short sign up. go get in while ya can...

Each crafty person will make a small balloon about 4" inches in diameter (bigger if you choose but small is all that is required) Easter egg filled with small gifts and profile based goodies and send it to ONE partner, using the directions from the link above. @crescendo recommended using color napkins for added pattern instead of just plain tissue paper. Decorate the outside with whatever medium you prefer after it dries. I used newspaper and tissue paper to make mine and plain fklour and water and it worked fine. about 3 layers is good.

Please be sure to read your partner's profile and send something that will suit them. Check preferences before sealing the Easter egg up with the nifty pull string as shown in the demo page.

Also, since this is not an envelope type swap, wrap and pack your Easter egg carefully in a box that won't get squished by the Post Office.

this is a short sign up so you will have time to work on this with your partner in mind and mail before easter.

I do understand not everyone celebrates Easter as a holiday but filled Easter eggs are always fun and especilly if they're profile based.

So go sign up for this fun swap !!!!
