Team Swap Time: Spring Tweets Swap


Brandy of ekioart has graciously accepted the title of Swap Queen for our team! A big thanks to her for helping us all build our group! Swaps are a time consuming thing to organize and we're so glad to have someone willing to take on the job. Brandy will be heading up regular swaps for our team and has already worked up our first challenge. It's a cute one!

Swaps are great fun. They are a way to stretch your creativity, make something you may not think to make otherwise and to trade for someone else's fantastic creation. Sound pretty great? It is! Here are the rules, if you're interested please view the yahoo group link here to see her email address, where you'll send your info. Happy swapping!

Spring Tweets Swap.

This swap will be all about birds. Swallows, Robins, Blue Jays, Mockingbirds,
DoDo's you name the bird this swaps about it! From their adorable and unique nests to
their little flitting tails.

Here's the low down.

A. This swap will be one lovingly crafted item from you to your partner. Lets
say it's a Medium. Medium is considered (by time) 2 or more hours, (by size)
one single necklace or bracelet, a scarf, (by cost) $10-$30 dollars. Now, if you
want to do a couple of smalls instead of one med that's fine too. And if you
want to do one Large that's fine too, just make sure your partner knows so they
don't feel bad when it arrives and they only sent you a med.

B. Time limit. Lets start this puppy on May 20th and say send outs are June
15th. That's nearly a month to do one swap item. Of course, you can always send
earlier, I just want to give everyone plenty of time as I know there are plenty
of spring things to do!
