***Edit: This swap is now full! We have over 50 players! So fun. I've sent confirmation emails to everyone who had asked to join ~ if you signed up, but didn't receive one, please let me know ASAP. I don't want to leave anyone out! I had a really great response to this and could have missed an email.***1. You will be placed in groups of 4 players. You will need to make a "Petite Inspiration Box" for each of the other players in your group (3), and you will receive one back from each of the players in your group (3).
2. The base of the box should be a sliding match box. I found mine at my grocery store in a package of 3 for about $2. These are the larger boxes that measure about 5x2x1, not the teeny-tiny ones. Decorate the outside of each box, and fill them with artsy goodies for your swap partners.
3. The items in your boxes should be vintage or vintage-inspired and have a NESTING THEME~ BIRDS, EGGS, NESTS, FLOWERS, etc. Some ideas of what to include: Old buttons, millinery, lace, ribbon, trims, jewelry findings, ephemera, images, charms, cupcake toppers, etc. These boxes are fairly small, so they should be easy to fill up... just be sure to send quality, usable items that you would love to receive yourself. You can see some photos of the boxes from previous swaps here.
4. You will need to mail your boxes directly to your partners by April 7th. PLEASE only sign-up for this swap if you are able to have your swap items created and mailed by this date. As with any swap, it is reallllly important to follow-up with your promise to make quality items and send them on time.

Yes, Heather. I love it! I had a funny felling this might be it!!!
I will send you an e-mail...
I have a new blog! Check it out if you have time. We had to call it Katsui Jewelry because Katsui was taken.
I know you are really busy so...only if you have time!!!
It sounds like such fun - and what a great theme. I loved doing the Valentine swap. But I'm not joining in on this one because we're in the midst of a move. I might create just such a box for myself though, to take a break from packing, sorting and more packing.
Oh my gosh !!!!Heather....Birdies...delightful!!
I will send you an email...this looks like tons of Spring fun!!
