Totally inspired by the book 'A Charming Exchange' by Snelling and Rae, I decided to host my own swap and i can now reveal the fruits of everyones labour.
I had 14 charming swappees including myself making a fantastic array of charms in all shapes and sizes.I then created a bracelet {or in some cases a keyring} for them all to go on and hand made boxes to present them in
I would just like to say a very big thanks to each and every one of you for making this a most enjoyable swap.. and i hope you all decide to partake in simular ones i have planned in the near future.. watch the forum for details...

I received my bracelet this afternoon - and it is awesome. It is stunningly beautiful and I will wear it with immense pride very often.
Thank you enormously for organizing this - and for all your hard work - it truly is appreciated - and must have taken you hours and hours to make each bracelet - you are so talented.
Thank you to all the artists who made the charms - I just can't stop looking at each and every one. They are all gorgeous, and I hope to emulate them in the future - you may well be getting questions from me asking 'how to'.
It is just wonderful to be part of something like this- the swap and the forum - and I certainly will be joining in some more swaps whenever I can.

Wow Minxy they look so lovely displayed like this! I was playing guess who made what and I have to say I didn't get many right! They are all indeed very lovely and I have already had lots and lots of comments about mine when I wore it to work on Friday! A big thank you to everyone!

Wow!... fantastic stuff. Looks like it was a great swap!
I thoroughly enjoyed taking part in this swap, and can't stress what a fantastic job Nicky has done in putting these gorgeous bracelets together - with 14 participants that's a massive job. Well done Nicky and thanks to everyone for such beautiful pieces of art. I'm looking forward to wearing mine next time I go out!
