Really Cool Corn Husk Doll Swap

Here's a chance for all you wonderful people to flex your crafty muscles!! We've all seen those cute corn husk dolls during Thanksgiving and Christmas. They're cheap and easy to make! The catch to this swap though, is to make a corn husk doll with a little "oomph" to it-- something creative and cool beyond the standard, plain, "naked" corn husk doll. The picture shows some cool ones with clothes-- these are made by professionals, so don't worry if yours don't look like these. They're just examples.

Some ideas are:

• Dolls embellished with husk costumes

• Dolls resembling your favorite TV or cartoon character

• Aliens

• Animals

The possibilities are endless! Just run with it!

You will be assigned one partner to swap with, so you will only need to make one doll, and you get four weeks to make it, so make it SPECIAL! The theme is sender's choice, but you may want to check your partner's profile for ideas!

There are a lot of basic instructions on the Internet on how to make these. Here's a good link: http://www.michigan.gov/mikids/0,1607,7-163-15941_20571---,00.html

Newbies are always welcome, and you should have a rating of 4.5 or higher. I'll be giving the profiles a quick check. I'll also angel if necessary. Message me if you have any questions. Looking forward to seeing you creation pics on flickr!!
