Description:

Admit it. You love Martha Stewart. She is clever and crafty and a perfectionist--and her ideas are excellent.

This swap is for those people who love Martha and her ideas, and want to make something she demonstrates in her magazines, books, or shows.

Here are the rules for the swap: This is a crafty swap, so you have to make the thing you send.
The item cannot be food. The project should take about 2 hours of your time, and not cost you more than $15 or so, unless you and your partner agree about upping the ante. Work with your partner and your partner's profile so you send something they will like--think of how Martha is so considerate with her gifts for people, and emulate that. Detail makes a difference. Presentation counts, so don't just stuff it in a mailer!

If you are rolling your eyes as you read this description, don't sign up for this swap!

Sorry, but this will be for swappers with good track ratings. To participate, you must have at least 10 good swaps within the past 5 months. If you have ratings under 4.8, you can't participate--sorry! I reserve the right to ban anyone who seems questionable in this regard. I want everyone participating to have a good experience.

I'm putting a long swap period on this one, to let ideas percolate, and to allow for busy schedules.

Finally, Have fun! This is a great opportunity to try those crafts you've been wanting to do!

I don't understand the part of the description that describes "upping the ante" so long as your partner agrees--even if your partner agrees, they are not the one you will reciprocate with you, so I think that should be removed from the description, or just go ahead and up the ante in the description and see who's up for it. I forsee a lot of gray area tied to that otherwise. I love the idea though!

carladallas-- I think that threechickies may be a member of craftster where the partner you send to is the partner that you get from. It's just an oversight on her part.
