It would be helpful to have a number instead of "handful." I don't want to be accused of being stingy if my handful is smaller than someone else's.

SaReMa 03/ 8/2007 #

Changes made.

Not too taxing on the brain, great I'm in.

jewels1 03/ 8/2007 #

How fun! I'm in!

I love buttons and am a buttonholic if there was such a term. LOL... I like to recycle old clothes and put them in my fabric studio and so I come up with a lot of buttons. I think a button swap would be fun, so count me in.

hmmm, I think I could do this one! I am a button collector too, and this sound pretty easy even tho the turn around is a bit fast... susi

Jox 03/12/2007 #

Yeeeeeeeh, I love buttons! I am going to start sorting them now. This is also a good excuse to go shopping for new ones. Hurray!!!!

alicepalace 03/15/2007 #

Hi! I love the idea of this swap. I have a teeny request: please, please could whoever gets assigned to me wait till the 24th or after to send to me? I am moving on that day and will add my new address then. If in doubt, please message me. (I don't want to add the new address beforehand just in case something goes wrong. You (possibly) know what rental agents can be like... :) Cheers, Alice

I sent my buttons off to Spain and California this afternoon. I wrote my partners that I would post a link to a story I heard recently on the radio about China's Button Town. It's very interesting, http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5686805

user6248 03/21/2007 #

Whee! Both my partners' names started with "M" and their packages were sent today, down to California and up to Washington from Oregon. I got a kick out of that.

memmu and HandyOne, your buttons are on the way. I'm sorry if they are late, my husband recently totaled my car (it rolled down the hill at my parents house and it crashed into a walnut tree) and I have been a little preoccupied with finding a replacement. I hope you enjoy them!

starofsong 04/ 5/2007 #
