Description:

Lets make some jewelry inspired by Dark Victoriana! This will be a Type 3 swap. Swap a necklace, earrings or bracelets. If you decide to do earrings, please send more than one pair, unless they are fairly complicated to make.

Please list below what type of jewelry you would like and if you have any allergies. Also list any metals or bead colors you would prefer.

I'd like the swap to be profile based enough that the receiver will enjoy wearing it, but still retains the creator's touch.

Any questions, let me know. This is my first swap I'm hosting, so bear with me please. Thanks!

Will you describe a "Type 3" item? Are you talking about a specific price range? I'm not sure what you're referring to and I want to know before committing myself. Thanks!

Type 3 means package or craft. This must be jewelry you make for your partner. No store bought items.

Yes, I understand the package or craft part, but I'm wondering about your comment that if I make earrings, please send more than one pair unless it's complicated--because it's a Type 3 swap. It sounds like you want something extra than the ordinary and I want to make sure what's required so I can fully comply with the swap terms. I'm not trying to be belligerent, I'm just very serious about my swaps.

Maybe if you have an spare minute, you can view pictures of my Steampunk jewelry, which is more of what I would create for this swap. If it fits with what you're looking for, that's great, but if not I'd like to know before committing. Thanks!

I would like this to be fair for the sender and receiver. I make alot of jewelry, simple earrings take a very small amount of time to do as opposed to gothic style necklaces and bracelets. If the earrings are very ornate and take more time to do, then it's acceptable to send one pair. If the sender puts a bead on an ear wire and only sends that, it is unacceptable and not fair to the person who spent more time on theirs. If your earrings are more complex with more parts, then that is totally acceptable as one pair.

I would be thrilled with anything you would like to make for me! Any style, any color. I don't want to limit anyone's creativity, and I love to see what people come up with. And my ears are pierced, so it really is anything goes.

I love copper and black and don't own enough copper and black jewelry. I wear alot of cameo;s and multi strand necklaces but also wear more simple styles. I Love the victorian era so really, anything would be fine. Any color metal is fine with me.
