| Seeing this is the beginning of a New Year and some of us start cleaning out our craft supplies. How about filling a shoe box with supplies others may need or want.
Two ways this can be done:
!1...we can each fill a box and send to a partner.
2...one person can start a box with supplies, then send to one person on the list. Second person removes what she would like from that box and replace with what she has and won't need.. Sends that out to the next person and so on. The last person on the list will send to the first person on the list.
So if number one put in twenty items, by the time the box got back to her she should have twenty different items. | | | Be yourself and walk with a smile. | | Member Level up: 16%, 132 Points needed |

| Hi Carcap,
I really like the number 2 idea as long as everyone does their part . That would be so much fun.

| What about handmade greeting cards with envelopes. I received some hand made valentines in my valentine swap and they were so wonderful. There could be a set number of cards, for example; 2 get well, 2 wedding, 2 anniversary, 2 birthday and 2 of your choice. I am always looking for unique cards and it would be nice to have a supply on hand for those unexpected (or forgetful) moments.
Have you done this already? Did I miss it? | | | | | Moderator Level up: 27%, 298 Points needed |

| dash2diner@yahoo.com Hi Everyone, I do alot of plastic canvas, and have hundreds of patterns. I would be glad to share these with anyone that is in the plastic canvas world, and maybe you would have a pattern for me. I am particuarly looking for a pattern for a bicycle. Have been working with plastic for over 20 years, and love new ideas. If you have any questions I might be able to help you with that also. Keep in touch, Dash | | | | |
