Altered Paint Can Swap - Progress Thread Deadline 10/31

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'll try again if you would like-
Here is the group list
Group 3: CLOSED 9 people
The Rest of the "Gang" ( Any other Disney Character you wish other than those listed above)
1. Caitsmama - Eeyore
2. KatDisney - Disney Villains
3. Downrivermama - Tinkerbell
4. Havencruiser - Peter Pan
5. Pixie Dust 32 - Pooh&Tigger
6. Patchchild - Classic Pooh&Friends
7. Potterphreak - Toy Story
8. BernardandMissBianca - Chip&Dale
9. Goofy4Life- Stitch

So if you make 8 (minus one for you) cans-you get back all eight of the choices.
If you make 5 cans than your wishlist could look like this-
1st - Toy Story
2nd - Disney Villians
3rd - Peter Pan
4th - Tinkerbell
5th - Stitch
alternates - Chip&Dale, Eeyore

The wish list is to help the hostess decide who gets what if there is less than 8 cans made. I believe it was mentioned before that it would cost less in postage if you didn't make one for yourself to have to be mailed back. (unlike other swaps where we just make the total number and get one of our own back)

Did that help or did I make it worse?

Ohh I see.
They had this on the sign-up thread but it was deleted.

OK, if I want all 8 Cans I make 8 Cans of my character of choice right? (minus mine)
If I only one 5, I make only 5 and send them with the wish list right? But if I want all 8 or whatever is on the group i must send the same amount of the character of my choice? I think. Thanks

Ok, you guys tell me what to do, LOL:


Should Buzz lose his feet?

Oh no, poor buzz! I saw those stickers too, didn't realized how big they are! I don't know

 

[havencruiser]

Sorry to have been AWOL! I went to SDV last week-end and have beenbusy trying to play catch-up ever since. Plus,even thought I work year-rond in a schoo lsetting, school actually starting this coming week makes things busier than normal for me. Add to that the week from you-know-where as far as the rest of my life went, and voila, no DIS-surfing here for me .

Anyway,,,enough of that. To respond to some of the posts:
!. I'd lose the Buzz feet if that's the easiet solution for you.
2. Please send me a wish list. I will try my best to match everyon'es preference with the amount of each topic I have avaialable.
3. ONE QUESTION TO CONSIDER: If I can't meet your request and there are cans in a nother group that I can use to send to you rather than have tosend back your own topic, would you be agreeable to that? Of course, I will fulfill all requests within a group first before I cross groups? LEt me know your thoughts on that.

Thanks,
Sharon

 

[potterphreak]

I am open to a cross distribution.

 

[potterphreak]

Tried to PM you havencruiser, guess you're very popular! LOL

Hello!! Thanks for hosting; this looks like this might be a drama filled swap for you to host! LOL Here is my wishlist:

1. Tinkerbell
2. Villains
3. Peter Pan
4. Aurora (group 2)
5. All Princesses (group 2)
6. Merriest Place (group 4)
7. Christmas (group 4)
8. Xmas Characters (group 4)

I plan on making 3-6 cans, LOL. I started my practice can last night, looks like Buzz will need surgery from the knees down. :-O

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'm open to cross distrubition also. Probably won't need in my groups, but feel free to put my cans where they are needed.

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

I'm happy with any can. I'm trying to make cans for everyone in my groups so there should be plenty to go around. I'm all for crossing over as well.

P.S. Sounds like Buzz is in for a rough ride!

 

[patchchild]

cross contribution is fine with me, as long as it won't give you too much of a headache.

 

[PixieDust32]

HAVENCRUISER, your PM box is full.

Hi all,

Sorry I haven't checked in sooner but August wasn't a very good month. My father passed away on the 16th after a 2 1/2 week hospital stay. And now school starts tomorrow for dd 8! It seems like the whole month was a blur.

Anyways, I had most of the stuff already, so hope to get working on it this weekend. I'm flexable. I plan on making 8 cans. And I've got all the goodies to go in the cans!

I am so sorry for your loss!

So sorry for your loss! Take your time as you have had to luxury of getting an early start.

[Downrivermama]

Thank you all for your kind words. We are hanging in there. I am glad that I have always enjoyed crafts and have it to help take my mind off of things. Things are starting to settle down now and dd started school today, which will help her getting back into the routine.

Besides, I already know what I want to do, I just need to sit down and do it! I think the people at Home Depot think I'm nuts! LOL

 

[KatDisney]

Going to Lowe's today *yay* Still not sure how many of each group I'm going to make yet, It will depend alot on how much trouble I have creating one. But I am going to shoot to make one per everyone in my groups.

 

[Mickster]

I had such great momentum before Labor Day. Not so much now. I hope to get it back soon. I have one made, 2 more to go. Nothing made yet for the inside, but I have my idea and supplies. Keep your fingers crossed!

 

[KatDisney]

Yikes, I went to lowes and bought a couple cans 2.54 each Im going to check Home Depot this next week to see if they are cheaper.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

KatDisney
Our Home Depot has them for $1.88. Big difference from $2.54 as is our Lowes also. Just be sure to check the lids. There were quite a few that were too dented to use.

 

[goofy4 life]

I am going to change mine from Stitch to Alice in Wonderland. I had the worst time finding lilo and stitch stickers or paper or anything for that matter I even looked at Disney when we visited in August! I was only going to make 3 cans but I am thinking about going and getting more cans since it looks like most people are doing it for the whole group!?! Sorry about the change, Jen
