Description:

I think this swap would be a great idea to possibly introduce others to new crafts..uh oh a new addiction :)

For this swap, you will send 1 partner 3 different handmade items you enjoy making. The items can be any handmade items you are crafty at... ATC's, book thongs/book marks, inchies, felties, dotees, pin cushions, note cards, matchbooks...absolutely ANYTHING made by you.

Did you ever wonder what an inchie or a felty was (for example) but you couldn't join one of those swaps because you were clueless on how to make them? Or wish you may possible recieve one of thos cute dotee dolls everyone is talking about...but you hate sewing!

*Here is the twist..althogh, you get to choose the items you create for your partner, you cannot choose the color...you must create the item in your partners color choice. :) So, for example if your partner picks "pink" you must make them 3 pink handmade items....get it? ;)

-Please remember to indicate your color in the comment section below.

-Keep in mind, you may get items that you already know how to make...but it's always fun to recieve and admire creations of others.

-Put your heart into it and make it fun :)

-If you are crafty at many items, read your partners profile and see if you can make them something they don't alread make.

-For hearts, you may want to include a small note explaining why or how you got involved with one of your particular crafts or even instructions on how to make one.

-This swap is open to anyone with a rating of 4.0 or higher and newbies with a completed profile. US only.

-If you have any questions or if there is anything I left out, please email me, or leave a comment below. I'm kinda new at hosting :)

Happy Swapping!

HarmonyNY 03/ 7/2008 #

Yay, I'm so excited...this is going to be fun :)

orcasong 03/ 7/2008 #

Yellow for me! And if you like to mix colors - I like orange with it.

CreationsByDanielle 03/ 7/2008 #

I LOVE green!!!! Dark forest green, bright emerald green, funky lime green, blue-green, pastel green... GREEEEEEEEEN! :) I also love all other colors, so any accent colors are fine with me :) I'm not picky. I'm thrilled to be in this swap! It's only my second one and I'm addicted!

Darleneh710 03/ 9/2008 #

Blue for me, if you want to use different shades of blue that is fine, but blue is my all-time favorite! This really will be so much fun!

goingsewcrazy 03/10/2008 #

I love sky blue and cherry red together and by themselves :)

vanillavagabond 03/10/2008 #

Just about anything in any color would be fantastic but since we are doing special colors for each other -- shades of lavender anything from deep dark purple to pale lilac would be great.

HarmonyNY 03/10/2008 #

Does everyone think this is a reasonable amount of time to make 3 items? I figured an average of 1 item per week was ok. If you think we need more time, pm me please :)

vee41dmb 03/11/2008 #

i think that more time is always better... i really like this swap idea because we get to chose the items. If i don't recieve 3 items that is okay- like if you want to make me one big one.. know what i mean? i realize diffrent things take diffrent amounts of time, etc. i have seen diffrent swaps that i liked with this idea, but they always had people making a list of items they want. This is better because it makes it less intimadating. just my thought. looking forwrd to this swap :) V*

if my partner wants to do a diff color i am good with that too :) or i have paisly as an option too.. i know it's not a color, but i really like it.

__deleted__ 03/12/2008 #

My favourite colour is pink.

I tend to like pale pink and bubble gum pink - not the hurt-your-eyes-bright neon pink, however.

Pink mixed with black is nice, too... or white.

This sounds like a lot of fun! I am looking forward to this swap!

HarmonyNY 03/12/2008 #

Ok, I edited to add a little more time to complete...of course, if you finish before the deadline, send it on out :)

craftymistress 03/13/2008 #

I LOVE black and white/cream mixed together, or just black. Also deep chocolate brown. This is going to be so much fun!!!!

craftymama 03/15/2008 #

Soft Pink is my absolute favorite color. If you need another color for accent, I'm also a fan of both gray and chocolate brown. This is my first swap and I'm so anxious to get started.

Sprezzatura 03/16/2008 #

Boy, I'm the same as danido..I love greens except mint or pastel. I also like any other color that goes well with green....blue, brown, purple. I'm really not too picky about colors, though.

Hellokittygrl87 03/26/2008 #

autumn4202001 03/26/2008 #

I love all the colors of the rainbow, but my faves would have to be pink or yellow. There's just something about those colors that seems so happy.

Babji 03/26/2008 #

Light Pink or teal/turquoise or both! :D

analteredfairytale 03/26/2008 #

I Love Robins Egg Blue, if you need accent colors light pink, Ivory and chocolate brown is wonderful! I am really looking forward to this swap!

smilesandsunshine 03/27/2008 #

I think I'll go with yellow. I can't wait for the sun to come out again!

mammasan 03/27/2008 #

Any fall colour would be fine for me...mix it up, add some blue, anything is fine.

riah11479 03/27/2008 #

:( I am going to have to drop from this swap. I have had something come up (personally), and I do not know how my time will be over the upcoming month. I will definately do this the next time around (if you do it again). Thanks so much!

mammasan 03/28/2008 #

hellokittygrl87...I would absolutely love to have you as a partner! we'll see.

hallowhimsy 03/28/2008 #

:( I have to leave this swap too. I was really looking forward to it but I don't think I'll be able to properly devote enough time to it. I'm graduating from school May 8th...and I need to focus on doing the very best I can.

mammasan 03/28/2008 #

Seems I will have to leave this swap as you say us only...too bad.

somekindabird 03/29/2008 #

I'd like a sherbert colors palate! so vibrant oranges, reds, greens, and yellows? just no pink or purple please. and i certainly don't mind if there's other colors mixed with the scheme. if that's too much to choose from, just pick one of those, i love all those colors. you can message me if you want to.

catsmeow 03/29/2008 #

I love bright colors, I think I would like my color to be aqua (you can even go to a turquoise if you need, or any in between those two) I love it with a limey kinda green, or a pink.

Midnight 03/29/2008 #

I love bright, neon pink!

sunrooms 03/30/2008 #

turquoise/teal.

if you want other colors to add in: grey, and lighter greens.

bettyinthekitchen 03/30/2008 #

green for me please

Scrapette 03/30/2008 #

I like bright colors...not neon, but bright cheery colors. Spring green, sky blue, sunny yellow, violet...you get the picture. Not black, brown, gray or dreary colors.

weeatcrayons 03/30/2008 #

Fave colors are: purple & silver, red & black

MrsMJ 03/30/2008 #

My color is brown (pink or baby blue accents if you need them.) If you can avoid ATC's, inchies, or dotee dolls, do, but if not that's ok. I would LOVE an amigurumi!!!

NavyBussGirl 03/30/2008 #

I like all shades of greens except neons, throw in silvers and browns. Pretty much Fall colors will be good if you'd like. Thanks!

LindaRuthie 03/31/2008 #

I like shades of aqua and turquoise, or bright greens like kiwi or spring green.

sggcouture 03/31/2008 #

i love browns. blue or brights greens are great accents.

405highway 03/31/2008 #

i love turquoise! also brown and blues. :D

i don't really want any kind of stuffed thing/doll unless it's like... hello kitty. haha. but if that's all you make, that's okay!

crystaljensen 03/31/2008 #

I like all colors except purple and orange, and I really don't like neon anything. Be creative!

paperseed 04/ 9/2008 #
