Number 3 in the MORE series. I am starting it early to give you lots of time to find things

For this swap you will send your partner FIVE DIFFERENT ITEMS with TEA POTS or TEA CUPS in the design or shape. This means 1 package stickers, 1 tea towel, 1 clear stamp, 1 tea wallet and some scrapbooking papers. IT DOES NOT MEAN 5 pkgs of different stickers!!!!

SUGGESTIONS ONLY - note cards, tea wallet, loose tea holder, buttons, ribbon, rubber or clear stamps, recipes for iced tea on a recipe card with a teacup, calender, tea towel, scrapbooking papers or card stock, stickers, punch outs, cookie cutters, paper napkins, postcard, and stamped images. I have actually receive TEA POTS for my collection from swappers - this is costly to mail, but that is totally up to the sender - IT IS SENDERS CHOICE

Get creative and make a note card in the shape of a TEA POT, make an ATC or book mark with tea cups designs. Carve a rubber stamp. Can you sew? Make a tea wallet or a mug rug from fabric that has TEACUPS or TEA POTS on it. Embroider a TEA POT or TEACUP on a coaster

Will allow Newbies with a WELL FILLED OUT PROFILE - that means more than just your fave TV/movies/Music or that you like to craft. Please be specific about what crafts you like, things you collect and fave colours. I will be checking ALL profiles. I will ban anyone who does not comply with this.

If you can not commit to this, then don't signup!!!! You have 3 weeks to find some TEA items and send to your partner - NO FLAKERS WANTED!!!

Send a note with the name of the swap, your swap-bot name and what you like about TEA and this swap. You could also send some tea, but only as an extra. Check partners profile for this as some only like certain types of tea

Decorate the envie with drawings, stamped images & stickers

Any questions?

Most of all HAVE FUN!!!!

Just found some cute tags shaped like a teacup and a note card - still on the lookout for stickers. How is everyone else doing at finding things for this swap?

Donna Lee Have just been around four big shops (equivalent to michaels/joannes in USA) to try and find tea cup things and could only get one item. these were shops in big towns (I live in a rural area with not a lot of choice) so is it okay if i include a couple of cupcake / cooking items. i will then have my five items. making two items from fabric but can't get anymore to make a bag.

@Didi - when partners are assigned, check their profile for a wish list and let them know that you are sending other items. Personally I love everything that someone sends to me in these swaps.

I have made a teacup magnet from air-dry clay - just need to paint it. There are lots of items on the suggestion list that you can make without spending a lot of money.

Hi Donna, same here. Cant seem to find teacups and teapots. lots of tea time cakes and coffee though. But its fine to make handmade ones right?

It is more than all right to make items, in fact it is awesome! I love hand made items more than store bought.

I have been busy making gift tags, tea wallet, a note card and a magnet - guess my partner now knows what she is getting. I have many embroidery patterns of tea pots and hope to finish one for this swap also. That is 5 hand made items!!!!

Partners are assigned - put on your crafty thinking caps and make something beautiful for your partner.

I just remembered I also made a mug rug from fabric with teacups on it - 6 hand made items and I never bought a thing!
