Please check in so I know you are still with us--thanks!! If you have been chatting with us this week, I have your name checked off

Partners are posted here--some of us have more than one spot and answered questions differently to reflect this so if your partner has more than one spot there will be a number in brackets next to their name--this is the set of questions you need to refer to for their wishes. PM me if you have any questions or concerns and confer with your partner as well. Have fun!! Forgot to say I took a 3rd spot to make an even number.


Find your name in the left column and then the person and number you are making for is in the right column. If there is no number after the name in the right column then that person has only one spot. = sent and recieved

UPDATE--This will close at 6 PM tonight and I will be working on the partners after that. I have to go out fora little while and do some errands with DH but after that I will be assigning the partners. I have a busy weekend with a DAR meeting and luncheon tomorrow and then on Sunday is the scrapbook and stamping show in Springfield, Massachusetts with JeanP!!If you have any questions, please pm me or post on the thread and I will get back to you as soon as possible. And please pm me your e-mail address if I don't have it--Thanks.

I have decided to do another partner swap for chunky dangle charms. You will have different partners if you were in the last round. This time your partner will list two themes and a style for you to work with. You get to pick one theme and create a chunky charm in the listed style. You will need to get to know your partner and personalize your creation to reflect her choices. You get to know your partner by chatting on the thread. It’s great to communicate with everyone in this swap as we can learn from each other. Each participant needs to answer the following questions. If you want two spots, you may answer the questions differently for each if you choose. POST 5 will have everyones answers but please read their posts for more details!!

1. What style would you like in this round?
2. Name two possible themes that your partner can choose from.
3. Are there any colors you DON’T want?

If you have not been in a swap with me, please get another MB member that has to vouch for you—this will help cut down on flakers. I will not let anyone on any flakers list sign up. New people are welcome as long as someone I know vouches for them. This may sound harsh but part of my responsibility as hostess is to make sure this is a stress free swap and that everyone gets their dangle charm in a timely fashion. I realize that sometimes events do happen that make it necessary for you to drop out—if that happens let me know as soon as possible so I can find an angel to fulfill your commitment.

Please send me your info after you sign up—mb name, real name and e-mail addy. Thanks. You will need to PM your partner for their mailing addy when you are ready to mail.
The chunky charms will due to your partner by August 1st! Use delivery confirmation and send # to both your partner and me. Using a small flat rate box or a padded envelope will protect the work you have done. If you are mailing to another country and need to fill out a customs form, please mark that the package is a gift so no fees are incurred. Delivery confirmation may not be available.

Guidelines:
* Make a chunky creation that you are proud of and would be glad to receive.

*Use a Tim Holtz Swivel Clasp [or something similar] for each dangle charm...it can be either size swivel clasp.

*Please limit amount of plastic beads

*You must use a minimum of 10 items on each swivel clasp

*Use at least 5 different charms, bottle caps and/or other items

*Each hanging charm should be placed on an appropriately sized [at least 3 x 5] tag that can be any shape you choose. The tag should be decorated to match the dangle charm. If you have any idea for another presentation as someone did in the last swap, please pm me with the idea and we can discuss it. Put in a Ziploc or other type bag and put your MB name on the bag.

If you were in the last swap and said you wanted to be in the next one, I have your name on the list already—let me know if you have changed your mind and how many spots you want. Limit is 2.
