All ages allowed? Or 18+?  Yes, just make sure its ok with the parents
Organizer meets the 4 conditions for swapping and will make sure that
every participant meets these conditions: YES
All swappers MUST be pre-approved for this swap!

YOU CANNOT PARTICIPATE UNLESS YOU PM me and I ADD YOU TO THE LIST!

DETAILS:
This is swap is similar to The 2006 Wishlist March Swap PLEASE read all
the details before you join. This is a Wist Swap so in order to participate you
need to create one at Wists.com. This swap is for fellow craftsters to make
stuff you love but can not make yourself.

TO START :
You will look at the Wists of the people who have already
been approved 

THEN:
Once you have chosen someone you must send me a message
telling me who pick and what you will be making them.  When i receive your
message, you must wait for my response letting you know it is ok to
post your link and a little blurb about you, make sure to include the country
you live in for those who do not want to ship out side of their own. Only
approved swappers can post a Wist link. This swap is no longer secret, although you can keep what you are sending a suprise if you wish. Feel free to contact your partner directly with questions and for their address- re the format of wish swaps.

Last but not Least:
You will then can start crafting the item Items must be sent out within
two weeks of selection

Now here are some other rules you need to follow
- to be able to post your link you have to craft for at least ONE person
- you must have AT LEAST 6 items on your Wist ..you can continue to add during the swap
- You can be picked as many times as you have items on your list
- if you get picked a SECOND TIME (note I changed this to keep the swap moving more and be more fair), you must pick another person to craft for if you would like to get picked again (you will be put on hold until you craft again)  I will let you know when you need to pick someone else if you want to receive more items.
NOTE- I am adding two changes to previous versions of this swap. You have to craft again after being picked twice not three times and I'm not going to keep the partners secret. That aspect seemed kind of pointless and unnecessarily complicated.

ALSO- it was pointed out in the gallery that this is a thread where we make things inspired by other people's designs. If you receive a version of something made by a different craftster, make sure you credit the original craftster too when you post in the gallery. Provide a link to their post or website or etsy shop- of course this goes for very unique things and not say a Panta.

If you have any question feel free to pm me

Remember, to post your link, you must craft for one person

Yay! Wist swap again. I didn't get picked last time, so I'll start then.

Short introduction: I am a teacher. I live in Sweden. I teach philosophy, psychology and ethics to 16-18 year-olds. It's a dream job!

Some things I like: greyscale, silver, blue, metal, computers, technology, logics, glass, black, the fifties, the sixties, modern art, geometrical shapes... but I like all sorts of styles so you really cannot go wrong.

Cheers!

i didn't get picked last round, either so i'll go ahead and do my thing here.

hi, my name's Tasha and i'm 22 years old. due to an unhealthy obsession of Dawson's Creek (gimme a break, it started when i was in 8th grade!), i now live in my "city of dreams", Wilmington, North Carolina (where the show was filmed, and is now the filming location of One Tree Hill as well as countless movies).

i like to knit first and foremost, but i dabble in embroidery and other crafts. i'm somewhat of a "yarn snob", opting to knit with animal fibers as opposed to acrylic and things like that.

Noone else wants to join?   

[raina]

Well i'm interested, but i haven't noticed anything on someone's wist that I feel comfortable making. so i'm waiting for someone else to add their stuff so that i can get rolling.

[eveelle]

I'm interested in joining also. I can't right now though because I'm in the process of finishing my first swap here on craftster. So maybe sometime in October. =)

[kidcompassion]

my turn... i'm sally, and i'm in edmonton, canada.

i like girly stuff, like lace and frills and pink and polka dots... but i'm not a girly person. i love anything retro, strong female role models and irony. ah, sweet irony.

also, i can only wear clip on earrings. my ears are not pierced.   

my wist: http://www.wists.com/kidcompassion

if you choose me, please feel free to add your own creative touches to whatever you make, or to use my list as "inspiration" for something. i'll love anything you make!
