Description:

Let's do this again - a woman can never have too many pretty pieces of jewellry! But this time, I am assigning a theme: DOLLS!

Remember that a doll doesn't have to be just a human representation - it can be anything as long as it has a FACE: a rabbit, a monkey, a moon, a tree...

This swap is for one pretty handmade pin or brooch (*that is, a decorative piece of jewelry, not a lapel pin or badge) in the style of a doll --- any type/style of doll. The design as well as the medium/material (beads, fabric, paper, clay, metals, buttons, feathers, cord, ribbon, thread, etc.) will be sender's choice.

Need ideas? Just google "fabric+doll+pins" or "paper+doll+pins\". Here are some links to get you started:

For those of you who are into making paper dolls, all you have to do is miniaturize one, seal it with varnish/modge podge, add a pin back, and you have a doll pin!

Please make sure that your 5 favourite colours are indicated in your profile so that we can all incorporate some of them into what we create for our partners.

Anyone without a profile and colours indicated by the sign up date will be banned (I will not be reminding you this time around!). You must also have an average rating of 4 or higher to participate. If you have more than one no send, please contact me to discuss. Newbies are welcome and this is international.

Have fun!

Mar. 10 - If you do not receive your swap please contact me NO LATER THAN APRIL 21 and we will work something out. Thx. Tassy

I don't see a place in the profiles to list favorite colors, so I will do it here: copper, gold, silver, and anything neon (or really bright).

Chris: That's fine to put your colours here. A lot of people put them in the "About Me" section of their profile too - that way they are there for anyone in any swap to refer to. Thanks for joining! Tassy

Robot Shop, what colors do you like?

TerryF 02/25/2007 #

Chris, Robot_Shop\'s colours are in their profile: pink, green, red, orange, brown and yellow.

I got a cute little pin from Timalee. Thanks, I really like it. And thanks for stepping in when my sender flaked.

Timalee, are you Jennifer? I want to be sure I rate the right person.

Thanks-cr

I want to send many thanks to maebeajane, who stepped up and sent me a wonderful pin when my partner flaked. I just wish there was some way I could rate her...Anyway, thanks! It was a wonderful thing to do.
