I was going to do street clothes for Lucy, but I can go either way. Also what size are you making? I was going to make Lucy small, like 2.5" I was also curious as to whether people were painting faces or not.

Now..are we going to make the bendies with street cloths..or....in their royal wear...LOL

Yay, I found a cute bag to make, and I think it'll be the right size..... Finished size is 10.5 wide x 11.5 tall
My question is, for colors, I was wondering if there were preferences. I was thinking deeper colors like forest green, wine, dark purple, navy..... they seem more suited to the theme, and they won't show dirt as easily either. What do you think????

I personally prefer bendies without a face but if you want to paint them that's up to you.

Great..I though Edmund being the younger boy would be about this bendie size

I do not plan on painting faces for the Edmund bendies.

I wasn't going to put a face on the dwarf I was making, but cindy knows how I feel about bendy faces.

That is the swap shipping dates sticky. In the first post is the listing of all the swaps that are currently running, their mailing dates, how many items to send, the contact person and who is in the swap

Narnia is the last one on the list because we don't have a definite ship date yet.

We just finished the chapter with the stone table splitting and I got in my head an idea for a splitting stone table ... s oadd that to what I am making. As long as my idea works I will be sending the sledges, reindeer and the splitting stone table.

Kris ... how big is your Aslan goin got be? I need ot know that for the size of the stone table.

I prefer my bendies to not have faces either. I don't plan on faces for Susan or Mr Tumnus.....Mr Tumnus will have facial hair though. I will make Susan a 3" doll and probably will make Mr Tumnus the same size (does that sound right?)

I also think the earthy tones for the bag will be good.

i'm on a waldorf craft list and the listowner I think is sarah from www.sarahs-dolls.com, anyhoo, thought you narnia fans might enjoy this or get inspired, it's a doll, not a bendie, but adorable and fairly priced

I saw that and she is so cute!

huntersmama · 01-17-2006, 05:43 PM

wow, everything sounds so great

I also prefer no faces on our bendies so my Peter will be faceless and probably about 3.5' tall, I was going to do street wear but royal wear would be sooo coool to.

maybe when things calm down a wee bit we can do a Narnia part 2?

royal wear and some extras

Bonnie, I'm not sure how big Aslan will be just yet likely around 3.5 at the shoulders and 4' long
hmm...whateles....

Oh Baabay I think the colors you listed sounds great.
