"INITIALLY YOURS" CRAFT SWAP


EDIT: Connie, you need to leave a blog address, or email address, so I can contact you!

I'm hosting a new craft swap! I call it "Initially Yours". Participants will be paired with another person and, what you will do is, make something for them using only their first initial. (ex., S for Susan) You can make whatever you want: a tag, jewelry, clay, wood letter, etc.; thick, thin, big, small (just remember you have to pay the postage if it's big and heavy!) There are no limits but just be considerate regarding cost involved.

Sign-up will open Monday, May 9 and close Sunday, May 15th by leaving a comment on this post. Monday, May 16th I will randomly pair up everyone and post the list. Then you can find out what your partner's interests are if you need ideas for colors and embellishments, etc.

You will have a month to work on your project and mail it to your partner no later than Monday, June 13th. On the 13th I will make a Linky post where you can show off what you received!

Have fun!

    I do not craft (unless you count sports as craft), but I support you. Hope you are having a wonderful Mother's Day.
