Description: | |
She had heard the stories and murmuring of family members over the years about the "lost" family treasure. There was something about the story.... the story that had been passed down from her Great Great Grandmother, Goodie McDonald. It had been said that a magical artifact had been buried years ago in the hills in back of the family home, the home located outside of Boston in an area that used to be called "Hangman's Hill". The story went that you had to go on the night of a full moon carrying only a lantern and something to dig with. When you got to the foot of Hangman's Hill, you paced out 30 steps then made a 90 degree turn and then dig down at least 3 feet. She had brought her lantern and a small shovel; she considered bringing a spade but thought better of it. That would take hours! She started digging at precisely 12 midnight as the story went. After about an hour, she heard a "thud", she looked down and there buried for a century plus was an old, dirty canvas bag. She looked around not believing that SHE had found something! She carefully opened it under the lantern light and jumped back in surprise, there it was, the.......................... Ok so now YOU make a magical artifact that she found in that old dirty canvas bag, buried for a century +! Do your best work; the McDonald family wants you to do them proud! It must be magical, an amulet, a wand, something you hand make..... Your choice. Have fun with this, I had a GREAT time doing the lead up to the swap! Feel free to copy as International Swap! |
