Those in red haven't checked in or updated me yet.

Yay clay!!!!

Is anyone else concerned about those we haven't heard from?

Unfortunately, I'm not going to have mine done in time. As usual, I procrastinated, and then ended getting a severe case of bronchitis. I lost my voice and couldn't work for almost two weeks. I came back to work last week and hoped to finish my matchboxes over the weekend, but I was so tired I didn't do any work on them at all.

As it stands I have 4 finished. I'll finish the others up over the next few weeks as I get more energy back and mail them out to you individually, if you don't mind giving me your addresses.

I am so sorry to disappoint everyone who I know has worked so hard to make this project and meet the deadline. I know that I won't be able to participate for the next six months.

Yay!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry to hear this.

I'm so excited to see everyone's work!!

And next......
 

Sorry I'm not familiar with these. Should I just google or will someone be kind enough to explain them to me?

Oh, thank you! My art abilities are limited and restricted to stick people! Could I draw stick people in various postions and then write famous quotes by famous people?

An example might be......A stick person bending over and the quote of Joan River's "If God wanted us to bend over, he would of put diamonds on the ground"

I would love to do some ATCs but can we stretch it out a little bit? This project isn't 100% over yet.





We tend to leave religion and religious icons out of it, plus that's a lot of text.

Simple is good. Don't overthink things.

:blink:

I vote ... YES! And YES for nanners to wrangle. I would like the information/sign up sooner than later with maybe a generous amount of time to complete?!?

I think I can get them to you by Wednesday next week. With any luck, maybe I can even finish the rest over the weekend so you'll have them all. I'll let you know by Monday.

I took a break on this last one! Feel free... if so inclined... to share your wee matchbox crafts! I'd love to see them! :koolaid:

I like ... POSTIMAGE ... for photo hosting... quick / easy, you can resize the photo there so you don't have to adjust/fiddle with anything on your cell or camera!

I did think of a theme, I would like it to be NATURE. Here are the negotiable things:

Deadline dates? More time to complete
Limit the number of people to sign up? Yes
Dollar amount to send to wrangler? Needs to be increased

Maybe 7$ to wrangler, double if out of US?

The projects should be mailed on the 28th. Maybe hold the sign ups open until after that?


Isn't this what we decided last year? When did we talk about this last?

My memory is crappola.

:blink:

I think you are correct.

I agree we hold sign ups when this project has officially finished.

Also, yes we did agree on an increase to the Wrangler for costs.
