Heres the list of paired names. HAVE FUN!
SWEETTEA59 AND MARLEE NINIBIN AND POMLOVER12 DELICIA AND FILLE DE FERME EROWEASE AND 36PAWS20HOOVES EROWEASE AND WAUKA MOUNTAIN MAMA
Morning, ladies.
I was thinking we should do an "altered plate" swap.
All you have to do is get a pretty plate (From the thrift store if you don't have one your willing to part with on hand) and make it even prettier! You can do anything you want like converting it into a chalk board, picture frame, wall hanging, mirror, cake stand, whatever! Just make it farmgirl awesome! 
SIGN UP DEAD LINE WILL BE JULY 1st!
MAIL OUT BY AUGUST 1st!
You may add on as many or as few gifts as you like. I know we're all very understanding ladies here...So, in no way feel discouraged if you don't have the money to spoil your swap partners. I personally know I love to spoil my farmgirl sisters but don't always have the money. So, like I said please join the swap even if your low on funds. We love you for you & your art, not your wallet.
*Hugs & blessings!*

This is SUCH a cool idea, Fran! I saw some plates done like this a few years ago... The picture was added using Mod Podge as both adhesive and glaze. I'd really REALLY like to do this! Sending you my info now! - Nini

Sign me up! I did something like this years ago with Modge Podge and a clear glass plate, it was a fun experiment. I would love to try it again. Plus it will be fun to go to the thrift store and find a really fun looking plate.

Sorry, Iam a day late....BUT we're at an odd number for members.
Is there anyone who might be interested in joining? We just need one more for an even number but we could take on more if we had too.

Alright ladies, I don't think anyone else is going to join & we are at an odd number so I was woundering if anyone wanted to do two plates? You'll get two plates in return.
I'll set myself up to do it if no one else is interested by tomorrow.
Also if anyone still wants to join then feel free. We still need one more for an even swap. :)

Alrighty ladies, here we go! Sorry for the delay, but I was really hoping for one more person to join. As it is, Lesley (erowease) sent me an email & I saw it before I saw Delicia's post so Iam going to choose her for the extra swap member. Sorry, Delica, I honestly didn't think two ladies would step up for me. :)
The list of names will be posted on my first post where the rules & deadline is listed.
Everyone enjoy & have fun! :)

Ok, I got all the addresses emailed to everyone...If by some chance you didn't get one or I prehaps emailed you your own address, because Iam just that disorganized. Feel free to post something here, contact me or contact your swap partner.
Thanks for joining & make sure to let me know if you didn't get your plate.
