History Hop Participants - still time to join!

A few of you were worried you weren't in the History Hop, so I've updated the list again to show all of the participants so far. This list was made at 7:20am EST today, so if you joined before then and aren't on the list, I haven't received your info, for some reason.

There's still time to join in. I haven't put a deadline for joining, yet. So long as let me know your choice with enough time to add you to my list, and you give yourself enough time to create, I'm happy!

History Hop Update

Thought I would post a little update for the History Hop. So far, we have over 12 participants! I've listed everyone who up to this point has joined. I used the names and blog links I found on your profiles. Please let me know if they're wrong or any other info I've left out (that means I couldn't find it!). Also let me know if your blog links are not working.

Otherwise, you're in!

History Hop - join in!

Are you inspired by history? If you said yes, then this could be the blog hop for you! The History Hop is a chance to immerse yourself in a period in history and create jewelry with that inspiration.

Your challenge is to select a period from the timeline below (or I can choose one at random for you!), research it, and create something to reflect that period. I'm hoping you'll not only be inspired by the style of the period, but also the materials that would have been used.

Ready?

How it works: 

Choose one or more time periods. If you'd rather it be a surprise, I can choose a period for you. Remember, you only have to choose one!

Post a comment here or email me with your chosen time period. I'll put all the info together for an easy to use blog hop list, so we know where we're going!

Create at least one piece of jewelry for your period. You can make as many as you like, but one finished piece for each time period you choose is all that's required.

Reveal on Saturday, October 13th.

Hop the blogs - I know there are going to be some amazing creations, so enjoy the hop!

Info I need from you: your chosen time period and your blog address, if you're not commenting with a Blogger account. Otherwise it's hard to find you!

There are 14 time periods to choose from. Click on the names for a great site with descriptions, history, and photos for each time period.




  












Found one you liked? Email (click on my profile to contact me) or comment here with your choice(s) and that you'd like to participate. All you have to do from there is create and wait for the reveal day! I hope there's enough info in the links above, but if you need help finding any other resources, just ask!

Let's get creating!
