Charm Update


With the cutoff date for the charm swap supposed to be today, packages have been piling up here, awaiting to be sorted out and mailed back to everyone. There are some absolutely stunning and amazing works in these packages and it is so exciting to open each package and see what the creator has come up with for this swap! There are still a few packages being waited on before I can repackage all these beauties and send them on to everyone who is eagerly awaiting them, but I know they will be thrilled when they open and see all the wonderful creations!

Finally Finished!

I have finally finished my charms for the EMC charm swap- well, they've actually been finished for a while, but with the deadline being tomorrow I decided I should go ahead and add all the jumprings- so now they are officially finished!

There were just a few charms that ended up with gloriously colored patina, and I decided to leave those alone since I just couldn't bear to take off the fabulous colors. I did make a few extra charms, so now I just have to decide whether to keep one or two with the colors for myself or let them all go to new homes to be enjoyed by others.

EMC Charm Swap Countdown


With the deadline for the Etsy Metal Clay charm swap quickly approaching, the charms have started arriving. Since I volunteered to repackage all the charms and get them back out to everyone, I have the privilage of seeing everyone's creations- and it is so exciting to see them all! I find myself eagerly waiting for the mail every day, and with packages coming it's almost like Christmas-
