Thank you!

Zimmeh

ok, I will pass this wrangle up. I'm excited to get my creative mojo on...come on Saturday morning!

Stepfordfemm...your rules rock!

My apologies, I'm afraid I'm the reason the half inchies are going out late, I've been in and out of the hospital with chest pains and it took a bit to start feeling human again, to name just one event.

Have you gotten mine yet? And-damn it!-I forgot to sign them! It's a puzzle, by the way.

No worries, while I haven't received yours, I know they were mailed out, and I'll let you know when I receive them, okieblu.

Thanks AHK! I'll leave it open to the posts for another day. If the consensus is one-to-one exchange the postage ship to the recipient makes much more sense!

I thought nine smaller pieces with the 2.5 months is enough time, but I'm worried about cost too.

Will you be participating either way 9 piece vs 1-for-1?

If so, not a problem? I'll sign you up!

I'm also one who prefers to do a 1 to 1 with a project like yours. I'd rather do one really kick ass piece on an intensive project, and something amazing back, too. I feel the quality does suffer when making a lot of something like this. Also, agreed postage is a concern. It takes a lot to mail out 9 Altoid tins, never mind 9 times nine projects. If you are receiving nine projects from nine people--that's 81 projects right there. Not counting yours. It really doesn't seem to make sense to me for this particular project, because a lot of them may be three dimensional. Depending on what people do, it could be very expensive s ive! Just my 2 cents. Whatever the group wants is fine.

I think the project is a brilliant idea, but I would only participate if it was 1 to 1 swap.

And then we can also fit in besame's project too :-)

I feel the same way.

Deadline date, or Total of sign ups.
 

Love it. Like the "you name it", that is creativity ! Thank you. Have fun wranglin' .Can't wait...oh, first!
Question, can you clarify the Sat sign up. RE: Deadline
Is it first 10 who sign up , or will it close on Sat? (as happened one other time) ( 9 items to create)?
I believe it will remain open until the 10 are signed up..?..
Here's my whine with cheese:wine: I don't want to miss the signups..Will be at a MayDay event in a Calif. state park and may not have cell coverage. I'll watch for the post.
(nanners will you call me, soon as you see the post, and ...I'll get it, or not ;) :rrose:) thanks.

This goes on my list of things I never would have thought of! :|

I once painted and glazed dried cicada shells in Ohio and strung them on a necklace. It was a surprising success! Only available every seven years!

Okieblu, they arrived! nanners go out on Saturday in the mail to me and then I will mail everyone their packages! :)

Im hoping mine get there tomorrow!!

Really? Because there are cicadas 'hatched'-whatever it's called-every year, so you should be able to find shed shells every year. Yeah, I used to collect them as a kid. But I had never thought of using them like that. That is way cool. I have seen beautiful stuff done on textiles though, with some types of beetle casings-the back the is so colorful and pretty on some. I can't remember now, but I think there was at one time, a particular textile done in some region of India, doing that.

Excellent! I'm looking forward to it! I'll explain how mine works then.

I'd love to do the tins one. There are places online to order tins same size and shape as the altoid tins, WITHOUT the bumpy, raised letters on the cover, and NO PAINT TO STRIP! The ones I found were pretty cheap too.

I also love the matchbox one. That's the most inexpensive of the two, and lighter weight as well, so it would be less expense all around. I could actually manage the coast of doing 10-15 of these, if we had plenty of lead time.

Memories
 

Have a good day, and relax that back.
Leaving soon for the state park

I would like to do the 9. I get better with practice and enjoy the excitement of seeing as much of our community creativity, and connections as possible.

Even if it is a simple piece of paper, with a colored picture, or beautifully created sewing, handiwork, scrapbooking or something store bought, it's the thought. etc.
We all get to do More...of fun stuff...I did 10 individual oil paintings on canvas and put them on easels for one of the projects, because , that is what came to my head.

I have coloring book pieces on my fridge and a cardboard flower pot cara created one spring. I have a necklace and a keychain from others. So, just sayin....

Ditto..logging in from McDonald's:byebye:

Not in this time. Have fun.

I'm in, too!!!

We need two more folks...unless there is a deadline of signing up. (#11 is missing from list)

Sis- I am thinking once our names are drawn, we'd be pmd the information. That's what I gather-but I can be wrong.

Can I still join? It will be a great way to relax after work and I'm looking forward to it.

Gracias!
