We had such a good time swapping compacts before, I thought it was time to have another go! This swap is to take the case of a compact - new or vintage, and re-make it into something else. Those powder and mirror compacts that were once a staple in women's purses seem to hold so much recycling potential! I recently made one into a pocket picture frame by decorating the front and cutting a mat board insert for the inside that would frame a small picture. I could also see them as miniature purses, needle cases, bead minders...I bet you can think of a few things too! Maybe you just want to decorate the outside and let your partner decide what to stash inside! My last partner sent me a compact filled with a pull-out accordion style album, (Pretty cool!). I think they could make nifty dream boxes or art dolls, too. You don’t have to wear make-up to play. I’ve picked up most of mine second hand. I’ve also seen mints and things in a container like a powder compact. This is a swappers choice - but if you want hearts, look through your partner's profile and fill the compact or add to your package some special goodies, just for them!You'll have 1 month to complete the project after partners are assigned. The nitty-gritty: No swappers with less than a 4.5, and no "no sends" in the last 6 weeks. Newbies please convo me if you would like to join. I'm not opposed - just need to make sure you're serious. I'm not sure I'll have time to angel this, so Please, please, please don't flake if you sign-up. Thanks!!!! |
