Sign-up date range: 03/28/2011 - 04/08/2011
Date to send kit by: May 16th 2011

Limited to a certain number of people? No, I will get a co-org or PM a swap mod if necessary.

Restricted to people who all live in the same country? No

If you are in the US, please consider shipping internationally. Light kits may not be as expensive as you might think. For reference, if you ship first class international (not priority, and not the flat rate priority boxes), it would be $5.01 for a one pound package to Canada and $10.76 for one to the UK. If you don’t want to send all you kits internationally, just tell me in your signup. For example, maybe you can only afford to send one kit internationally but can send 3 kits total. Or maybe it is too expensive to send your book binding kit internationally, but you can on the other kits. Or you will ship to North America but not overseas. Just let me know. To avoid confusion, please be a clear as possible.

IF YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE, REMEMBER TO SEND YOUR INFO TO THE ORGANIZER VIA PRIVATE MESSAGE AND NOT TO REPLY WITH IT HERE.
** There might be a lot of questions asked before swap partners are given just to make sure that everyone is matched up well, the quicker to respond to my questions the faster we can get partners! This swap will take a lot of communication!!!**


Also, remember to read the Swap Info Guide to find other rules about participating in a swap.

To give you ideas, I will list all the kits people are offering and what they want to learn. Go ahead and sign up. If you see something you want to add to your list later, that is no problem. Just PM me with any changes before the swap closes. So I don’t get inundated with PMs about changing lists, let say one PM (about this) per person. You can keep a list of all the changes you want made, and then PM me a day or so before the swap closes.

I haven't done this swap in awhile, I will sign up as soon as I can get the lappy from hubbie.

[v3nu5]

This sounds like fun, perfect one of my own crafts and help another perfect theirs? I have to talk to my hubby 1st.

[DizzerSpinninRound]

alrighty, just sent in my questionnaire! Hopefully we get some people to join that want the things I can make I can make more things, but I just listed things i can explain well and craft in a limited time frame, since I don't have as much time to craft as I used to

[Whistley]

[redpopsicles]

This is such a great idea! I'm definitely going to be joining this swap, it looks like a ton of fun. I've been stalking the previous swap galleries and whoever made the polymer clay Harry Potter trio is awesome!!
