Swap Angel

Posted by cassandra , 9.19.2008 Friday, September 19, 2008

I volunteered to be "an angel" for Craftster in a swap that is themed "Completely Random". That means partners exchange lists of 50 random things about themselves and their partner made a package for them based off that.

The girl I'm going to angel for (make her a package because her partner flaked without receiving a package in return) is a mom in NH. She's revealed the following facts.

• She likes to watch her husband/kids play video games (I'm guilty of this too!)
  
• She has the words to How Bizarre stuck in her head. You know that cheezeball 90s hit?
• She loves birdwatching and flowers
• She loves color--but is afraid to use it
• She works from home @ the computer
• She prefers pencils to pens

First Craftster Swap

Posted by cassandra , 9.18.2008 Thursday, September 18, 2008

So I recently completed my first Craftster swap. I had a great partner--she was from Texas.

I sent her some great stuff and she sent me a great package too!

My favorite thing she sent me was this cityscape Counting Crows homemade journal.



The best thing I sent her was a great homemade piano bracelet from bamboo tiles.





Now I'm working on a swap angel project. I will post some photos later of the so-far stage that I'm at.
