I am really excited to send in my earrings and see what I get. I use silver and real stones, but I’m not at all worried about getting back something comparable to what I send in, if it’s not S. Sliver, I can change the ear wires myself, and if the beads are plastic, so what, as posted above "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" something does not have to be of a certain value to be considered good or beautiful. plus it’s not like I’m going to go out and spend $50 bucks to buy supplies for this project, I would guess most of us on this site already have everything we need, stockpiled, to a certain extent, to make a pair of earrings. This is about creative expression and talent. This is for fun people! We should keep it that way. If you can’t afford $5 and a SASE, just don’t do it and move on, I highly doubt anyone is trying to make it rich and/or get over on us.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.beadingdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=40403" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Beading Daily Earring Swap</title><link>http://www.beadingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2009/07/24/beading-daily-earring-swap.aspx#40228</link><pubDate>Wed, 29 Jul 2009 17:51:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">e599e337-6bb7-4670-8e80-180f614937ac:40228</guid><dc:creator>JMarie107</dc:creator><description>Thanks for the clarifications to the rules.  I was able to download the entry form.  I can't wait to see what earrings I will get out of the swap and I hope that whoever gets mine will love them.  I'm tyring to spread positive energy.  I think that we all have to remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  I don't think that people meant to be negative, it's just people have a lot of concerns when it comes to money in these hard economic times. &lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.beadingdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=40228" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Beading Daily Earring Swap</title><link>http://www.beadingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2009/07/24/beading-daily-earring-swap.aspx#40227</link><pubDate>Wed, 29 Jul 2009 17:51:20 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">e599e337-6bb7-4670-8e80-180f614937ac:40227</guid><dc:creator>JMarie107</dc:creator><description>Thanks for the clarifications to the rules.

I'll be sure to make mine with citrine as to not pass on any of the negativity in all these comments.

Sending a SASE - awesome idea
Paying $5.00 for handling - not asking too much
Chance to see other artists work - priceless

The first swap we did the pair I sent in just a padded envelope was a little mangled. &lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.beadingdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=40034" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Beading Daily Earring Swap</title><link>http://www.beadingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2009/07/24/beading-daily-earring-swap.aspx#40029</link><pubDate>Tue, 28 Jul 2009 16:25:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">e599e337-6bb7-4670-8e80-180f614937ac:40029</guid><dc:creator>Debbie@304</dc:creator><description>Thank you!  I really appreciate all the comments and the update generated.  Now, knowing that we can buy US postage stamps at Canadian post offices helps, but could you please tell us how much postage we need to put on our SASEs?  Earrings are small and weigh so little that we'll all be using small padded envelopes and minimun rate should work.  We just need to know what that is.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.beadingdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=40029" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Beading Daily Earring Swap</title><link>http://www.beadingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2009/07/24/beading-daily-earring-swap.aspx#40025</link><pubDate>Tue, 28 Jul 2009 16:12:17 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">e599e337-6bb7-4670-8e80-180f614937ac:40025</guid><dc:creator>electricrainbow1</dc:creator><description>Now that the clarifications are in and there don't seem to be any lingering unanswered questions or concerns, I say "Let the beading begin!!!"  : )  I can't wait to see what comes my way!  I hope we'll get the contact info from whoever did our piece.  I personally, would like to thank them and give kudos on creativity!
