Description:

Borrowed from the Winter Inspiration idea, I had an idea for a Five Senses swap. You need to send your partners five items to inspire their creativity.

  1. Touch: examples:A texture, something you want to touch, fibers, a textural paper, a rock

  2. Smell: examples: a small sample of potpourri, a small container of some spice

  3. Sight: Something pretty to look at or inspiring to look at examples: a photo, postcard or an ATC, something you made that is pleasant to the eyes

  4. Hearing: A list of your 5 favorite songs

  5. Taste: a teabag, piece of candy

You will have 3 partners for this swap.

Please look at your partners profiles to see what they may like. Or if you're open to trying new things, post that here so your partner can share their favorites. This is not a swap that should cost a lot, but it is a swap that you need to spend some time thinking about. Swappers with multiple no sends need not apply, you will be removed. Profiles will need to be filled out and no swappers below a 4.0 please. If there are special circumstances feel free to contact me.

This is an international swap. Thanks for playing!

FridaKahlo 02/14/2007 #

Yes, it is international. I added that to the description now. Dianne

hmmm... I think I know you, Belle... :)

FridaKahlo 03/ 1/2007 #

hmm, i think you might, i hope we don't get each other as partners, we go through each others things enough i think.

FridaKahlo 03/ 4/2007 #

I just wanted to add, don't feel hemmed in by the suggestions above, send what fits the category to you, be creative, have fun!!! i just got a great list of lyrics from another swap that i think would fit the "hearing" category, or maybe a poem to read out loud. feel free to send an actual CD or tape, but my CD burner is burned out so i don't have that capability anymore. the idea of this swap is to have a backup kinda thing to look to for inspiration, when one sense isn't working, try another!! can't wait to start swapping, post ideas here!

Let the swapping begin!! I have assigned partners, let me know if you do not receive your swaps, I will do my best to rectify the situation if we have any sluggish swappers, and if you know you cannot fulfill your obligation, please let me know so i can find a swap fairy or two! Thanks so much, Dianne

Did I miss something? Is there a reason I only have two partners instead of three?

FridaKahlo 03/ 8/2007 #

boopgirly- you have three assigned, if you're not seeing the third, scroll down when you look at the list, use the little bar on the right. if you still don't see it, write me and i'll send the info to you. Dianne

My packages have been sent. They are headed out Priority mail to MA, NH and my neighbor here in OR. So you should get them by this weekend.

Nathalie 03/15/2007 #

ND, OR en Mich, watch out your 5 senses packages are on they're way

FridaKahlo 03/16/2007 #

I may need a couple of swap angels, if anyone is able to help out. thanks Dianne

alwaysjoy 03/18/2007 #

I can angel, though I can't get them out until later in the week.

FridaKahlo 03/19/2007 #

Please remember to click if your packages have been sent and post if you've received so I can see if anyone needs an "angel" package. thanks, Dianne

Cnvingltlbtch 03/19/2007 #

if you need an angel let me know and i can put something together.

orcasong 03/20/2007 #

cnvingltlbtch, AlwaysJoy, and boopgirly,

Sorry I'm a bit late sending things out. I just got over being sick off and on for 4 weeks, and I just found out my brother's coming into town this weekend. I'm working on it right now and will get it out asap.

FridaKahlo 03/21/2007 #

thanks for letting us know, orca.

Still nothing received from either of my 3 swappartners

FridaKahlo 04/ 3/2007 #

Nathalie - i e-mailed you on your private account but wanted to let you know in case you check here first, I sent my package the first week of March, around the 9th but it was heavy and the PO said it may take a few weeks to get there. the postage was around 7-8 dollars if i remember, i'll dig out the receipt. as you see above i received a package from grace so i'm sure she sent yours as well - but it was a large box so also may take longer. hers was sent on the 19th. i have her box here with me. be patient, sometimes it takes longer to reach our oversea friends. Your other partner Summer, i am waiting to hear from. I haven't received from her either. Dianne
