I claim doomcandy for shrinky dinks and maybe some sharpies!

I from the US and this is my first claim.  Here's my list:

1.  Japan - fabric (pm me for more info) anything traditional-ish (printed origami or other paper, kokeshi, cranes, etc), I also love 100yen stores and all the little bags and stickers and other fun stuff they have, craft books/magazines/patterns

2.  Ireland/UK - something Irish dance or Welsh dragon themed (I do Irish dance and my first name is Welsh)

3.  France - it may be tacky, but I collect Eiffel Towers (pm for info), I also love vintage or vintage-looking signs/advertisements/books (especially children's books)/magazines in French

4.  Germany/Switzerland/Austria - traditional Christmas decorations or ornaments, my mom would LOVE a Santa Claus figurine, fabric (Christmas or other traditional)

5.  Scandanavia - pretty much the same as #4

6.  Any other than my own - pm me for ideas

From any country - fabric and beads are always great, especially if they're unique to your country, and I collect magnets (small ones are fine, tacky ones are great)

Thanks!!,

Hi guys,

Quick interruption to mention a couple of things:

1. Please remember that the lists are just suggestions - you have up to 1kg, so remember to represent!!

2. I am having trouble getting the swap onto the list - I think I am doing the feedback form wrong or something - so please bear with me on getting your profiles updated, and please be honest with regards to joining other swaps if this is your fifth.  I am working on this.

3. In the discussion thread, lupinbunny raised the suggestion that we include one small crafted item (obviously within the theme).  I forgot to add this as a requirement - and I figure I have amended the swap enough already! - but this is just something that you might want to think about.

Phew, enough from me, on with the swap!
