OMG we received our package from Cursive Queen and I think she should win an award! It is beyond amazing!!!! We couldn't be more pleased or excited! Take a look at these!!! The slime pillow and Minecraft sign I made for my son's Minecraft room. My partner made the Creeper T-shirt, Creeper pillow, and jumbo MOOSHROOM!!! The pillow and Mooshroom are made of tiny squares all sewn together! How fantastic is that??? THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I'm glad you liked it. Here's a combo picture of the three boxes and the villager. :-)

Sounds neat. I have a bunch of 100+ year old photos (doubles and triples and more) that I've been dying to do *something* with...

Open the Gallery!!!

I'm sending tomorrow!

All packaged and ready to go!

For those of you who asked for pictures of my son's Minecraft inspired room, I'll attach them here.

I ordered the bedding online from Walmart.com. I couldn't ask for a better Minecraft set! (http://www.walmart.com/ip/Loft-Living-Geo-Blocks-Bed-in-a-Bag/14962887). I used the fitted sheet in the bed, but sewed the top sheet into a valance. The creeper head (body was a stove box), Steve head, and TNT head were styrofoam packing crates and they were last year's Halloween costumes and were made with 8.5" x 11" printouts and spray adhesive and a lot of patience :-). The hanging pictures are 8"x8"x1.5" mounted canvases, 11"x17" color prints, and Modpodge. The little wooden boxes on the ledge are from Oriental Trading and spray painted brown, tan, or blue for dirt, sand, or water. The slime pillow was a pillow I had that I sewed slime eyes and nose onto. The Minecraft "poster" was from Ebay but it came in eight 8.5" x 11" sheets which I laminated and mounted. Everything else was bits and pieces that I ordered from Ebay or made. I even have a Creeper clock (not shown). My favorite craft store is Hobby Lobby :-).

Happy Crafting!

I crafted all weekend, and the mailman brought the rest of what I needed today, so I'm all good!

Ok, ok, I'm in. Sign up people! I'd hate to see this swap get cancelled. I'm redoing my son's bedroom in Minecraft decor for Christmas. He's been asking for it, but he doesn't know I'm doing it. It will be a surprise Christmas morning.

Hmmm.... I know this swap was my idea, but honestly, I'm frightened by the "large" item. I haven't done a "large" item swap before....

I received an incredible package from jenleahlynn! She took into account my desperate desire for a Snape-inspired potions kit and did wonderful things with it. I LOVE IT!!!! Pin away people :-).



Thanks!!
Chris

I received my wonderful package from Avesthel some time ago! She was very prompt! I've just been a bit deficient in posting pics, but here they are! I love that she spent so much time working with my favorite color and house preferences and even the potions I like best! She even wrote me a little not telling me what each charm symbolized. I thought the G coin was for Galleon, but after seeing the S coin on another bracelet, I'm guessing the G meant Gryffindor. Even so, I'm wondering where she got these. They'd make neat Galleons.



Thanks so much!

My son is super into Minecraft these days, and I'm redecorating his room in a Minecraft theme. There isn't much out there, though I've made or found some cool things. I thought it might be fun to do a swap. Anyone interested? Creepers? Moo-shrooms? Redstone torches? Anyone?
