Description:

I got the idea to do a naked bottle swap from Lavender72004 whos recently hosted one. For this swap you will have to send a whole bottle of ocean-themed whimsy to one partner, naked mail. Think bohemian pirates, beautiful shell stickers and findings, pirate ships, mermaids, maps, pirate coins, fishies and sea creatures,think vivid blues and teals offset by the bright colors of tropical reefs, etc..Think class not cartoon, meaning that this is a swap for pretty crafty ocean themed things, not so much cartoony lisa frank dolphins and pirates of the carribean-type of stuff. You must also decorate the bottle. If you send shells and things that were actually in the ocean at one point, please make sure they are clean before sending. The bottle should be 16-20 ounces, which is a standard size soda or water bottle. You can also send things like brads, ribbons, small crafts, charms, etc if they fit the color scheme. The spending limit is 5-8 dollars. To join, please be 4.8 and above. Newbies please message me of ill have to ban ya. Thats all i can think of for the rules. have fun and comment for questions :] Hint: you can also cut a slit in the side of the bottle to fit more stuff in, then tape it closed.

I totally love this one!!! I grew up near the ocean, and have a hard time since I live so far away from it now.
I love shells, sea glass, mermaids, fish/sea creatures...etc all the beautiful, calming aspects of the ocean (not so much the pirate stuff)

my dream is to have a house somewhere near the ocean, and have those adirondack (sp?) chairs in my yard so I can sit outside and listen to the waves crashing against the shore.....

Thanks for creating this swap, I LOVE IT!!
