name for image List {Noun} - a series of names or other items written or printed together in a meaningful grouping or sequence so as to constitute a record: a list of members.

Everyone loves writing Lists ~ From Groceries to Books to Things to Do to that dreamy 5 year plan! So lets share some! A lovely little insight into your world ~ you might just inspire someone to try something new, Pick up a Book or Travel to a Foreign Land!

Use that pretty little head name for image) Each List will need to be at least 6 Items long - However they can be longer if you'd like!
Each List also needs to be creatively decorated ~ That is they can't just be written on scrap paper! Make it Pretty & Interesting to read!

From one listmaker to many others, I love it!

rinxo 03/30/2011 #

lovely to have you aboard papercaper! :)

fawnscrafts 03/30/2011 #

So I can use scrap paper and decorate then correct?

Can it be a used list? Like after I have gone shopping?

rinxo 03/31/2011 #

@fawnscrafts - It can be a scrap peice of paper decorated.. but make sure it is up to the standard you'd like to receive :) Also your choice of list can be a used one - That's up to you! But the other four should be off the list above :) Happy Swapping!

TheLadyAshuko 03/31/2011 #

Can we use already decorated stationary?

I am not adept at drawing, doodling and the like. So if letter paper isn't allowed, I'll pass on this swap.

rinxo 03/31/2011 #

@TheLadyAshuko -- Letter Paper is allowed - I just didn't want the recepient to get 5 scraps of lined or blank notebook paper.. I wanted it to be a little prettier :)

Hellotheremary 04/ 2/2011 #

I love that this is snail mail! I can not wait!

coachfee 04/ 2/2011 #

Hi rinxo - for those artistically challenged people like me - lol- i am assuming if we decorate with stickers that is fine???

rinxo 04/ 3/2011 #

Hey @coachfee :) Of course you can! Thanks for joining! :)

justined0414 04/ 3/2011 #

There is a really cool series of books called "Listography" I'm currently working on the love one. Its really fun!

rinxo 04/ 4/2011 #

Oh My Gosh Justine! I have the love one too - Although mine is absolutley destroyed with the amount of lists and crossing out etc in it :) Haha I love them!

koewrar 04/ 4/2011 #

I am sad of that I can't be in this swap... :(

Alcomog 04/ 4/2011 #

Hello Hello! Glad to be in this swap and looking forward to unleashing my world capitals list - informative and fun!

Ikat78 04/ 4/2011 #

Wow, I started mine and the list just kept getting bigger and bigger.

craftykathy1 04/ 4/2011 #

Hope you do another one in the future. I have a lot going on right now and the turnaround is a little too quick for me right now. The whole idea is great though! :) I'd love to join one in the future.

cloudylimeade 04/ 5/2011 #

I echo @craftykathy1 the dates aren't good for me but I hope you do another in future :)

MissPickle 04/ 5/2011 #

Super cool swap Idea! Can I make my list on a zine form (like a little booklet?) Thank you!

rinxo 04/ 5/2011 #

Of Course Pickle - That sounds lovely!

TraySeeH 04/ 6/2011 #

Wish there was more time than a week, but am going to join anyway.

rinxo 04/ 6/2011 #

I made it such a quick turnaround because you can start now :) it's not a profile swap so you don't have to wait till you have your partner assigned :) happy swapping! x

Krystal2424 04/ 6/2011 #

I don't think I'll be able to do this one, but hopefully you'll do it again! Great idea, I just don't have enough time this week.

fawnscrafts 04/ 7/2011 #

I think it is hard to decide which lists to make. I like so many. perhaps there could be another swap with the same lists of lists and I could make those for that swap also.

I have to go to the hospital and relieve a husband, he needs to go eat and shower, so I am sitting with his wife. I can get a lot done then.

Jailbird 04/21/2011 #

ohhhhhhhhhhhh so sorry I missed the deadline on this one. if you need an angel let me know!

Suzanne1804 05/26/2011 #

The person who had to send to me is deleted... So I never got the lists.. :(

Denise 07/ 9/2011 #

I never got mine either :-(
