Ooh, I didn't even think about people wanting specific birds. I just like... Birds!

Me too! I was trying to think, and honestly I get annoyed if there's too much of one kind. It's the variety of birds that I like! Pet or wild. Brown or rainbow colored.. all works for me.

Hi - I'm back after a loooong travel day yesterday. Will take some time to add the new applicants and add sugaree as co-organizer.

You can definitely ask what type of birds your partner likes. I think I just like generic bird shapes and bird-shaped things....if that's not too vague. It's the idea of birds although I own two parakeets.

I like bird shapes too, of all kinds, but I do have favorites. I just want to know my partners likes so that I can tailor my crafting more to her tastes.

I just made a bird-themed swap package for another swap and found something that worked really well. I'd love to translate it to a bigger item.

I love drawing birds and sculpted a number of bird-related things when I was at uni studying art. I carved bird shapes out of polystyrene, covered them in plaster bandage and white wax and gave them thick wire legs. I then installed them at the beach and udner bridges.

I also did some drawings of my pet budgie and made the line drawings scaled up out of thick wire welded together. I think some are hanging in my back yard.

schnerby - that's fantastic!  i would be so tickled to randomly see a sculpted bird at the beach!
