We're getting our altering on again and this time we are doing a spoon. Who'd have thought that this every day item can be so very glamorous?
Rules of the game:
Use a metal spoon as the base. No paper / plastic fakies. Let's keep to a teaspoon / sugar spoon size - shipping is the devil's work! If you want to go bigger, feel free, but a teaspoon / sugar spoon size meets requirements. It can be antique, brand new or a thrift store find. The point is to make it into an art piece, so keep that in mind when you pick. Get the best glue you can find and go to town on that spoon baby. Do not be skirrid. Go for it! From beadwork to painting to decoupage to mixed media madness - let your art spirit soar. More is more in this swap :) Want some inspirational eye candy? Click me!. You can alter, but ask your partner's permission before you cut or bend the spoon. Some artists cut off the handle and make a pendant with the head, some curve the handle to make a hook, some curve the handle all the way around to make a bangle/ring and others flatten the head to diecut into it. Fun right? Just make sure your partner is on board. I can make up some seperate swaps for extreme spoon altering ;) Sender's choice in theme and decoration - just note that it is going from one Queen to another, so send your best work. There's a month to fiddle with this, so take your time and really enjoy the adventure. Make something brag-worthy and give yourself permission to go spectacular.
The usual swap fineprint applies:
- No recent / unexplained 1's or 3's (within 6 months).
- No due swaps on your dashboard. A noticable late sending pattern will also get you booted
- 4.95+ to participate
- Put effort into this one - you're a Queen and so is she. Respect that. Newbies to altered art are welcome, as long as you are really putting effort in. Be fair in rating.
- Sender's choice.
- I'll boot where I feel uncomfortable.
- Package it for safe international travel. This beaut is going places :)
- I'll angel, but flake at your own risk.
- Any questions, please ask. :)
