chesterfieldzoo Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I wasn't watching the time. Who is in for a Halloween swap? I will wait until Monday the 19th for people to sign up. Then it will only be 3 weeks to get your item to me (October 10) - not the usual longer time. Anything goes as long as it's Halloween or haunted or scary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, too, expressed an interest early on, but have a lot on my plate between now and Hallowe'en. I'd be happy to be a sounding board, too.

havanaholly Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I'm always available for bouncing ideas off of. Hallowe'en isn't my particular bowl of grits, but I enjoy making haunted scenes as much as the next person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimpling spice would make for an interesting mix in language translations, ie pimpling in Swedish is something one does with wine opposed to take an odd sip so to speak...

havanaholly Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Well in English it can refer to acne, which can be pretty frightening... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chesterfieldzoo Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Ok, it's a GO! I won't start a new thread, we will just continue here. So far we have Anna, Kathie B, Katluck125, and Me. 4 people. Should be easy. I don't think I need to post rules or a time frame. Just knock them out and send them to me. Make anything you want. Scale is 1:12. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Ohhhh, hmmm, now to decide upon all the ideas twirling around.... And rummage around in the stash hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I got to thinking of what my Haunted Hangout could use and the lightbulb went on. Simple, but effective. Already have supplies for 4 sets on hand, just need to assemble. Deana, how much money should we send for postage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katluck125 Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Good question and I have a few ideas I'm excited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scale is 1:12. Polyclay component about to go into the oven. If bake is successful, then it's assemble, glue, paint and done! Should be ready to hit the post office tomorrow. Deana, please PM with your mailing address and the amount of return postage to be included. Thanks for honchoing this swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KathieB Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Paint drying. One part needs a coat of polyacrylic, then all will be ready to wrap and mail. To the other participants --- don't forget to sign and date your items, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
