Shop the Swap Winter Market-Discussion Thread!

[TroubleT]

I've added two items to my shop!

Buttered Spiced Pecans - Oh MY, these are tasty! I live in the Land of Pecans so I decided to do something different with them this year. My Texan husband approves as he "taste tested" about a cup.

2 cups for a 1/2 pt (portion as shown in picture, that bowl is about 3.5" square and about 3" deep)


Harry Potter Ornaments - I rescued a copy of HP and the Sorcerer's Stone from a book sale and used it to make these. My son loves these!

HP and the Sorcerer's Stone Ornaments (2 for 1/2 pt)

Oh man those pecans look good! I think I know where spending a point!

I've got a couple of things to add to my shop if I can remember to take pics before dark today. The rest of this week is shot, but next weekend I am running walnut and madder dye vats, so there may be dyed stuff (fiber? yarn? fabric? who knows!) heading to my shop the following week.

Today I am making limoncello (well, starting the limoncello), making a lemon meringue pie (with the peeled lemons), dissecting rotting walnuts for the walnut vat (blech), and working on the STSSSS holiday swap. craftaddiction, I found someone to try out the test slippers, and the sizing was good, so I'll be trying to work on those during the week for you.

Also, if anyone is interested in semi-custom sewn wool slippers like this:

Let me know. I have a small supply of fulled wool sweaters and can also make them out of handmade wool felt. The sizing control would be a lot easier than the one-piece felted versions.

Hi all,

Here are a few more new totes for the shop.  These are the rest of the totes I have except for some black, yellow and white scrap totes that I made with Steelers fans in mind.  I live in Pittsburgh where people are crazy about the Steelers.  I noticed there are a few Pennsylvanians in the swap!  Let me know if anyone is interested and I'll try to expedite getting them posted.

Here's a preview of the three new bags

Added a couple TM pieces I've made to the shop. Where'd all my points go?

I'm thinking of having a "clean out my shop" sale so I can buy some things before I head to my mom's next week.  By the time I get back, this swap will be winding up.  Everything is half price!  Come and get some stuff, you guys!

I'm having a sale this week! Buy any item, get a second item free (with the usually equal or lesser value clause) through next weekend.

Wow, so much activity in the swap over the weekend! I'm back and reopened, with Marvy calligraphy markers added (4 for half a point, or 1 for free with any other claim).

I also have 4 different rubber stamp alphabets I'd like to offer as a package, but I'm stumped on how to price them.

They are used; 2 sets are on wooden mounts and the other 2 sets are on improvised foam mounts (which are ugly to look at, so I just stamped some of the letters to show you), and I'm including a storage case for all of them. One set includes upper-case and lower-case letters--so technically it's 5 sets of alphabet stamps  . I bought them all second-hand over the years so I have no idea what they would've cost new. I'm thinking 2 or 3 points?    What do you think is fair and an amount you'd be willing to pay?

 What do you think is fair and an amount you'd be willing to pay?

I'd spend 2-3 points on them! I'd definitely be interested if I can make more points myself.



Sale in my shop!
Nov. 5-9 Buy One Item, Receive One Item Free (of equal or lesser value!) This includes supplies, custom items, and anything else I have in there!

those are nice calluna!  If cloud doesn't end up wanting them I sure do!
btw, what is the size of the ones you stamped out?
