Quickie Craft Yuletime Swap (over! Mail date Dec 5th or ASAP! :) :) :)
Hey guys... I'm new here but I wanna jump in with both feet, cuz I LOVE the whole swapping idea.
I know there's already a Christmas swap or two started but they are... well... already started. LOL.
SO... I had a lil' idea.
Quickie Craft... meaning something small that won't take long to make and not cost too much either.
I say Yuletime to be... "PC" about it... since I'm not Christian but I still exchange gifts
I came up with this idea not only because I was too late for other swaps, but cuz I have two little kids, no time, and not much money! (who does, these days, right?)
The sort of thing I was thinking... was like a couple magnets or a crocheted dishcloth, or a piece of unique jewellery or... some sort of recycled stuff project. Y'know?
I'm in Canada, too... I know a lot of you are in the US, so that's another reason to keep projects small and inexpensive cuz it might cost a buck or two more to send stuff across the border.
In anycase... who's game?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's who we've got so far;
Mama Zoe
Fave colours: purple & green... blue & black... brown & earthtones... any combo of those that works... and any funky patterns
Your "style"... what's your deal?: I'm a dirty hippie? lol. I "do" anything from goth/emo style to hippy earthy stuff, to tyedye lol. I'm pretty easy.
When it comes to small-stuff, what would you like?: unique jewelry, hair accessories (my hair is fairly short though)..magnets, bookmarks... ?? cool trinket? lol.
Anything you'd prefer not to get?: I just don't do frilly and pink. My kids'll end up wearing it. LOL. Which is fine - if someone wants to make a sparkly pink and lacey thing that my 5 & 3 yearolds would love, that's equally awesome.
Charleeeeee.

^^ Well I live in Germany so I now what you mean.. It would be very expensive to send big things to US or Kanada or other countries... So I think that is a good time for me to join a swap^^ hehe
Yeah exactly... but if we sent something small enough to fit an envelope or something, then we might be OK ...
Alright... well... we have one person... well two counting me LOL... let's see if anyone else bites.
I'd like to participate... is this a "yuletime" theme or just gift-gifts kinda swap?
I would have to say... depends on your partner, but as a rule... whatever you want *grin*
