Description:

Those powder and mirror compacts that were once a staple in women's purses seem to hold so much recycling potential! This swap is to take the case of a compact - new or vintage, and re-make it into something else.

I recently made one into a pocket picture frame by decorating the front and cutting a mat board insert for the inside that would frame a small picture. I could also see them as miniature purses, needle cases, bead minders...I bet you can think of a few things too! Maybe you just want to decorate the outside and let your partner decide what to stash inside!

This is a swappers choice - but if you want hearts, look through your partner's profile and fill the compact or add to your package some special goodies, just for them!You'll have 3 weeks to complete the project after partners are assigned.

This is my first time to host - so if you have suggestions to make this better or the description more clear, let me know.

The nitty-gritty: No swappers with less than a 4.5, and no "no sends" in the last 6 weeks. Newbies please convo me if you would like to join. I'm not opposed - just need to make sure you're serious. I'm not sure I'll have time to angel this, so Please, please, please don't flake if you sign-up. Thanks!!!!

Since my package is going "across the pond" I thought I had better get it on it's way. I've uploaded a picture to the gallery - Don't look Moonwalkmazza unless you don't mind ruining the surprise;)
