Yoo kids- Whattdayou wanna be when you grow up? Why don't you do a test-run as a diy mad scientist thru this swap? The objective is to see how creative swappers can get, experiment & the only swap specification: "destroy this, make something awesome." Swappers would be challenged to use something typical to create something new, clever, mind-blowing, functional or beautiful -maybe even all of these things together. This is a sender's choice swap, so people can alter whatever their heart desires and send it off to their partners as a surprise! I'll list a variety of objects you could alter but that's just for brainstorming; the sky's the limit. Typical things could include:a record, a roll of duct tape, a hardbound book, a solo cup, a thrift store find, an old cassette, etc Alters could be : records: make a bowl, make a cd case and put a mix inside fer your partner, a clock more record ideas old textbook/hardback: rip out the pages, stitch in blank/graph/staff paper, with a couple of cents worth of hardware and a pair of metal snippers, a hardbound book can become an 8-note kimbala. (a primitive hand piano). cassette tape/case: diy wallet or transformer! lookey *tee shirt alters neck ties: into a small bag, hair band etc. Sooo many are cheap @ thrift stores and waiting for new homes here's some necktie ideas from threadbanger- theadbanger is the shit by the way fer edgy crafts! here old tee shirts: rip them up, make cloth yarn out of them and crochet/knit your partner a hat or whatever. |
