Interest Thread for WDW & DLR Event Swap Sign-up 10/18 7:30pm EST

I might be interested in participating, but I'm not sure I quite understand how it works.

Welcome! How this works is when JohnsonsLoveDisney opens up sign-ups you will post which groups you want to be in. Then, you will make enough sets of the topic you chose so that each person in your group (including yourself) will get one. Then at the end, after JLD has mailed everything back, you will receive one set from each person that is in the group you signed up for.

Hi there. I don't know if anyone asked this in any previos posts, but is t his swap just going to be mini page kits, or are there going to be elements groups as well? Thanks!

Michi, at the very bottom of the list of groups, JohnsonsLoveDisney listed some groups that will be elements only.

There will be mini page kits and element groups. that way you can choose what you want to do. :goodvibes
 
I was thinking about what all I want to sign up for this weekend. I thought of a few questions...

So for Mini Page Kit groups we make 3 things? Does one have to be a topper?

What are you planning on putting in the category Holiday Decor at the Resorts? Would this include things like chocolate creations, GF Gingerbread Houses? What else??

For single element groups, would everyone make something different for a group but they would all be related to that theme? So for example I'd get 4-6 (depending on the group size) different things but they'd all be for FnGF? Right?

Just wanted to be certain I've got everything straight. Thanks!!
 
I will need a sign up buddy for this swap. We will be out of pocket most of the day Saturday.

If anyone is willing to sign up for me, just PM me. I already have my choices ready! Thanks! :flower3:
 
I am not sure if this swap will be opening on Saturday still? I believe JLD is dealing with a lot of stuff right now. I heard from another swap hostess she had to drop out, because of life issues right now. I have pm'd her for the surprise swap and have not heard back yet. So I am not sure what the status is of this swap.

If it does open up I will be no good for a swap buddy. Around the time of sign ups I will be out, so I planned on doing by phone and that is very slow moving.
 
Bummer! I'm really looking forward to this swap so if she doesn't open it up I hope someone else will take it and be the hostess.

Hopefully everything is okay with JLD. Hugs are being sent to her!

Thanks Nemo Mom for letting us know.
 
:wave2: I'm the sub! I'll take care of sign ups and we'll determine later if JLD wants to give this away entirely.

Sign ups will be posted on Sunday (10/18) night @730pm EST. I am sorry for the change but I already have weekend commitments. It will be a new thread.

I will review this thread and see if there are any questions that need to be answered. If you have any questions, please post them in this thread.


:grouphug: for JLD
 
Thanks Susan for getting this rolling for us. Big :hug: to JLD for things to fan out for her and her family.
 
Thanks Susan! And Thank you Ann for getting us an angel hostess. You girls are great! Looking forward to sign ups. I have a bunch of groups I want to join this time around.
 
I've looked through the thread and I have some questions for those of you interested in this swap.

Mini page kit for this swap will be three elements from the standard list (I'll post it at sign ups), embellished at least once. One of these elements must incorporate a title. You could make a traditional topper, welded and shadowed title, an altered CD with the title on it, a tag or squares with the title etc and then 2 elements. Group size varies 5-7 per group. The resort group will be a max of 6. You do not need to state your elements at sign ups.

Single elements groups -- state your element when you sign up -- no repeats with the exception of paper piecings (we will have to make sure we are not doing the same one) Group size = 6


Questions:
1. Food and Wine festival -- mini kits or elements??
Flower and Garden festival -- mini kits or elements??
Year of a Million Dreams -- mini kits or elements??
What will you celebrate -- mini kits or elements??

2. General Groups -- there have been a few requests for general mini kits and elements. Do you want a General Disney Halloween group or General MNSSHP group? Or does this wording not matter? Same thing with Christmas.

3. Star Wars and P&PP mini page kit groups -- I am unfamiliar with these events. I believe there are many more events than those listed. I am going to leave these groups open and request that you state your topic when you sign up, with no repeats -- like this

Star Wars Weekends
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

4. Disneyland groups -- again I have no knowledge -- please speak up if I have mistakes or omissions. Would you like a Holiday Decor mini kit group?



I appreciate your responses. I hope to have this ironed out by tomorrow evening so I can show you what the groups are.

Of course, if JLD posts sign ups tomorrow, forget all about this!
 
Susan, thanks for taking this on.

For me personally, I'd like to see elements for general Food & Wine, Flower & Garden, MNNSHP, and MVMCP without specific topics listed (like parades, etc.).

I am not familiar with P&PP but plan on signing up for this group, so I will have to figure that one out also. Unless there is anyone who can tells us about the events for the P&PP and Star Wars.

I have a question that I thought of as I'm brainstorming my single elements for this swap.

For Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights single element group E---could I do a typed up history of the lights telling the story of how the Osbourne family display grew too large etc...? I would take the text from what's here on wdwinfo and type it up and mat and embellish it. Is that okay? If not, I'll figure out something else, just wanted to ask.

Thanks!
