Part 2: "current events", announcements

Links n' stuff..
The family guild!!! Clicky clicky!
Check out the Official Rave Thread! Our new found sister!

Post tutorials, Work in progress, and completed pieces!

Also a great place for snail mail trading, rave stories, and making friends.
This thread won't JUST be about kandi, but it's also a great place for "rave kids" to hang out and talk.
You can share tips, give advice, and show off your work while receiving some suggestions and inspiration!
This is also where our new rave family, Smack hangs out!
If you wanna be a family member, let me know :3
All I ask is that you read the Ravers' Manifesto.
We're also working on creating special family kandi.
(and in case you didn't know, a Smack is a group of Jellyfish :3 Woo.)
So, just so we have this clear,
Mom: Moi. Black_gumdrawpz.
Dad: radical-edwerd.
Kids: Err'body else.

Regarding trades, just talk about it, really. I'm ALWAYS open to trade ^^ All you gotta do is PM me.
If you want to trade with more people, just post a reply saying that you'd like to!
I'm sure you'll get a reply.
And as far as fair trades go, that's up to you guys to discuss ^^;
I'm not gonna be held responsible if you get ripped off, okay?

Just to kick things off, here's a couple links to some great tutorial sites and patterns:
Kanditrade.net my favorite tutorial site. It requires an account, but it's free, so don't worry ^^
Crumpets Kandi Patterns! For multi's
Ravers only's Kandi Klinic I go here when I'm in need of some inspiration.

******************
-----RULESLOL-----
******************

I've made a little list of rules! And I'd appreciate it if you guys would follow them!

Rule 1. No rude, negative comments. Every kandi that is made is something of value. If it's not something that you like, keep the negative criticism to yourlself
***UNLESS***
You aren't TRYING to be rude. Constructive criticism is encouraged, just as long as it's friendly!

Rule 2. Credit stuff!
If you didn't make it, then don't say you did! Simple as that!
Give credit to anything that isn't yours.
If you don't know who made it, make sure that you make that known!

Rule 3. No stretching the page with pictures
Please! It's irritating D:

I think that's all I've got for now. Maybe I'll add on some more as I see that they are needed ^^
This is just to keep a little bit of structure.
Even a rave thread needs some XD

Use your phone silly c:

I'm getting ready to post how I organize my supplies.

[XhadowTM]

I can make patterns! Anyone need a fun pattern design?


I wanna make some send me ideas!

[Demivee]

I can make basic kandi, but they usually come out pretty. :3

I also make kandi grab bags to give to my friends! Some come with normal kandi, others come with some glow in the dark pieces thrown in, and a few rare ones even have glow in the sun kandi! ^_____^

Also, I was pretty much a lurker in the other thread but I hope to be more active in this one heart }

[Demivee]

Thank you very much, ladies! ^.^ I'm going to give them as Easter gifts to my nieces because they love kandi. (: But I have farrrrr too many beads for my own good! >.< So I'm trying to get rid of them as fast as I can to make space in my closet for more art supplies. D; I'm thinking of selling them on etsy for really cheap. The prices of kandi on etsy are pretty expensive. >.<

[Skunky Princess]

{I agree, I have about 204803284 drawers full of beads and not much to do with all of them >_<}

D:
Who SELLS kandi?!
For actual money?! AAHHH D:
That's not plur!!
I've thought about trading with gaia people, and if they wanted to, they could give gold, but still!
;;
Bums me out man


AND ALSO.
USE THOSE BEADS.
There are bead-starved children in Utah..
...Me. ; ^ ;

[Demivee]

There's a lot of people on etsy that sell kandi for ridiculously high prices. >.< I'd be willing to trade if I had people to trade with. ;-; But all my friends grew out of raving and I don't do too much raving anymore anyway. So now I don't know about what I should do with the mountain of beads and kandi I have in my closet.

Aww honeeeyy!
I'm always willing to trade! I've got two sets of 10 singles to send off as we speak!

I can make just about anything, I just thought a random grab-bag would be fun to do.
