How about it? I know there are alot of swaps going on, but I had this idea and had to go with it!
We would need 4, 8, or 12 swappers or 5, 10, or 15 if you include 'spirit' with air, fire, earth and water.
Each person picks an element and makes a craft relating to that element. i am thinking under $10 and something nature table like.
***now I'm thinking $6-$10
***(upped the date 2 weeks)We could ship items to me by September 15th and then mail them out to you right after....tho the date can be later.....
what cha think?
Ok, we have 1 maybe and 9 sign ons, so I am thinking we should include spirit......it's the 'one' elemental I am at odds with, lol, Bonnie knows what I mean! lol
We have:
Maegansmama(me).........air
Huntersmama.................water(or fire)
lazygirrl is a maybe..........spirit
hastings.......................spirit (or earth or water)
Korwynne.....................fire
Sunflower.....................earth (or water)
Mom2kbeth...................air (or fire)
Lovebugsmama..............earth
BlueRoseMama..............water
fairyglitterbug...............fire
******Now we are all doing 10 items............This is from before: we would only make 5 of each item!!! 1 to keep and 4 to send out. This would be two sets of elements..........unless everyone wanted 2 elemental sets.....but I don't think so, lol, so even tho their are going to be 10 of us you won't receive from everyone. I may ask another mama to be 'head' of the 2nd set of elements....Bonnie maybe! lol I can do both, but I wouldn't be keeping a second set, so there's no sense in all 9 other mommas sending to me, I am rambling, talking out loud here, hope I'm not confusing anyone!
I am really excited to this swap!
So your $6-$10 valued item, can be something you foundin nature and embellish, something you knit, sew, felt, mold, anything!! We can list ideas or keep it in surprise mode......10 of each.

I'm in Stacey - but could we move the date up just a bit? I an in 4 other swaps that are due between now and the first, but only one due after the first (the 12th). Could we give this one another week? The 8th? Pretty please? LOL!
I want either air or fire please

Question, do we make enough for each of the swapers? So if there are 8 swapers, I have to make 8 items? If so, I vote we keep the number to 8/10 or less. It gets hard when you have to make so many items.
ok, I just updated the info!
We have 9 in and lazygirrl is a maybe
We only need to make 4 extra items each (plus one for yourself).
Let start thinking about what element and what you will make, does anyone need ideas, we can brainstorm
I'm so excited!
Woohoo!
so we are doing like 2 groups in the swap?
i woudl liek to do either fire or water, but i think it would be awesome to get something from every mama so i woudl be totally okay with doing 10 of everythign if everyone eles agrees
hmmmm.....
