Charm Exchange II
Our first Charm Exchange was a thrilling success with tiny treasures arriving in the mailbox and culminating in this, the second round of exchanges with a holiday theme! We hope you will join in the fun! To sign up just email Denise at: dilmanen@marincf.org .This trading activity will inspire fun~creativity~
friendships~& lots of Tiny Surprises arriving in your mailbox!
Charms~Trinkets~Teddybear Treasures can be made (or purchased) from anything you would like. In the past,
members of this SMALL activity created teddybear treasures made of a variety of things.....shrink-art, beads, buttons, sculptured clays, stitched surprises, painted items, leathercrafts, ribbons, wood, etc. The idea is to make it something that is representative of YOU! It can represent your state or country, your hobbies, your crafts, your pets, ANYTHING you would like! It should be made with the thought in mind that it can be attached to a necklace ribbon, chain, vest, hat, bag, etc. for display purposes. They don't need to be exactly the same, however for a collection such as this, they should be similar in style. It is also nice to include a signature, tiny tag, or label with your name on it so that your trinket will be remembered as "your" contribution.
