Hello Ladies Lets say we try something different ? I have made one of these altered switch covers before. They are very easy & inexpensive to do. They can be decorated using any medium. When I assign partners you will need to inquire if your partner prefers a single or double switch cover, also if they would like it for a certain room. Sign up will close on May 15th, MAIL OUT DEADLINE will be June 15th. I am posting a link of what they look like finished you may Google directions. These are fun to make & the decorating possibilities are endless Hope you will join me in this swap ? http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/gallery/member/197740-cathysahm/892469-altered-light-switch-cover-fall-06-paperart/?c=t


Hi ladies here are the partners list. PLEASE when you email your partner for their address, inquire if they would like a single or double switch or one of those toggle type, also it may help to inquire which room they will use it for. Happy crafting ALL

Beth,
I am glad you like it! The one you made me is in my craft room also. I did post a photo of it before I mailed it. Enjoy!
The photo is on page 5 of this topic. I also posted a photo of the cover you made me, it is on page 4.

I am trying to be the person my dogs think I am.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Oh yes it is a great feeling, but I am still having difficulty in all the steps to get them on there, I will get in my mind and then away we go...
It is so much nicer though. Descriptions are good and you get to use your mind with it and that is good too, but it doesn't quite do it justice in describing things as well
Thanks Madeline

Looks good, glad you like it. My idea was to make it look like a piece of art, rather than a lightplate.

Well I finally did it I had help getting my photos uploaded on my computer so here is the switch plate that Lesley (Erowease) made for me and it shows the different colors she used on both plates which she put up on page 4. Thanks again so much.

Ref: Lavender Chocolate.... MJ sells/sold it,,,not sure if it is still available...
you can also find it at 'Cowgirl Chocolates'....
I use to buy it when I would pop over to MJ's precious little shop in ID... but my journeys have not taken me there in quit some time...
But once in awhile I can still find Lavender chocolate at the quaint little flower/Confectioners shop over on 'River Walk' (tourist row, as i call it) in down town Spokane.
Lavender Chocolate has a unique taste unto it's own,,, you will either like it, or you won't. It has a 'flowery taste....blended w/dark chocolate. I personally love it.... but then, I also love lavender tea and my personal favorite, 'lavender & chocolate mint' tea... which I grow & blend myself.

Oh, you don't need to worry about the location of that chocolate. That was one of my favorite flavors . . . it's no longer available.
And, YES, I love the lavendar too!
Glad you have some answers for your computer!!
Have fun putting those plates where ya' want 'em.

Yep, I luv 'em both...but still wondering about the location of the chocolate! lolol!
Speaking of which, have you tried the Lavender dark chocolate? I luv it!

My 'Techsupportman' aka hubby has figured out why we are having issues w/both computers...'JavaScript'...I think our Trend security systym was soooo sensitive that it disabled JavaScript...
So now maybe I can get back to posting & blogging & boreing everyone to tears! lolol!
Thanx again CeeJay for posting the photos for me.... :>)

Grace . . aka "katmom" . . is having computer issues so she asked me to post pics of what I sent her. She requested a plate for either one of her glamper trailers. I decided to make two, one for her "shabby chic" trailer and one for her "farmgirls on the loose".
They were a total blast to make.
Thanks for letting me share them with you, Gracie!
