This is a fun swap for all of the dotee addicts out there. :)

Decorate your cigar box or a box about the same size you could put a flat dottee doll on the top of it or just decorate it to match your partners profile

Make sure your box is nicely finished so that they can continue to store their dottee doll supplies in it for a long time to come .

and fill it full of things for making dottees

your box should include the following

1.) 4 nice fat eighths please find interesting prints and designs

2.) At least 50 larger beads for tails (can be glass, plastic, metal, gemstone or a "mix", as long as they are nice ones.)

3.) At least 20 "embellishments" that are not beads. (Such as buttons, ribbons, silk flowers, etc.)

4.) At least 6 different 1-yard strands of fibers/yarn/etc that can be used as hair.

5.) At least 3 different colored 4-inch squares of felt for faces.

6.) 4 skeins of embroidery floss to match the colors of the fat eighths.

7) 2 packages of smaller beads seed beads, bugle beads , or other small beads . that your partner can use for embellishing remember these should be smaller than the ones you use for the tails.

8) 20 nice charms for adding a special touch to your dottees.

if you have any room left over fill it up with smaller pieces of fabric , emboridery floss, more beads, whatever you think will work on a Dottee doll.

be sure to send something you would love to receive aim for hearts.

Hearts, as always are up to the receiver but if its a super nice package consider giving your partner one.

This swap is USA only and open to anyone with a rating of at least 4.9. Must have a completed profile,and have been in at least 10 real mail swaps not including postcard or pen pal swaps

no recent no sends. but i know stuff happens so if you have a no send that you can't resolve or are trying to resolve then pm me

I will ban after signup has ended if necessary . but if you see a fishy swaper please pm me so that i can be aware of it as well.

Most important thing is to have fun

OOOOH! I see something I need to edit about my swap! The beads part! This is a great swap, daffyd1963! If the sign-up date was further away (because I will be moving) and I could actually get a hold of a cigar box, I would be very tempted to join! :)

thanks I loved your orginal idea but wanted to add the seed beads as a seperate item from the other beads and make it just a bit different .

What exactly are seed beads?

seed beads are really tiny beads I believe they are the smallest you can get that still have a whole in them for stringing
