Vampire Charms- Handmade

I love vampires so I thought I would combine this with a favourite pastime of mine, making charms.

The aim of this swap is to create 5 vampire charms for 1 partner. That way, we should end up with a wonderful variety of charms for our bracelet. Anything goes as long as the charms incorporate the vampire theme and are durable enough to wear on a bracelet. For example, you could use imagery from the old b&w, b movie and Hammer Horror films such as Count Orlok (Nosferatu), Dracula, Vampira etc. Anything vampire related such as fangs, coffins, stakes, rats, bats, vial of fake blood etc.

DO NOT send ''Twilight'' themed charms. These charms are to be based on the more traditional/generic type of vampire.

The charms can be made from scratch using whatever you like, be it metal, beads, clay, felt, shrink plastic, fimo, wood etc. Or, if you prefer, you can alter existing items such as bottle caps, scrabble tiles, dominoes, poker chips, chipboard shapes, pendants, and vintage lockets by embellishing with the appropriate imagery and anything else you fancy. Size wise, I'd say the charms should be between 1-2 inches including any dangly bits and the jump ring. Please DO NOT FORGET to attach a jump ring or split ring so that the charm can be added to a bracelet as soon as your partner receives your unique creation.

Google ''vampire'' and check out handmade vampire charms and pendants on flickr or etsy for inspiration.

A rating of 4.9 or more is required to join this swap. Newbies please email me first. I will check profiles and ban any suspect swappers before assigning partners as I am not able to angel this swap should someone flake.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU SEND CHARMS THAT YOU WOULD BE HAPPY TO RECEIVE YOURSELF SO THAT YOUR PARTNER CAN WEAR YOUR CREATION WITH PRIDE. THIS IS A SWAP REQUIREMENT AND YOU WILL BE RATED ACCORDINGLY.

Any questions please feel free to ask.
