Does the elf or wild child or those type of fiber count? They are technically yarn because that is the location I find them in Hobby Lobby.
If they are okay, I'd like that group and one of the shaped brads.

I think dark Purple, but I can confirm tonight.

Mickster
07-18-2008, 04:34 PM

I'd like to sign up for shaped brads, shaped eyelets, and prima flowers.

Eyelet question.... a while back I found mickey parts eyelets - mickey hands, mickey pants, etc I'm assuming that would work for the shaped eyelet category? And an appropriate assortment of each since it's a set?

rlovew
07-18-2008, 10:25 PM
Can you put me in both brad and both eyelet groups- I have no idea what I have or what I will be ordering.

pretty in tink wants to sign up for:

Fiber- White
Eyelets, Round-Classic Colors ( Mustard, Deep Plum, Deep Red, Navy, Mulberry, and Forest Green Mix)

To start, I want to sign up for:

Ribbon-Pink and Green (Plain ribbon, just 2 spools)
Fiber-Chocolate
Round Brads-If I can get them, I want to do Deep Purple. If not, I'll have to choose another color I guess.

Primas-I have some pink medium size ones. If they aren't the same as what has already been signed up for, I would like a primas spot. They might be Item # 505288. They are varying shades of pink-light pink to bright pink. If they are the same color, I will skip the prima group.

VickV

That works- Just check the thread to see what has been taken before you shop.

I'd like to sign up for shaped brads, shaped eyelets, and prima flowers.

Yes- that works also- just give an assortment of the different shapes.

MazdaUK

My brads are snowflakes - pink & blues & greens & red & purple

I have question for you all...

We have a few groups that are not full, does anyone mind if I offer some of the open spots to my local friends who scrap? They are not Disboard members, but I know they will not flake because we scrap together every month. Plus they are some of my dearest friends....

I will only offer non filled spots after tomorrow evenings swap closing if no one objects.

AWM what is Elf and Wild Child fiber?

Sorry, I missed this post.

Elf eyelash is the fiber that is short and all runs in one direction. Kinda like fringe but is thin so it looks just like eyelashes.

Wild Child is the same thickness but it goes in different directions.

I've used both on my elements before. I'll send you samples of each.

This is perfectly fine by me... If you'd like I can take an extra spot in the fiber.. or I'm just gonna send extra anyway!!!

07-21-2008, 02:49 PM
Do you need the color in the fiber??

I have pink...some lt. blues (I mean pale blue love it!), some awesome teal color... so if you need to adjust because someone already have claimed that is fine by me!!! I'm sure I have more down there too...but I'm too lazy to go look! :)

I like the name Wild Child! LOL

Yes, the one you used on your lion was the elf eyelash. The wild child is the one I use most because it doesn't matter about the direction is in.

Since I'm still new to all of this and I will need to go shopping and as of yet havnt had a chance, do I need to list what colors or shapes I'm getting or can it be a surprise? I would rather be surprised myself.

Cpuld someone please tell me what the diameters of the brads should be.
I know what I would consider a large may not be what someone else considers a large and I always want to make sure Im doing a fair trade.

Eyelatoutlet has a product called "Quicklets". If anyone is familiar with this product, what area would these fall into? I think they are very cute and easy to work with.

Thanks all and have a great day!

And is this a hostess rule and up to the individual but I realized this is my first go round of swapping and have never swapped with anyone before and please believe me I am not a flaker but Im in 3 groups and should I just be in 2? I want all 3 groups. So if everything is ok, I thank you in advance for trusting me!

keep asking questions. We do not mind we all where new once also. In the metal group- anything that is metal. Charms are a good example. In the anything goes- anything that can be used for embellishments.

I will be doing yellow primas.

Just so I am doing this right,

I need to have 5 large OR 10 medium OR 20 small or do I have to do 5 large AND 10 meduim AND 20 small, or is it a combination of them. Sorry for so many questions but I haven't swapped in awhile and I want to get it right.

Also, where is the best place to buy them? How many come in the Got Flowers bottles. Just wondering so I have enough for 9.

You do one of the sizes not all 3. A got flowers bottle should be enough for an entire group.

Dont worry about your battery, I completely understand!
Let me ask you this, can I order from Eyeletoutlet and go by their sizes?
They've got some cool looking brads and can the round ones have any design? Alot of their stuff comes in little packages. Would one of those count as an equal swap?
My M and J dont seem to have any new stuff and thats really all we have here. We get alot of different things when the snowbirds come.
Let me know so I can go shopping!:goodvibes

I've counted out my shaped brads:thumbsup2 I'll maybe cut the ribbon tonight. Can I just check on "anything goes" - this can be something already in one of the other categories, right? Do they all have to be the same or could I do a "lucky dip"?

I bought everything on Friday...didn't have a list with me though, so I bought orange ribbon for Group A...hope that's OK since someone else is already doing orange.

For the printed ribbon, I bought ribbon that's white with a variety of colored diamonds on it.

I bought fiber that's shades of lime green and turquoise.

I'll probably have this sent out by the end of the week. I'll let you know when it's postal.

Mickeyteacher - can you pm/e-mail me your addy. I am ready to go postal. ALso, how much do you need in return postage. My primas could fit in a regular business envelope so I could SASE if you would like.

The black ribbon I was measuring ran out :earseek!: I forgot DS(8) used some for his topper and tag swap :blush: Luckily I found some other black to use, which i hope is OK with everyone :flower:

Mazda, I had never heard that phrase "lucky dip" but I like it!
I would be your odd person if you need one. Ribbon is ribbon so I wouldnt mind!:goodvibes

I ordered everything I need for my next two swaps this weekend so Im set now.
I hope I got the right sizes, Kat basically said to use best judgement Mt so Im good.
I got round with a design, hope thats alright, good for AK and shaped are moons.Somrone is in the Contries part of the Tags and Toppers swap that is also doing this and if you do not like the moons please tell me and I will get you something else as you will be getting some on your "tag".

Some of the ribbon is more tape-y than ribbon-y, but its a nice twill tape - you could put halloween rub-ons on it, for example.

I was going to do ribbon for "anything goes" because other than that I haven't got enough of any one thing for 10 people, but then it occurred to me I might have say enough for 10 if one had shaped brads, two had eyelets, 5 had ribbon etc. What do you all think?

Arizona Rita
07-28-2008, 07:05 PM
I think it sounds great! I had signed up for 3 groups and now wishing I has signed up for anything goes but no one had swapped with me yet and I know most hostesses limit you to 2 groups until, I think, they get to know you.
Which I totally agree with!
I like a mixture because I like surprises! I think thats why I was so happy Kat let me in on the surprise swap. Oh, what goodies will I be getting, along with the is my stuff good enough because Ive never done this before!:goodvibes

By the way, what part of the UK are you in? I spent 10 weeks in South End On Sea one summer.

I have my group C done (MT has my brads already)... anyway, each person will be getting 3 yrds of 4 different fibers..

white eyelash (boa like)
pink/silver eyelash (think they call it silver lash)
pink/yellow/orange combo fiber thing (I thought it was cute)
deep tealy green silerlash

Hope that is okay.. it's bagged/tagged and awaiting my meet w/ MT in Aug!!!

OH, need to put a note on there for $$ for postage/brads.. LOL

AlexWyattMommy
07-31-2008, 06:47 PM
:rotfl2: Oh Nan, we are such overachievers.

I have four different groupings of fibers.

3 yards of blue/white/black ladder fiber with 2 yards of brown wildchild & ladder mixed

3 yards of silver flecked lime green chenille with 3 yards of light yellow wildchild

3 yards of fluffy white chanille with 2 yards of burgendy/brown bumpy fiber

3 yards of yellow/green/white elf eyelash with 2 yards of mauve/tan/grey bumpy fiber

I am bagged up and will put these in with the sports swap and save your postage for the topper'n'tags swap. :)

Can we put the ribbon right in the baggie, or does it have to be wrapped around a cardboard? I think the last embellie swap I was wrapping ribbon around cut up cereal boxes.

I have all of the packages, they are all swapped out and ready to be mailed out tomorrow evening after school.
I did make a small error that I can not figure out where I went wrong, so I will confess and fix it when all the packages are home and the owner lets me know. Somehow, I missed putting three baggies of ribbon from group A. So when everyone gets their packages check and if you are missing ribbon, I will send it out to you.
Sorry!
