World Wide.. I do have another for just USA members.

I do have another swap like this where you make a deco.

On this swap you will be making 1 fan. I have a template you can use. I printed the template at size 3 1/2 by 5 inches. http://www.ruthannzaroff.com/mirkwooddesigns/fan.htm Is the site to get the original template.

You print the template and use that to cut out at least 4 "blades". You want to decorate one side of each "blade". Then you will put them together and attach string or yarn or something on the back so it will hold it open. I have pictures I can send if you need to see one done.

Sign up until Feb 1st. I will try to post partners that day. Please have your swaps sent by Feb 25. On the handle you can use Brads or eyelets...

You may make and send others to people. If you are one that would love more put a note in COMMENTS section. If you post your address there remember THE WHOLE WORLD CAN SEE IT. You can put a message there and have people contact you or myself to get your address. People must be listed in this swap for me to give out other addresses!

I would love more of these fans! I have a partail wall that is hard to decorate and I have a bunch of oriental fans on it. I would love to add more and even do my plain white office walls of fans and other crafty things. Feel free to send me any kind of hand made item to hang on my walls. I love getting inspiration from others work like that!

Thanks so much for reading this and maybe even joining in the swap!

Neat idea! I've never done one, but would like to try.

Everyone is welcome to try. That is how we learn to do new things.

Happy Holidays!

hi there! sounds like fun!

Does the fan have to be decorated in an "oriental" style, or can it be anything?

DecoPalace 01/ 7/2008 #

I have been trying for days to reply but it wouldn't bring up the comment box..

The fan can be oriental or from partners likes. Please ask them which they prefer if you don't plan to make it oriental. I don't mind either way what mine is like.

Well I've never done this before so I'll do a dummy run (pink and fluffy I think for DD) and see how it goes

DecoPalace 01/18/2008 #

Mine is done already-early!! I'm pretty happy with it.

It will probably go out tomorrow to DecoPalace.

This was a lot of fun.

I got it today! I love it!! Mine are going out in the morning. I am putting them in the mail box tonight but mail has already ran.

Where does everyone find the images of Geishas? I have the darnest time finding them.
