Last day to signup/drop:February 7, 2013
Date items must be sent by:March 11, 2013
Number of swap partners:4
Description:

For this swap, we will send each of our 4 partners 6 small, wrapped --- with some kind of hanger/bow --- made by you items. Total = 24 items.

I am giving us lots of time to do this one. The items don't have to be complicated or expensive to make - try to use what you already have and make things that are fast and easy. Things you can "make" on your computer are also acceptable, as long as no more than 3 of the 6 items are made this way. No food items please. lol

Some ideas:

magnets
tags
labels
washi tape (lots of online tutes for this)
envelopes
lip balm
eraser stamps
embellished paper clips
brads
stick-on embellishments
decorated clothespins
recipe cards
ATCs
PCs
notecards
letter sets
bookmarks
ornaments (for any holiday or just for everyday use)
pincushions
needle books
brooches
finger puppets
knitted/crocheted dishcloths
hot pads
swap cards
tea wallets
bracelets

You get the idea! Just make sure to send your partners things they will use - for example, if they don't sew, a needle book is probably not a good idea.

Don't forget to include your SB name and the name of the swap with each item.

(Please rate your partners a 5 as soon as you receive their swaps and, after Christmas, go back and update the ratings.)

Open to all group members in good standing but I reserve the right to screen as I see fit. (";)

Have fun!
