Recent swaps: Dollhouse and iPhone

So, my two recent crafty swaps have been for a matchbox (the large 250 size) dollhouse, and for something handmade.

I got carried away with the dollhouse swap and made two...*sheepish grin*




For the something handmade swap, my partner had a husband with a new iPhone and a 2 year old son who liked to play with cell phones, so I made her son a stuffed iPhone toy

Mini Suitcase Swap

So, my first swap from Swap-bot is for a matchbox...that's really all the requirements. So I made a faery suitcase for my fellow faery loving partner.

I just covered a matchbox with leather and glued the straps on top. The old fashioned customs stickers are printed out from the computer.

Inside I put the faery's favorite things, a tiny faery house out of sculpy, some ribbon and stickers, faery charms, a mini candle, bell and tea cup, and a mini passport. I also made a little shirt from wool I had laying around (thanks mom). The shirt was inspired by Salley Mavor and her book Wee Felt Folk.

I also wrote a letter form the 'Faery Adoption Agency' and printed it on nice paper, I couldn't get a good picture though.

I hope my swap partner likes it, I had loads of fun making it and my mind is already forming new matchboxes to add to my etsy line...

Swap-Bot

So i just joined a website called Swap-bot where artists swap finished products and materials with each other. I'm really excited about starting my first few swaps! I'll put pictures on as soon as I make things to send. I've already signed up for four swaps, one for matchbox surprises

(right down my alley), one for sharing a secret with a stranger (no pics of that one...its a secret!), one for circus elephant ATC (artist trading cards), and one for BLOGS!!

I guess maybe I should tell mom about this...*sheepish grin*
