Each participant will send at least ONE handmade retro-game themed craft to another international participant. These items can be knitted, sewn, painted, sculpted, hand-drawn, re-purposed or recycled, collaged, baked.... anything that you are inspired to create. Jewelry, graphic designs, and wall art are also acceptable. Anything goes! Please remember that if your crafts are fragile to package them well.

Please make sure that you put some solid thought and effort into your item(s). Make sure you that would be happy to receive what you are sending out.

** If there is something you do not want to receive, please mention it in the comments below, so your partner does not send you something you wouldn't like.

Minimum 4.9 Rating, Newbies welcome with a well-filled out profile. I will be checking profiles before assigning partners and banning swappers with questionable histories. (But in a friendly way, of course.)

This is the sixth swap in a series of Geeky Craft Swaps. Please "like" the page on facebook (www.facebook.com/geekycraftswap) and post pictures of your creations/what you receive for all to admire!

Questions? Post them here or send me a message.

Have fun!

Sorry for the wordy swap title :P

I'm happy to receive anything, but I ask that it's something easily recognizable. I'm not a gamer by any means but I definitely enjoyed playing these games growing up; so the more mainstream the better!

You need to change the swap type to type 3. ;)

I'll be happy with any theme the sender chooses. Something "Oregon Trail" related would be awesome though. That was my favorite game.

@kiddo47 Have you played Organ Trail? Zombie-themed homage to the original Link

KGallifrey 05/23/2013 #

Whoops! Thanks @Kiddo47 :)

@user2637 I haven't played it yet, but my friend just made me aware of it the other day. Pretty awesome!

No problem, @KGalifrey . Thanks for hosting another fun swap!

I'd appreciate any retro game themed item, but I particularly like Mr. Do! and Centipede. A surprise or obscure game/game system swap is fine by me because I'm likely to get the reference (Vectrex, Atari, Game & Watch).

Hey guys! I've never played much except Super Mario, but I love the aesthetics of those early games, so anything goes for me. I'll be very happy to receive anything you create :)

Most anything as long as it's not too obscure, please. PacMan and Tertris are awesome. :)

Will be happy with almost anything on this theme :)

Am a newbie so I don't know if there's enough info on my profile
