Description:

I've really gotten into making felt tree ornaments and thought it might be fun to swap some of them. This is the second in a small series. Don't worry if you didn't join in on the others.

This is a very simple swap:

Make outdoor/woodland themed ornament out of felt or fabric for 1 partner and send. Examples might be acorns, pinecones, pine boughs, leaves, squirrels... (Keep in mind there is another ornament swap for birds, so try to make this one something other than a bird.)

Make the ornament at least 3 inches long, but no longer than 7 inches. Feel free to decorate the ornament with glitter, beads, embroidery, paints, etc... Please make some sort of hanger/clip for attaching the ornament to the tree. Please make something YOU'D like to receive. Try to keep things holiday themed with colors, however, try to avoid religious iconography.

I'm willing to angel if need be.

The rules: 1) Must have a rating of at least 4.8 with at least 5 mail swaps. 2) Newbies welcome with filled out profile, however, PM me. 3) No ones or threes allowed in the last 6 months on mailed swaps.

These are simple ornaments and should be light to mail, however, at this time I'm going to keep it US/CANADA only. If someone wants to coordinate an International swap, just let me know.

Hi everyone, sorry about not assigning partners yet. I'll be assigning them around 9pm EST tonight to allow a few folks that have messaged me time to join in. If they join before then, then I'll assign before then. I would normally not extend sign-ins like this, but I feel responsible since there was a definite lack of communication on my side-my internet went out for a bit this week, and I've been a bit busy dealing with an unruly kindergartner and his teachers to notice the internet being missing. So, 9pm EST- we'll see the big reveal. : ) Thanks for the patience, and I hope everyone has also signed up for swap #3 and swap #4.
