  5. ok 4 well 5 counting me ... so if i can get at least 5 more ppl to commit I will send out a detailed message with rules , details , and a few questions :) Orrr we could wait one more week , and if no one else signs up but EVERYONE is up to it and WANTS to , it could be REALLY cool if we just each sent the other 4 participants there are 5 of us but i say four because you wouldn't be sending anything to yourself , but everyone could send something to the other ppl in the swap ... since it's such a small # of people , so you'd each get 4 packages from 4 different ppl from 4 different places it could be fun I know I'd love it , since I'm not sure that the blog has many ppl looking so it might be fun because it's small ... and it wouldn't be TO hard ... it makes me think of those chain letters as a kid , you send a letter to 5 ppl and they send each send a letter to 5 ppl and you end up getting like 10 letters back . i never saw the point of them however , I DO with beads !!!! :)
    so my darlings , let me know what you think either with a email ... or comment .. My Email is Ivygodess0106@yahoo.com also anyone new looking at this if your intrested i'm not cutting off the swap , just seeing if anyone would be intrestd in something diffrent . i think my cut off date for commenting and/or emailing me is August 22ed , then i'll be sending out a email by monday the 23ed with details , info , rules etc....
    Thanks
    Linn
