Another Beading Daily exclusive! I know that there's already a bunch of great on-going SWAPS there but I had been thinking about the above mentioned swaps for a while now, so I thought they can be added on the fun! Birthday swaps will be quarterly while Kris Kringle will be once a year... both works (or will work) almost the same. To be considered on the swaps, participants must comply on the following rules:
1. Must be an ACTIVE member of BD Forum.
2. Must have at least 200 posts upon due of sign-up date.
3. Members with less than 300 posts must post in the forum at least 7 times a week, not only in the Readers Showcase but also on Bead Chat, Non-Beading Discussion, etc. Unless there's an emergency of course... make sure to let the coordinator know what's going on! Members with 500+ posts are considered regulars and don't have to post as much.
4. Must be willing to spend approximately $10 worth of stash or gift for your partner... but if money is tight, stuffs from your own stash should be alright.
5. Must specify an individual color challenge for the Birthday Swap. Optional on the Kris Kringle.
6. Must have a "Wishlist" in their BD profile (or blog), preferably not exceeding $10. The "Wishlist" must not be changed in the duration of the swap, just in case your partner decided to buy your stash or gift early.
7. Must make at least one handmade jewelry for your partner. Always refer to your partner's profile for inspiration, i.e. colors, earrings, necklace, bracelet, jewelry set, etc.
8. If you don't want to ship overseas, email me privately so it can be arranged.
9. Important: Must replace a lost package. PERIOD. Meaning, no blaming on the postal service or whatsoever. It will be unfair for your partner if he/she will not receive a package, so make sure you buy insurance or delivery confirmation... unless you're willing to take the risk.
10. Must read updates with regards to this swaps. Changes will be posted once agreed and available.
11. It is encourage that the participants will open their packages on christmas day or on their birthdays!
12. These are secret swaps/exchanges, so do not post a photo of your handmade jewelry and gifts unless your partners received their packages already.
13. Must email me your name and adress.
14. For BD swap, please email me your birthday (no year is needed) and color challenge.
15. Color challenge for Kris Kringle is optional. If you have any, you can put it in your BD profile.
