If I sign up for any more swaps my hubby might start to refuse to go to the post office for me! But I love this swap! Great idea! If you host it again in the summer I will join!

Happy Swapping! Crystal

Ooooh, cool! I get to try something new AND if it stinks I don't have to keep it. This is wonderful. I want to make a 3-D flower out of fabric, and I also want to take a crack at making a mosaic. Here we go!

LittleMy 01/14/2008 #

I guess I better get your dotte kit out in a hurry, eh CC! Off to my studio to work on it...

Ok. I want to try: - Fimo ... i might try to make either beads or an ATC - Soapmaking - Making earrings - That silver spoon pincushion thing

crimsoncat05 01/14/2008 #

oooh, this is a good one, but I won't have time to do it. If you do another one later, I'd definitely be in!

scentednights2002 01/14/2008 #

I would like to try to decoupage a tin and I'd like to try to make a button fairy.

I want to try to:

*make an ATC *make marble magnets

HelloCupcake84 01/19/2008 #

I'm changing marble magnets to Bottlecap magnets. And I also want to try my hand at a matchbox!

jstubbs 01/21/2008 #

I want to try my hand at a Dotee doll, a bottlecap pin cushion, or a button dragon. I'd like to try and host a swap too, but that will have to wait until a later date. Thanks for hosting this one, good excuse to try something new.

fivecats1 01/21/2008 #

I want to try:

A beaded stick pin silk painting (I have this kit that I haven't even opened yet to try out!!! - I think it makes a scarf).

Annabelle 01/21/2008 #

I would like to try making a matchbox, a dotee doll, flat marble magnets, a zippered coin purse/pouch, and hand drawn lettersets. How could I list just 2? I have about 800 things on my crafty to-do list :^)

purplewhimsy 01/22/2008 #

One of the many reasons I continue on Swap-Bot is because it challenges me to expand my artistic repertoire. This brilliant swap idea, the brainchild of our charming hostess, is another wonderful example of the exploding creativity we can find here on Swap-Bot.

So, my challenges. Like Annabelle, I have SO many things untried! I'm not even sure what a dotee doll is, so I might look that up and give that a whirl. I also want to try making a pin cushion, as well as the same coasters that rengawk listed from JennyB's AllSorts website (which I totally love and have been to very often in the past few months!). I also want to learn to knit socks, but alas I fear that may be a bit too much to take on for this swap. Although I could try one very small sock maybe. There's also a pattern I have for making a small fairy, so I might take that for a spin. Okay, that's enough choices for now. Looking forward to a fun swap!

orcasong 01/23/2008 #

I might try a dotee doll and maybe try wood burning a small balsa wood box with my new wood burning tool.

sheysd1 01/23/2008 #

Ok........I think I would like to try to make a matchbox!.............and see what I can cram into it! :) I would also like to try to make an ATC, out of fabric , I think.......something recycled and funky maybe!!

moonbrooke 01/24/2008 #

I just saw this swap today and it was the last day to sign-up so I haven't decided what I want to do yet. I really should only actually only make 2 things, but there are so many things I want to try.

I want to try to make an ATC, inchie, matchbox or dotee doll so that I can see if I enjoy them and join in the swapping crazes.

There are also other crafts out there that I haven't tried before that I would love to try out.

I just love learning how to do a new things so this swap appeals to me in a big way!!

daffyd1963 01/24/2008 #

great swap I want to try making

polymer clay beads

jewerly from found objects

icicle doll havnt't made one of these yet but they look really cool

a silver spoon pin cushion just googled these and they are so cool

a art doll of some sort besides a dotee doll and not made from paper as I have made these already

cerwinrhiannon 01/28/2008 #

I'd like to try some of the ATC techniques from Bernie Berlin's book; something with watercolors; doing something with a metal box, like an Altoid's tin.

flowerlily64 01/29/2008 #

I am going to make a softie chicken and a set of coasters

flowerlily64 01/29/2008 #

oopps...not a chicken...a cow...LOL (thats what I get for being on the computer at 5:45am....((goes off to get coffee)))

fivecats1 02/10/2008 #

OK, it was not a kit that makes a silk scarf. it makes a silk picture.....(and i had to ditch the first one as I screwed up and glued the silk to a piece of paper)...I guess this is why the swap is "like a virgin". Second try (first finished try) turned out somewhat OK (but still to embarrassing to upload to Flickr).

cerwinrhiannon 03/ 2/2008 #

I'm changing my metal box to an amigurumi. I want to see why they are so popular.

cerwinrhiannon 03/10/2008 #

I am finished. I made a penguin and did an ATC with torn paper and paints.

daffyd1963 03/26/2008 #

My project is on the way I made an art doll from a varity of items and a necklace from a puzzle piece and old stamps. you can see a picture of the art doll here
