Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Sun, September 17, 2006 - 10:40 AMMine is started also. What fun.

Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Sat, September 16, 2006 - 11:29 PMI am going to have make something differnet than what I had started on...
I don't think my trade partner would like it, darn it.
Oh well, what would she like?!!?!?!?! -
-
Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Sun, September 17, 2006 - 10:42 AMGee cannot imagine why your partner wouldn't like what you have in mine. I thing just the idea of someone taking the time to make something for you is special. -
-
Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Sun, September 17, 2006 - 10:49 AMYes, but when you review someones profile, a distinct style comes to mind.
Everyone is differnet.
Things are not the same to all people.
I gift to the indiviual, what I think they would like.
What I started making would not go over big with my partner, I can tell.
So I am currently rethinking what I could make her that she would like.
I don't gift, "one gift fits all"
?!?!?!?! -
-
Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Mon, September 18, 2006 - 12:28 PMyes I know what you mean. I always start jumping the gun. But the whole thing goes smoother once I know a bit about the person I'm giving for.
This is great therapy by the way. My Grandma who did tons of crafts just passed away. After recently seeing some of her creations that I'd never seen before, I am looking forward to crafting something tiny and precious! -
-
Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Fri, September 22, 2006 - 6:32 AMI agree, Ms. S. My husband asked me, "Don't you have something already made you can use?" That's not the point! The point is to make something FOR someone. That's the fun! Sometimes a challenge, when the person doesn't have a lot on their profiles, so get stuff up there, all you folks with one picture in your profile! Inquiring craters want to know you! -
-
Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Fri, September 22, 2006 - 1:22 PMInquiring craters? I like that.
Glad you're not going to give me that thing you made five years ago, not sure you like it, and don't know what to do with it.
I'm gathering my supplies....inspiration is coming....mad sketchbook sketching and noting! So many ideas! hmmm. hmm hmmm! -

Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Mon, October 2, 2006 - 5:57 AMI got most of mine done at our little S&B gathering yesterday, a bit of finishing and I'll be shipping it off! -

Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Mon, October 2, 2006 - 9:09 AMI tell ya Tracey, mine will be there closer to the end of the Trade. :) I had originally thought that my boyfriend and I had all of October to move, and now we pretty much have this week! Yikes! But I will get it done!!

Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Tue, October 3, 2006 - 7:35 AMKerri - no worries, when it happens, it happens!
But you should be expecting yours end of this week or early next as I was able to get it out in the mail yesterday!
I hope you enjoy it!
Gotta say, I love the postage on "tiny precious" things!

Re: Tiny Precious Trade
Tue, October 3, 2006 - 1:20 PMoh gosh Kathleen I love what I made you so much, I almost want to keep it for myself!! I'd make another but I doubt it would lack the spontenaety and charm that came out in yours.
I have just a few details, I need to have some other artsy folk give me some feedback on some finishing touches.
This is so fun...if it weren't for this trade, I wouldn't be working in this medium. Also I find that when making something for a particular person, new things happen that never would if you were making it just for the sake of making it. Thanks Kathleen for the inspiration!
