Create me a handmade item :D

hi, i do i get the details of my swap buddy? thanks , want to egt cracking on it.. Tammy ----little wonder crafts

Does it have to be completely handmade? i.e. Does a silkscreened t-shirt count?

Hi, thanks for your words and to joining this swap :) I'm exciting to see that we are more 45 people to sign it !!!

To Little wondercraft : You'll receive informations of your partner after the deadline (30 july) after you have a full month to craft it . You must send your items until the 2 september.

To Flufflyblubox : It's not necessary to be full handmade :) Just added your touch can be a right idea :) The most important: give a few from yourself and use your creativity :) A silkscreened t-shirt count is a nice and special idea (I love it !)

For the others : Some people of this swap haven't a diary/blog . I'm wondering if you want that I do a small questionary ( as fav colors, fav hobbies ...) It'd be a great idea ?

Happy week for everyone

Sounds like a wonderful idea! M.e.

I'm doing it :) I'm sure that this swap will be great :)

This swap sounds like amazing fun! I'm in too! :0)

I'm think also BattyBoredbutterfly ! Happy to welcome you :D

About questionnary

I'll send a e-mail a day before the swap. In this swap I'll include a small questionary. Here a proposal ...

What's do you think? Do you have any idea or want add something?

What a great swap! I'm a paper and polymer clay artist so I hope my partner likes those craft areas. I like the idea of a questionaire so we can get a sense of what our partners will like in terms of color, size, etc. Excited to play!

Hi, As I moved to a new house I didn't have internet for a while (too long I must say) and just after... we had a terrible storm last sunday and ran out internet connection :o( sooooo, today was a surprise since I wasn't expecting it until next week!!! I have to ask my swap partner to excuse me but I really didn't know how to sent my communication to confirm thar I sent my item! Please Christy if you read this (I'm also sending an e-mail if this thing stays on long enough) I just want to let you know that I already sent you my package. Sorry again.

Hi There, I have sent my swap parcel. Hope the receiver loves it as much as I did making it.

Can you let me know if you have a blog site or photos, can't work out who you are from the swap-bot names.

I received a beautiful apron from Tara yesterday. I love it! Thank you so much.
