Bead Swap! PLEASE SIGN UP ASAP BY PM-ING ME YOUR INFO IF YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE!!!!!!! « Back to Group Discussions

[UnderTheOldOakTree]

*********Last call on bead swap participants!  We only have four folks right now.  If anyone else is interested please PM me your address by 8AM EST tomorrow 8/29.********I'll PM everyone who signed up to participate the list tomorrow morning.

We had talked in another thread about having a due date club bead swap.

I'm willing to organize  it if folks are still interested.   If you would like to participate please pm your name and address to my by Sunday 8/26, so that I can send you each a list of participants.

We'd each be sending one bead to each person on that list.  Would it give folks enough time to get beads if we asked everyone to mail them by  September 7th?   That should give enough time for the beads to get out to folks early enough I think.

Are there other details here I should be thinking of but I'm forgetting?  Let me know if you think of anything!

So far we have the following folks signed up to participate:

Thanks for organizing this. I think your dates are fine. Some of us will be full term soon, so babies will be coming before we know it.

Thanks for organizing! I'll PM you now. I think the dates are fine. :-)

Here is a link to the august bead swap thread. A lot of people posted pics of their necklaces once they strung them - most added filler beads to make an entire necklace:

Looks so neat!

Thanks for sharing that thread Cindy!  I was in a hurry yesterday morning (and again this morning) but it helps to see how they organized themselves.  Also, I LOVED seeing their beautiful necklaces!  Very special!

It's a great idea, but I just started back to work for the new school year and I know I will never get my act together to do this.  :(  Have fun without me.  :)

I am unable to PM for some reason maybe I'm to new? Can you send me a message and maybe I can reply with my address. Thanks

[tipslady]

I got your message but am unable to respond until I have posted 10 times in the forums

Bumping this up one last time!  I'm going to send out the list to participants tomorrow morning, so if you want to participate, PM me your contact info ASAP!

I completely forgot about this. Bummer. I know everyone will enjoy this. Can't wait to see the final results. I hope you ladies will post some pics.

Hi,

Just wondering iif everyone has indeed mailed their beads already? I've only received Undertheoak's package. I know I'm way across the country from all of you though. Just trying to figure out if I should go ahead and make my necklace or hold out for the rest of the beads to come. It'd definitely be more fun to have the other beads. But I'd hate to go into labor and have nothing.
