Summer Swap Invitation

(EDIT: This swap is now FULL! I've sent out confirmations to all of the players who I've received emails from. If you didn't get one, please let me know. I've received a lot of messages for this swap, and definitely could have missed one! Thanks. :)

I'm happy to announce a new swap to celebrate the start of SUMMER!

For this swap, you will create 6 wearable PENDANTS, and receive 6 back!
The theme is "JEWELS OF THE SEA"... think seashells, pearls, beautiful ocean colors, etc.
The pendants should all be similar and have a VINTAGE feel.
How you choose to CREATE the pendants is up to you... they can be soldered glass, made of recycled vintage jewelry, or maybe use a seashell as a base?!?!
Just do your BEST work, and make something you LOVE.
Pendants should NOT be too large, probably no bigger than 2" x 2".
Also, you are NOT required to send chains or necklaces for your pendants, unless you choose to.

Pendants will be DUE to me by July 1st.
Please include $5 for return Priority POSTAGE.
All players will also receive a Speckled Egg GOODIE BAG.

SWAP NOW CLOSED.

Hello Heather # 69,

You are a winner! You don't have an email, so head on back to my blog and click on the Etsy button. Once you click on a bracelet (as if you were purchasing it) there are pictures of other color palettes available or I can custom make you a bracelet.
I currently have the pink heart and aqua tray in stock, if you would like another color let me know. You are also welcome to select one of the vintage frames instead of the tray if you'd prefer that. Contact me via email with your information.
Congratulations and have a blessed day!
