Create A Book Thong Swap

International because parcels will be very lightweight for this swap.

Noobs welcome if you have a 4.8 rating by the swap close date AND have ZERO no-sends.

I loooove book thongs. And i love making them because they're simple, but can be so pretty and creative, especially when made by a diverse handful of crafters. This swap will give us a good variety of different types, from different creative minds - instead of the same old type you see hanging in the occasional book store.

Pick a charm for the bottom end of your book thong based on each of your partners interests. (People, PLEASE have a thoroughly filled out profile!)I'm giving more time between the sign up & send by deadlines so you can take the time to create something you're happy with, that you know your partners will love! (3 weeks good enough?)

Use coordinating, sturdy natural fiber cord (or another type of cord that isn't too thin, fragile bulky or elastic) as well as coordinating beads/crystals, etc. Please be creative and aim for hearts!!

The materials to make these are very inexpensive, so please don't skimp on effort. Most of us probably have most of the supplies to make these already.

You'll have 3 partners and you will create 2 book thongs for each. You'll be making a total of 6 book thongs. (and receiving 6 as well!)

If you have no clue what a book thong is, please go purchase one so you can get a feel (and a close up feel & view) of how they're made.

For a quick jump start, go to http://images.google.com and use the search terms "book thong". Your results will be ample.

They're very simply put together and a really fun item to have for keeping your place in the book you've been reading.

If you have any no-sends, you may not join.
