Description:

Hurrah! The Just Bead It Group's 1st Group Swap!

As the Just Bead It! Group has a number of members who focus on different areas of beading (embroidery, jewellery, beaded boxes, making beads) I felt it would be appropriate to run regular swaps that everyone could join and enjoy.

So, this swap is the first of many monthly swaps focussed on one particular, open theme and this month's theme is APRIL SHOWERS.

You are free to interpret this theme in any way - make it personal to you. You are also free to make whatever you like, but please be aware that by signing up for this swap you should also be open-minded about what you receive. (For instance, you may not normally wear jewellery, but you may receive a necklace or your partner may specialise in beading with wire work when you'd really prefer a beaded bag!) By being open-minded about what you might receive, you're also potentially learning to appreciate something new and may come to understand why other people love doing their particular form of beading.

Having said all that, if you love making bracelets but want to try bead collages for this swap, so be it. Be inspired!

You will need to be a member of the Just Bead It! Group to join this swap and will need to meet the entry requirements for the group both at sign up and before partners are allocated. Anyone who does not meet these requirements will be dropped from the swap.

Feel free to ask questions!

what is a beaded collage???

Ooh, now that's asking. In my head, it's a picture made of beads in different colours and sizes, but some folks also do bead embroidery on paper so you could also interpret it as being a picture that's been embellished with beading.
