I will be hostessing a General Disney Newbie thread starting the beginning of September with a due date at the begining of November.
All groups will have 5 people and will be for 1 element only per person.
Groups will be:
Disney Characters
Magic Kingdom
Epcot
Hollywood Studios
Animal Kingdom
General Disney
They will include our regular element list. What I am looking for now is a few experienced swappers who will do a more experienced piece in each group- so that those who have never heard of a type of element can see it done. If you can include instructions of how you did it or point nebies to places on the board where they can find instructions for it- that would be great. So I am looking for people that would be in any of the categories above doing: matchboxes, handmade paper piecings, shaker boxes, slide mounts, and such. Understand this is a swap for newbies and while we all want to share quality pieces with one another remember back to your first swaps and what the work you did looked like - I know being in swaps has improved what I do.
If you are interested in doing this than please pm me and I will put your name in the group with the element you will do on sign-ups. My goal would be to have at least one experienced piece in each group.
When this swap opens I will limit it to sign-ups for those with less than 3 swaps completed on the board for the first 24 hours and then allow other experienced swappers to fill out groups.
I will ask new swappers to limit themselves to one group in each category and will not be opening new groups just for experienced swappers.
Again the point of this swap is to support our new swappers so they are comfortable with swapping and learn about the various different elements they can make.

We love newcomers! Most if not all of our swaps are open to newcomers - -check out the calendar to see if there are any other swaps you interested in joining.
We've got a few gals that live in England. You will just need to mail earlier to ensure your package gets to the hostess on time and be sure to send her enough $$ to cover the return postage.
