, but I would put a charm on my rear view mirror and one on my keychain or wear as a cool necklace.

I swear if I get flaked on AGAIN this is my last go at swap-bot. Even one I hosted with three people, all good ratings, the one I sent to flaked out and the one who I'm now supposed to angel hasn't sent mine yet either. YEAH RIGHT! What kind of a place is this?

PLEASE, if you get me and you are gonna flake, just tell the host so she can pass my info to the next guy who was supposed to send to you. Don't leave me hanging.

Wow, look at all the non earring wearers! I too DO NOT wear earrings. My ears are sensitive plus my hair is so long that you can't see the earrings. Please do not send them. I do love bracelets, necklaces, rings and brooches!
