Well, I originally thought a fall birdhouse swap would be fun... but there hasn't been much interest. Anyone up for a Christmas decorative birdhouse swap instead?
Sign ups will end November 16th.
Mail out by December 1.
Anyone interested?

Hmm... good question. I didn't really think there would be any guideline other than it would need to be an actual birdhouse - in other words not a picture of a birdhouse and if it was decorative and not safe to put outside, just put a little not in there. I am thinking these would be more decorative, but some people might want to try and weather proof them to go outdoors.
Do you have any suggestions? I am open to any ideas. :)

Hi, I did a web search & I think you should make the swap for a decorative bird house & maybe have it for Christmas. You could extend the dead line to say November 15th :-) I'm sure others would join in.

Thought I'd give this a bump up. Come on Gals join in. There are soooo many possibilities for decorating these.

Sarah,
I would like to sign up also. I have never done a birdhouse before but it looks like fun. I was thinking that if it is only the three of us that maybe we each could do 2 (One for each). If more sign up then back to one partner. What do you think?

Welcome Rebecca! I am excited that you want to swap with us. I think that is a great idea, I am happy to do 2 if no one else signs up. Madeline - are you fine with that?

Please count me in.

Very sorry to report that Becky won't be able to join us for this swap afterall.
Darlene, if we do not have any more girls sign up, Madeline and I had talked about doing 2 each - 1 for each person. Would you be up for that, or would you prefer to do just one? I can make it work either way - just let me know. :)

Hi Darlene, Madeline, and Chardale,
Since you Madeline and Darlene have two done already and I am working on two now lets do that!
Chardale - is that OK with you? If you only want to do one that is fine too since that was the original swap idea - You don't have to send one to me, I won't be offended. :)
Darlene - Madeline & Chardale
Chardale - Sarah & Darlene
Madeline - Sarah & Darlene
Sarah - Madeline & Chardale
I wont be able to mail mine out for a week or so. Have both started but with school, work and getting my certification last week I haven't had enough time to finish them. But so far they are coming out great! Mail out is: Dec 1 (but I should have mine out to you before then.) :)
