Description:

So, I was in a swap like this that got cancelled, but have already put in HOURS of work on it, so I'm not going to let that work go to waste.

This is a swap that has 3 parts, explained below, and summed up at the bottom.

Swap Requirements: Must have completed at least 5 type 3 swaps, with no unexplained 1's or 3's in past 6 months. At least 4.8 rating.

For this swap, you need to have a blog. Blogger, Wordpress, Livejournal, Tumblr, whatever kind, as long as you can send a link to your partners.

In the first part of the swap you will post a list of things off of Pinterest/other blogs that you would like to get completed this summer on your blog. The list can be as long or as ambitious as you want, but should include at least 10 things. They don't necessarily have to be crafty type projects, could be a recipe you have been wanting to make, a hairstyle, an organization project, etc. Please be sure to include a link to either your pin (you can embed pins in your posts) or the originating blog for each item on your list, and please credit the original person who came up with the idea properly. This is the first part of the swap.

Once you complete the list, post the link to your blog post in the swap comments.

For the second part of the swap, you will do at least 3 projects off of your list. Each time you complete a project,you should do a blog entry about it, including pictures of your work. Some ideas would be to include materials needed, how long it took you, your opinions about the results, how easy the instructions were to follow, etc.

Once you complete part 2 of the swap, e-mail your partner the links to your completed project.

The third part of this swap is to make one of the projects off your list for your partner and send it to them. You should spend somewhere between $3 and $8 making this. Some examples of projects for your partner could include: a scarf and pin, nonperishable recipes, tote bags, 5x7ish art project, other small sewing or crafting projects; etc. This project is sender's choice, but should pay attention to any food allergies or color dislikes.

Are you up for the challenge?

To sum up:

  • Blog post with a list of at least 10 project ideas - link posted in swap comments

  • Blog posts for 3 completed projects - links e-mailed to partner

  • $3-$8 project - mailed to partner

I'll start it up with the link to my Summer Pinterest Challenge. I'm slowly adding to it as I find more projects I would like to complete. http://teachertalons.blogspot.com/2013/06/summer-pinterest-challenge.html/

Thank you! Thank you!!! I was so excited for this swap, and totally bummed out it was canceled. Glad to see it up again :)

Note that I added a little something to the original swap - because I like making things for people.

I see that - looks like a lot of fun! It is an excellent touch to the swap.
