You basically craft 5 items, ship them to a hostess (make her a lil something too) then she sends you back 5 different items. Yes please! This way I can craft in front of my kids, send them in and then be all sneaky about other handmade goodies (like under pillows, for birthdays, for rainy days..etc.). It's a group that adheres to a natural materials guideline. No plastic, no rayon, no acrylic. Think "Waldorf" toys and you've got the idea.
Here's the items I received in the Knights, Dragons and Medieval Swap along with their makers' info:
Catapult with felted cannonballs - by Samantha
Golden chest filled with treasures - by ?
Gorgeous felt dragon - by Angela
Wooden knight and his Dragon egg - by Hallie
Young Archer - by Priscilla
I made these olive oil/hemp oil based soaps with organic lavender. I found an amazing celtic dragon mold just for this swap.
Enjoy the bits of goodness, and join us if you like!
I love all your goodies! Especially the dragon and soap!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea! I've done version of this with socks and cards but not homemade things. I might be able to get into it once I get more settled. Is it only for families/kid-oriented things?
ReplyDeleteBitt - Well, it's mostly a Mama bunch, so a lot of the goodies are aimed towards children's nature tables and such, but we do Mama swaps and herbal swaps and even an edibles swap every once in a while, so sign on up if you like!
