Ongoing Offer What You Have (Crafts/Supplies) Swap - May

[Miss Violaceous]

I'm Miss Violaceous, and this will be my second claim. I claim dyabolica for the set of pinup pouches.

1. (combineable) Old neckties. Vintage/used from my father's closet. Most of them are wrinkly, and a few show wear, but they are pretty much standard for old tie recon project quality. Take as many as you want.




2. Red sweater that I felted until it was small enough to fit a baby. It needs to be de-fuzzed (shaved?) a bit, and de-linted (I was in a hurry and it was in my closet), but it is a great bright red, and thick, strong felt.



3. (combineable) Pastel madras cotton/poly blouse. This was part of my businesswear rotation because it was so easy to care for, but eventually I yanked it when I lost weight and didn't want to wear dowdy things that hid my middle anymore. It's a woman's S, and the colors are quite pretty. I don't see any obvious wear or stains. Cut it up and make something cool. The only reason it's still here and didn't go to the thrift store long ago is because I thought I might make something with it someday.



4. One custom made pair of earrings on silver french hooks, made with materials from my stash. Mostly glass, a lot of various silvertone acoutrements, all different colors possible. Here's a taste of what I can do:



5. Four vintage button bobby pins. You choose from earth tone, bright colors, metallic, or shiny. Or some combination. Limited black buttons avavilable, too. Or combine two bobby pins with one combineable item.


6. (combineable) Black Lace, with rose pattern, 32x60"



7. (combineable) One skein Sugar N' Cream Cotton in Sunshine.

8. Two balls of Lion Brand Fun Fur in Copper. Picture from Lion Brand's website.

9. One skein of Danger Yarn!
I bought a bunch of yarn from a certain independent dyer, and apparently a lot of people have had problems with this particular line bleeding badly, purchased at around the same time I bought mine. It's a wool-silk blend in a gorgeous navy-gold-green colorway, but read the following before you claim it:

Here's a picture from the seller, but the colors aren't exactly true... in particular the green is punchier. http://images.etsy.com/all_images/f/f80/81f/il_fullxfull.5824543.jpg
You need to either knit it up and never, ever get it wet, or try and wash the excess dye out before use and risk it having light spots or felting. If it isn't claimed, I'll eventually try washing it, but I figure someone out there who is daring and likes the colors might want to give it a go!

[raynbow]

I'm raynbow, and I've been approved and I'm going to be brave and see what I can do with the Danger Yarn.  This is my third claim (1 shipped).



Set #1 McCall's 8334 Sizes (46,48) Extra Large and Simplicy 7469 Size A (XS-XL)


Set #2 Simplicyt 0515 Size RR (14,16,18,20) and Simplicty 9532 Size RR (14,16,18,20)


Set #5 Simplicity 5359 Size RR (14,16,18,20) and McCalls 2854 (Children's)


Sunflower no sew applique:


12 red white and blue plastic "cause" bracelets.  I tried to bead them, and it worked out ok, but was too much effor for my laziness.  I'm sure someone else can come up with something neat to do with them.



One covered Altoids tin.  The lid comes completely off.


One brown stained glass covered bic pen.   Ink is replaceable.


Two yellow-gold sun barettes with rust colored highlights.


Choose any 10 beads, mix and match.

Other random stuff!


Leavings Dolls & Leavings Doll Kit


I have a big box full of all kinds of bits of lace.  Quite a bit of it is vintage.  There are long pieces, short pieces, alot of white, but quite a bit in colors as well.  I'll happily add a big handful of lace to my list.  Just let me know what colors/widths you prefer.  This is just a sample of what is in there, there is lots more.



Four skeins of tapestry yarn


Around 10 identical valentines day cards.


10 small plastic 'goodie' bags with red and purple hearts on them.


A bunch of small plastic rings of varying sizes.


A bunch of small metal rings of varying sizes.


Plastic curtain clips!

I don't have pictures, but I recently got a TON of knitting needles from my mom's house.  Single points, double points, and cingulars.  Mostly metal.  Mostly vintage.  Most are still in great condition.  Some are a little bent or wiggly, but still useable for collage or some other non-knitting use.  Lets say 3-4 pairs for a claim?  When you claim, PM me with sizes/types you want and I'll match as close as I can.  I still haven't measured them, sorry! But amongst other things I know I have a bunch of small size (1-3) dpns and alot of small/medium sized straights (3-6).

Combine any of these items with anything else on the list:


Doll sized gardening gloves.


Valentine's cards for sister & grandmother.  Take either or both.
