PARTICIPATORY SPORT FOR CRAFT ARTISTS
Ring Swap for Participants of the Ring-a-Day Project
I know this is a busy period for all of us but Ring-A-Day is ending soon and the holiday season is approaching.
This is why I 've been thinking of organizing a ring swap so that each one of us has a ring especially made by another RAD participant artist.
The rules are simple.
if you're interested in participating:
a. Reply to this post by confirming your participation.
b. E-mail me your ring size and address (either through Flickr, or Crafthaus or by using this e-mail: info@createjewelry.gr).
c. I will draw the names to define who is making a ring for who and then I will e-mail each participant with the details (specific person that you're making a gift for, ring size and address).
d. Then you have to make the ring at your convenience and send it to this person….just make sure it's before christmas!!! You will post it on the Flickr Group pool, but please don't mention for whom it's made for!
Deadline for joining the swap: December 2nd.
I'm sorry for mentioning this on the last moment….but I thought it would be a nice way to deal with end of RAD blues etc., plus each one of us will have a special gift made by another participant.

After posting the swap idea on the Flickr discussion forum and mentioning that I wanted this to be a surprise for me too, Evelyn Markasky volunteered to help and we're going to split up the list of participants.
So please e-mail me your info (ring size and address) but keep in mind that half of you are going to be notified by Evelyn about the details.
Thank you in advance!

I would love to participate. I have contributed to RAD under the name of EamonEllery and while I haven't met my goal (yet) of a ring a week (a ring a day was far to daunting for me), I have really enjoyed this whole experiment.
Please count me in.

SNAG Toronto part 4
I'll leave my Toronto report with a few notes about the conference lectures and presentations. I'd have to say that there certainly was a mosaic of diversity in the 3+ days at the Royal York Hotel. From Damian Skinner's stoic keynote series on the jewelry making/marketing universe in his musical New Zealand accent, through a series of very short "rapid-fire" presentations by a wide variety of artists, to the Professional Development Seminar that lashed the artists and their works to the…See More
