Hmmmm…let me check on that one for ya.

[Fonduie (Shannon)]

Yay! Magnets made it in!!!

Okay, as far as how many swaps you can sign up for/have going at one time:

You can have 5 active swaps at one time. So, if you are not active in a swap at this time, you can sign up for 5. If you are in a swap that you have not sent yet, then adjust the sign up accordingly.
The same guidelines apply.

Swap Rules

Organized swaps take place on Lettuce Crafts in the Crafty Shenanigans board. Swaps come in many shapes, sizes, and forms, but the basic idea is that you make a great crafty package that meets the swap’s theme and requirements and takes into consideration your partner’s wishes and preferences. You send the package you created to them and they send the package they created to you! Swaps are lots of fun; they can motivate you to create something really great and it’s often a fun challenge because …

@kittykill

You can have 5 active swaps at one time.

yay thanks for checking.

[EriChanHime (Erin)]

Woo-hoo! I’m super excited about this, y’all. I’ve missed my crafty goodness. I see three that I wanted to do on the approved list, so depending on the timeline and extent of the swap requirements, I am totally here for this!

I will think about the book swap - I’m thinking pocket size but not mini.
Maximum 5" x 7" and closer to 4"x6".

Any thoughts? Alter a book cover and add in your own pages?

[Fonduie (Shannon)]

I haven’t made a book for a looooong time but I’m down for this one!!! For me, any size will do!

4x6 to 5x7 works for me.
I’m open to any ideas. Altering a cook cover and adding in pages sounds find. Are you going to suggest a number of pages or signatures?

[Smmarrt (Susan - You can just add more paint!)]

Mmmmm, at least 2 signatures with about 25 - 35 pages? I use a lot of Nancy Drew covers and I’ll have to count the pages when I get home from work.

[calluna]

Concertinas/accordion books, though…or interactive parts (ie pop ups)…or non-traditional structures that don’t lend themselves to signatures… There are so many possibilities! I’d just want it to be one’s best effort and something that took some time and consideration. Like even if it were a quick and easy style of bookbinding, it would have something really creative involved in the content or cover. Questionnaire could specify preference for a book with things in it or a blank book. Sending just the cover does help with postage.

ETA: So. Many. Enticing. Swaps. Ah, what a nice problem to have!

Handmade Journal Swap is posted!

Handmade Journals Swap

Let’s make some books, well, a book. You will hand make a book for your partner in the pocket-sized range. The book should be about 5" by 7" or there about. You can use an old book cover or make one yourself with book board. The cover and inside covers can be decorated in a theme on your partner’s list. The inside pages can be a mix of papers (like a junk journal/smash book) or sketch/watercolor/mixed media paper - again, you will follow your partner’s ideas and suggestions. The book should cont…
