This swap is by invitation only, sorry!

This swap is for everyone who is addicted to pink and pretty princessy items!

You will each have one (1) partner and you will send them at least three items.

  1. One item will be a 250 count matchbox decorated with a pink princess theme and filled with pretty pink princess goodies. You can fill them with buttons, ribbon, rhinestones, sequins, jewelry, anything little and pink and princessy!

If you have not made a matchbox before, don't be intimidated. They're really easy and fun to make and I will give you all the help and advice you need.

  1. The second item to send them is a pretty decorated tiara. Get a tiara at the dollar store, and decorate it as fancy and wild as you can get! Rhinestones, glitter, feathers, whatever, as long as it is pink and princessy!

  2. The third item is a surprise! Buy or make your partner something special to make them feel like a princess!

All items must be princess themed and/or pink, no random items, please.

Minimum to spend on this is $10. No disney princess items, please. No foam shapes or punches, please.

Remember, glitter is our friend!!

Happy swapping!!! :D

EDITED TO ADD:

Someone reminded me that we should get adult size tiaras, not child size. Thank you! I also wanted to add that you can make your own as long as it's sturdy and well-made.

Every household should have a tiara! Useful to have on hand for bachelorette parties and for when other household members need a visual reminder of what should never be forgotten - lol :)

I saw this amazing book on Amazon and just had to share:

Crowns and Tiaras

harleygirl 11/10/2007 #

Okay, so I've got a question. What's the difference between a tiara and a crown? I always thought of tiaras like the one pictured above, but after seeing those flickr pix, I'm not sure. Those look like crowns to me...? help!

Butterfly 11/12/2007 #

Yes, I think of tiaras as usually just rhinestones. And I would classify those pictured above as crowns. I don't think it makes much difference, though, as long as you send your partner something fun and pretty that makes them feel special!

lisajhoney 11/19/2007 #

Well, i've started making the matchbox and bought some pretty things to go in. Next thing to look for, a tiara and can't wait to get decorating! Those picture on flickr are amazing!!

cbzcando 11/19/2007 #

I've been playing around with a tiara - um, 50/50 chance I may be getting another one lol :0

lisajhoney 11/23/2007 #

Very nearly finished my matchbox, been great fun looking for things to go in it. Bought the tiara today and some ribbon. Tomorrow i'll work out how I want to make it. Some great ideas on the flickr links above.

Butterfly 11/23/2007 #

Cbzcando- LOL!

Lisajhoney- I'm so glad you're having fun with this! I have my matchbox almost done but I'm still in the planning stages on the tiara.

cbzcando 11/24/2007 #

I found some great ribbon! Pink and another color, though. Can the tiaras be predominantly pink with an accent color thats not at all in the pink family? No biggie either way, I can always use the ribbon for something else. BTW, I'm having way too much fun with this.

Butterfly 11/24/2007 #

cbzcando- I would say yes, it's okay to have an accent color. I have silver accents for mine.

I'm glad you're having fun! I am, too. This has been one of my favorite swaps so far because I love what I'm making.

Butterfly 12/ 1/2007 #

I found another absolutely amazing tiara HERE.

Isn't it gorgeous??!!

Rhiannon 12/ 6/2007 #

Hey, I just want to say. I will not be sending any Disney Princess stuff, but if someone wants to send me Disney Princess stuff that is a-ok. I actually love all those princesses. (Princessi?)

lisajhoney 12/10/2007 #

Same here, I love Disney Princess's, but I won't be sending any

Rhiannon 12/18/2007 #

I was looking forward to this, but I am sorry, because of things that have happened recently on this site, I will be dropping out.
