this is an international swap*

since we are green folk that means we DO believe in fairies! !!!

this year for midsummer i would like to offer more than just sweet cakes, milk and butter to the wee folk, i want to set up a little playplace for them in our garden.......

so i am going to create a series of swaps where we will make and decorate fairy furniture and maybe even a wee fairy house!!!

for this swap we will begin with an easy matchbox bed......using a small matchbox is just fine, anything bigger is senders choce but think mini.

use moss, flowers (dry or paper, etc) glitter.....shiny fabric....anything you feel would look whimsical and decorate one small fairy bed and

send to 1 partner!

check out etsy for inspiration....or google images" fairy furniture".......".fairy house" or even flickr........ questions, comments???

*your house doesnt have to look like this one with posts, BUT its easy to simply glue some sticks/twigs to the corners of the matchbox with a glue gun.....

the requirement is only a flat bed, decorated and made from a small matchbox......

Being an International swap--it's important to check on the mailing regulations for different countries--for instance, you can't send anything with twigs or natural materials to Australia. You can make things out of fake materials, but nothing organic.

Fairy doors are another nice thing for this series

Ooooh, I tried making a fairy garden, but something didn't go as planned, so this is perfect!! Thank you so much for starting this swap!

ooh the dorrs were awesome!!

Am I understanding it right that a matchbox is just the minimum requirement? I can use something else as the base of the bed? Because I have this little oval wood box I wanna use, it is just around the size of a matchbox, a little bigger maybe. Is it okay to use that?

threesweetpeas 03/24/2010 #

that is just fine, i only wanted to give a general size requirement and show that mini is fine, anything larger is ok too...but my idea was that everything should be tiny, not large enough to be barbie doll size beds........

a small wooden box is also just fine!!!

threesweetpeas 03/24/2010 #

what would you all like to see next in the series???

i am thinking....maybe a tiny house????

ok partners are out, get to swapping and please be sure to comminicate any issues,

also i find that it IS a good idea if you are sending late.to communicate via swap-bot mail but ALSO post your message here in this forum under the swap...sometimes messages get lost thru s-b mail and if its here there is dated proof oyu DID contact your partner:)) just a tip from experience:)))

I just shifted to a new house, I had my walls painted, I got a new wallpaper for my bedroom even, I even fixed windows and lights and bought a comfy bed which I love more than I should. But I couldn't find a suitable table and chair for my living, I wa looking for a table with atleast four sitting. Than I come acrossed cdf furniture, click here to learn more. They have the best designs and helped me chose the best product for my living. Now my living is better than ever and I m in love with every inch of it. The colours and material of chairs and table is so good and soft.

Wow, it is some in depth research you have done here, amazing. I couldn't find any reference for cabinets mission viejo though- did you cover them as well? I think you should have since you worked on furniture and cabinets.

"Hello! I totally understand how daunting the process of selecting the right kitchen furniture can be. From my experience, the choice between custom-made and ready-to-assemble (RTA) cabinets largely depends on your budget, timeline, and the specific needs of your space. Custom cabinets offer the advantage of being tailored to your exact dimensions, which is great for maximizing space and ensuring a perfect fit. However, they can be quite expensive and take longer to be ready.

On the other hand, RTA cabinets like the ones you can find at Cabinets Bay, especially the Steam White Shaker line, are a fantastic option if you're looking for quality and style without breaking the bank. These cabinets come in various sizes, including a 15 wide three-drawer base cabinet that offers ample storage and a sleek design, perfect for modern kitchens. You can check it out here: Steam White Shaker 15 Wide Three Drawer Base Cabinet.

When considering cabinet drawer sizes , think about what you'll be storing. Utensils and smaller items might only need standard drawers, but pots and pans will require larger ones. The key is to balance functionality with aesthetics—ensure your chosen cabinets meet your storage needs while also complementing your kitchen's design. Ready-made solutions can sometimes offer the best of both worlds, providing standard sizes that fit well in most spaces. Remember, the right choice is the one that aligns with your specific needs, aesthetic preferences, and budget. Good luck with your kitchen renovation!"
