To all of you still replying to this, this contest is closed..sorry.
As some of you know, I was the last winner of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Bead Box. I received it from Hannah Rosner: Good River Gallery.
Previous winners were:
2) Nancy Dale: NED Beads
1) Mikki Ferrugiaro: MFD Beadwork Originals
Originating from Heather Powers of Humblebeads and Art Bead Scene
“When you get the box, you take out what you want and then swap in with equal or greater value. Then, blog (I think a facebook note is fine, too) about it and give folks a chance to win it! Once its over, the whole box will end up with Heather so she can go ahead and have her turn before dividing the rest up into prizes.” Quoted from Hannah’s blog.
So you want to leave a comment on my blog with your name and email and I will chose a winner August 24th. You are responsible for shipping, so when you win, I will send you a PayPal invoice for 10.95, which is a medium sized priority mail box.
Here is what is in the box now, it is bulked together, but you get the gist:
My Takes:

who wouldnt want to get their hands in on a chance of that box visiting their house? I would LOVE it!
I was originally inspired to create jewelry by getting a large collection from an ex beader. I got all her stuff, stones, tools, findings, etc. I love getting a hodge podge of delights. I’d love to win this!
This is such a great idea! Just think of all the diverse and exciting things that await the next winner! Good Luck to all…
Oh WOW!!! What a great idea. Who wouldn’t want to win!?!?!
Thanks!
Count me in too! Sounds like fun.
What a great idea! I would love a chance to look through the box but I would also like to start another one going around!
For those who like the 14’s and 15’s, I know of a vendor in South carolina who sells 24’s through 33’s, but be warned, the only way to bead with them is to use horsehair because they’re too tiny for needles.
it sound like a lot of fun of taking new beads and give new ones too sooooooo cooool I can share my lovely bright beads with some one who will love them as much as I did lol
it look like a lot of fun give and take,make new things with them and I have the chance to share my lovely bright friend 🙂
oooh – pretties!!! It has been a long time since I got such a box in the mail and boy, oh boy, oh boy, do I have ideas for some of those beads! And those patterns? Yay! Okay, put my name in the pot :>

I love the idea of the traveling bead box! What fun!!! If I get it I promise I’ll add lots of goodies when I send it on it’s way!
Oh, okay, what the heck. Throw my name in there, too. And my toddler would probably love to play in the box, too, LOL!
Oooh, I like! Put me in the mix.
Thye NVBS (www.nvabeads.org) does something similar every year. We have an annual bead auction and last year we had two bead tins – filled with donated beads from vendors and members. We auction it off in May, then the winner has to seed it for the next auction, and once again vendors and members add goodies.
Ooooh, a traveling box of shiny, little round (square, triangular, etc.) bits of goodness. Please toss my name in the hat!
