EDIT ABOUT THE LINK: It works now! Here's another one for inspiration

I thought it'd be a neat idea for a swap! To join: Make sure you have no recent 1's or 3's....If you have less then 5 big swaps, just PM me. I don't really see the need for a rating number requirement. If it's too low, I'll contact you and we'll talk.

So here's the deal.

  1. Sign up for swap
  2. Go thrift store and by a painting.. ( either a 5 x 7 or an 8x 10...or anything else that's in those dimensions)
  3. Alter it! Paint it. Use pastels, chalk, bits of paper, spray paint. ANYTHING. (I think if you use pastels or something, maybe put a clear coat of spray paint over it?)
  4. Send it to you partner.
  5. Wait for the magic of swap-bot to happen
  6. Open Mail
  7. PROFIT

I would like to make this a two partner, but I want to see how this swap goes cause it's my first public swap! Maybe I'll do that next time.
