I am setting this up so that we are not competing with Carolyn's swap "make a purse from anything recycled USA only". Take a box, a small bucket, an old lunch box, old records, a coffee can, an old binocular box, an old book, an old hat box, or anything else that strikes your fancy, and use it to make your partner a purse. You cannot make it from scratch or from another purse - the majority of the purse must be made from something that you already have and are recycling. The idea is to make a purse from something that was not intended to be a purse. Be really creative, strive for unusual and different, but make it something they will be proud to show off! Check out your partner's profile for their favorite colours, just in case you have something that will work in that colour. More importantly, if your partner hates pink don't send them a fluffy pink purse. Try to match it in some way with something in your partner's profile. For example, if they like cats use a cat charm or button. If they like dragons, use an image of a dragon on it or an old button or charm that has a dragon on it. Just try to make it theirs, make it personal, but most importantly, make it fun. There is no dollar value on this because most of what you use should be recycled materials. Do not send a tiny purse, send a nice size usable purse at least 6 inches long. You are invited to sign up if you have:
