Description:

This swap is for pagans and witches who love to have unique pentacle jewelry.

The theme is the Maiden the Mother and the Crone. Each swapper will get 1 partner. Once assigned, you will contact that partner and ask them their age- which will determine what phase of life there in: Maiden, Mother or Crone.

Ages: 18-29 are maiden (unless they have children of course), mother is 30- 55, crone is 56 and on.

Requirements:

  1. There must be a pentacle in the center of the Necklace (it's the focus)

  2. According to ones age, the beads/ design must correlate.

Example: If I was creating a necklace for someone who was a Maiden, then I would have beads that are light blues, or dreamy looking - you could even have a wilder colors like greens/ vibrant colors to symbolize a youthful life. But comparing, a Crones necklace should be very classy, darker hughes, perhaps a bit bolder beads and so on.

  1. Beads should be of descent quality- no large crappy plastic ones. The string should not be plastic stretchy cheap stuff.

The necklace that you make should be beautiful, or something you would wear. You could do something classy and sophisticated or vibrant- remember it should be WEARABLE!

The lowest score you can have is a 4.000 to join this swap.

=.=' Might help if you didn't determine their phase based on age.

Several 'crones' are still maidens, and several maidens are mothers. And sometimes mothers fight to be maidens again. And maidens may think they are the crones.

Dunno but maybe better to let the person chose what type they would like. Also a set price range since there is no specific design aimed for. =) gl

True, I didn't realize people were going to be sensitive about their age.

Everyone: Price shouldn't matter- the necklace I made atop was from beads that I had for a while- which happened to follow the theme. I made the Pentacle from sterling silver wire. But you could make it from polymer clay or small wood piece. One is only limited by the imagination. But If you go out and buy stuff, you may spend around $20.

**Another note:

If somebody doesn't feel like they like the category-age wise- they can tell there partner what they would rather be.

Thanks AngelicDagger for the advice :D

I work heavy with crone and would very much enjoy a crone necklace but I work with a triple Goddess form so any necklace will do, I am looking forward to making a Goddess necklace.
