[TreeTree]

Woohoo, I'm the first to sign up! and it's my first swap yay!

[jenefor]

Whooo whoo can't wait to see who I get so I can start crafting....my mind is reeling with ideas

[gleep]

This is my first swap too! I'm very excited!

[Qwerty]

it looks like we are getting a good group of crafters together! there are a few first timers so i feel more pressure to make sure that their first swap is enjoyable.

what are some more ideas that everyone has thought up?

[ashestoashes]

I'm in too! It's almost my first swap here, though I'm not new to swapping. I'm still thinking of some ideas, but I have a few in mind. Not sure I want to share yet, as that might ruin the surprise

[jenefor]

Yea same here about sharing my hubby and me have been going over some ideas that might be cool......I cant wait to see who I get and just what they are into so I can start crafting.

Well, I'm not participating, so I'd be happy to throw out a few ideas for new swappers:

Anything with a Dharma label on it - it could be candy, cookies, soap, etc
A desert island journal
Maybe something with the logo for the fast food place where Hurley worked
Something with the Virgin Mary on it
A compass, or some other sort of outdoorsy survival type thingy
Maybe a blank book in which to keep track of various "clues" and conspiracy theories related to the show
A backpack or bag with a map of the island on it
Bookmarks with themes relating to the books Sawyer has been reading (i.e. Watership Down, Bad Twin, and - my favorite - Are You There God? It's Me Margaret)
Something related to tropical fruits like mango or papaya (like scented lotion or soap)
A replica of Eko's "Jesus stick"

Another great place is www.thefuselage.com - it's a forum where people discuss everything, and I mean everything, relating to the show. There's even a board where you can ask questions for the actors. Jorge Garcia and Terry O'Quinn seem to reply quite frequently. It's easy to spend hours there. Don't say I didn't warn you!
