round two!
i invite everyone who likes, but i can´t take as much as in the chocolate swap, so 10 is maximum, university start again soon! ^^"
My little sisters birthday is on may 22nd, she´ll getting 19 then. she drooled so much over my boyfriends packages, that i think now it is her turn!
my offer is like before, i offer artwork, digital and traditional, handbound books and sewed goods. in exchange, i ask you to send clara birthday candies and a card or note where this package is coming from.
here are some examples from the first thread:

these are just randomly picked, please see the thread for more examples! ^^
she is dreaming of the whole wide world and traveling, on the other side, the has a sweet tooth. she loves food and candy and can eat lots of it (without even gaining weight *lol*)
so i would be glad if you could send her a bit from your place. ;)
here is a list about what she likes:
• chocolate, any darkness, maybe not hot chocolate,
• caramell
• fruity tea
• sweets, i can´t think of what she wouldn´t like. (okay, maybe liquorice XD and dryed fruits)
• chips/crisps, you can´t even blink and the bag is empty. (no vinegar XD )
others:
• socks (she keeps stealing mine)
• earstuds (same here)
• rock music. she loves going to festivals! her current favorite bands are like greenday,billy talent, the donots, panic at the dico, system of a down and more.
• cats, absolutely! her current cat is black and white, his name is barney. http://ankin.deviantart.com/art/Barney-261958638 (http://ankin.deviantart.com/art/Barney-261958638)
• she mentioned green as her favorite color
just pick whatever works out best for you! :frolic:

i´ll send you a pm ^^
-
yes ^^
-
I'd be happy to do this again. :) I even have a tiny black and white cat figure for her and I can find all sorts of treats.
-
Hi! I know I'm already doing a commission with you, but I can also send your sister Japanese candy :)
-
I didn't know your books were hand made. I love mine. I have it out on my counter all the time.
-
i'll search out some nice stuff from UK
-
I could send her some danish candy :)
-
Marigold!! i would be happy if you would join again.
yes, yours is handmade too, there is even a golden shimmer on top which was applied by me in the end. ^^
midnight mocha, of course, that would be great! you can send it together in one box if you like. ^^ i can pack her presents into another nice box then.
Pixie, thank you, the UK has very good candy. :D i put you on the list too, okay?
asasara, that would be precious! i heard skandinavian sweets is quite good too. i put you on the list too. ;)
i just have 3 comissions left and work on them without a break now. as soon as these are done i can start with yours. :frolic:
if you already have an idea what you would like, please pm me as soon as i say that ifinished the other commissions, so ican keep them apart and nothing gets lost in my message box. ;)
have a grand day! :D
-
Yay! I can participate this time. Again, the promise of Southern delicacies. :) And some fun socks too!
-
Yay, Eviecorn! socks are gooood, maybe mysock drawer wont be so empty then. XD
your signature always gets me. i hear the otter singing: "hey,hey,hey, buy ponies every day!".
and every time i see ponies for sale i have it in my mind. nothing better than this dancing otter. XD
-
Yes. My association experiment worked. :rubs hands together:
When should we post our packages by? I know mine will take a little bit coming from the US.
-
her birthday is on the 22nd of may, the best would be if you try to send your package that it arrived about a week before, to get sure.
would that be okay?
-
Yep, that'll work! :)
-
This sounds like so much fun!
I don't know how many US participants you've got, but I'd love to join in. I'm from Chicago, IL.
-

Marigold!! i would be happy if you would join again.

I love that shimmer! :D
I will do some shopping around for your sister and I'll be sure to wrap them up for a birthday!
-
Hy akutenshi, i´ll send you a pm. ^^
marigold, that sounds precious and i got your message, that is allright. and if you have a song in mind fitting to her, feel free to tell me. ^^ i love listening to "theme songs" of the character i´m drawing. ^^
okay, i´ll be working through my messages now. please give me a bit time on the weekend. you can send ion your ideas and what you would like,but i´ll start in the next week with jinxxy, first on the list, and so on.
i hope my project for the weekend works out, then i have something more to offer besides drawings and sewing. ;)
-
I never thought of a song for her, but the first thing that comes in mind is Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Spring in particular, but they supposedly have a long growing season and they are annuals so all four seasons are fitting. :) Lol, now my pony has a song.
-
wow, vivaldi is nice! i haven´t listened to the four seasons for a while, thank you for the recommedation!
and now your girl has a song. ^^
midgnight mocha gave me titanium from sia, her picture is the one with the phoenix. a very powerfull song too.
-
Okay, is your sister's birthday in March or May? I read the post about it being May 22 and so I planned to get things out to arrive by then. Is that the right day?
-
oh, dear, its on 22 of may, the other date was my aunts birthday,sorry. ;) my mom has on 2nd of may, that can be confusing sometimes. ;)
-
Oh good! I was worried i missed her birthday.
-
ive got a collection of chocolate now, going to look for a card and some bits
is your sister a pony lover?
-
Thats great work :D
-
is your sister a pony lover?
no, really not. XD it was fine with jakob, since he likes them and the show but clara just barely knows them. i got her a custom for christmas once- she didn´t liked it and gave it back to me a few years later. ^^"
(what went wrong? everybody should like them O-O )
thank you luna delight! ^^
-
What other things would she like?
-
nearly got my box of goodies done, going into town tomorrow for get last few bits ;)
-
uhm, what other thingswould she like? the things i posted in the first post and, uhm,.. bacon. XD (you don´t really have to send bacon. LOL )
thanks pixie! did you already send me what you want for your second artwork? let me know! ;)
and a little update, i am working on saorises and jinxxys now, sunnyrain and midnight mocha get thiers send out today too, because they liked some of the premade items. ^^i will update the list right now. ;)
everyone who hasn´t already send out what they would like, feel free to pm me with your ideas! ^^
the little book with the forest animals and a few bags are still available, cameo-charms are in progress but still in "beta-testing" ;) as soon as all bags are gone, i can sew customized bags, and if enought people are interested, i can print personalized ponies on too. ;)
wheee! i´m off to university! :D
-
oops i forgot to send you a PM >_<, will do now
im going to post my box of goodies today, is that ok or is it too early?
-
everyone can send as early as they want! ^^ i have a big box where i hide my presents, there is no problem in storing them until may^^
sending earlier might be better because the customs office sometimes take a while. u.u" i´m still waiting for post from australia and the uk from the last chocolate trade. ^^"
thank you pixie! i´ll draw a your first two personas after marigolds and jinxxys are done! ^^
-
whoho, weekend = pony drawing time! (and message reply time)
midnightmocha, sunnyrain, did something already arrived for you so far? ^^
i hope to finish about 3 comissions this weekend, i´ll post them here as soon as they get approved. ;)
allright, i just sketched Marigolds ;) jinxxy will get a PM any moment.
some weeks ago, before this started, i tried something new for my ponypeople, cameos! :D
they are still in testing how to make them nice, but here is a WIP:
visitors can't see pics , please register or login
the four on the top are the originals, all these below are made from molds using the originals. i try to make them personizable as possible but the probably will be painted in the end. i need to experiment a little more with Fimo at the moment. ^^
-
I just found some fun chocolates for her! I think I will be shipping this week or next. Maybe I will send some Easter candy too.
-
ooh, ooh, still any slots? I was so disappointed to have missed the last one. I really would love to participate!
-
of course I can send candies and goodies for your sister ;) I was thinking I need to send a little package out anyway!
-
ahh, alexia! you are to fast! XD i wanted to be first!! *bounce bounce*
derby girl, the last slot ist still pending, but i let you know imidiately as soon as i know!
i can´t work much this weekend, as a friend an me suddenly got "booked" for an event and as hamburg is far away, we will stay the whole weekend. >o< but i don´t need to go to uni friday, i hope to get much done there too!
-
Hi Emuel, did my box arrive for your sister?
-
no, sorry, no box besides pixies arrived so far, did my picture arrived? *hugs*
also to everyone who hasn´t myadress jet, please tell me, her birthday comes clother ans german customs take forever for international boxes!
-
No, no picture here. Must be going slow. :(
If it doesn't arrive and it gets too close let me know and I will send a new one. It won't have sponge candy like the first though. It goes out of season and its getting too hot for my mom to send it to me to send to you. :(
-
one box arrived today, but i got a notice to pick it up at the post station, because i wasn´t at home. ^^" so i can´t tell if it was from you guys!
eviecorn, please tell me what i can draw for you! sugar and asasara, i made process in both your pictures, did you got my pm? ^^
everyone else, did you already send out?
i am sorry for being a bit slow, i catched a cold and i don´t have as much energy as usual for the day, also i get signs of pain in the ear too, i just want to be healthy again. ^^" its really annoying not to get done enought!
-
^ No pm here, when did you send it? The last one I have from you is from the 17th (did you get my reply?)
I haven't sent my box yet but will try to get it out this week...
-
Marigold! your giant box arrived!! it was the one i had to pick up at the office! and i peeked in and squeed! the little pastel-chicks are so cute!! *squeee* can´t wait for clara to have her birthday! >o<
of course, i didn´t move anything and sealed it wight away again.
everyone, would it be okay if i print the flag of your state/country to put it over the wrapping paper? as in the chocolate trade before, or would someone not like that?
Sugar, i remembered writing you and taking the pictures. but i will work more on your pic now and send you the update right away. ^^ i wanted to ask you if you would prefer golden, copper or silver, as i run out of gold and tend to use silver on the last unicorn anyway. ;)
-
Yay! I was a little worried. It is all candy, a bunch of different kinds. I hope she likes it. :)
Post Merge: April 27, 2013, 07:45:22 AM
Oh and yes I don't mind at all if you print the flag out.
-
Ahh, I see you went ahead with the colors already :D but silver looks great, would've picked that too.
And sure you may use the printed flags, those look neat :)
-
Eviecorn and Keikokukien, did you recieved my pms? i got no request from you! ;) please send them in. ^^
marigold, i´m sure she will be glad. :D thanks for the okay, to sugar apple too. if no one is speaking against it i´ll do that for everyone. ;)
did everyone recieved my adress so far? does someone still needs my adress?
and here some (bad quality) pictures of Sugar Apples request. she asked for the last unicorn in art nouveau style. i picked my fav. scene in the end when all the other unicorns are free again.
its painted with copper and silver color and the watercolors are much more vibrant, but the cam doesn´t catch it. ^^"

i remembered the line (not sure if it was from the movie or the book) that the mane of the unicorns is compared to seafoam on the shore and i always liked that idea. ^^ it´s fragile and yet has something pure.
-
That's beautiful.
-
i hope you get my package soon!
-
OH MY GOSH! YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!
Clara was so stunned!! She did opened all of them on the breakfast table and was squeeing all the time!! she had to rush to school right now but she did took a train later. thank you for all the cards and little notes! she absolutely loved them and will put all of them on her wall in her room. >o<
and all the Chocolate, candy and little extras,.. so amazing! she took some to school with her and i schall thank you a million times! she couldn´t believe it!!
i took some pictures of her unpacking while i also had to prepare her cake for school too, i try to post them as soon as possible! but i have to rush to university too and will probably come home very late. >o<
as soon as i get my feet on the ground, i´ll message you personally, thank you all sooo much for participating!! ;o; *biggest hugs*
You made my sister sooo happy, this made my complete month, thank you soo much!! ;o;
-
D'awwwwwww! This is such a sweet idea. I'm sad that I missed it! *nudges homemade caramels in Etsy shop*
-
yay, I'm glad she liked the goodies :biggrin:
-
Yay! I'm so happy she liked it all. I hope the sponge candy was still fresh. I worried about it.
Your art never arrived so I wonder if customs ate it. Which is very likely.
-
whait, what?? your picture didn´t arrived?? O_O
i did send it, i remembered putting some chocolate behind it too! and one of the kamee! i painted it like marigold herself!!
i am quite overrun with work this week but i will draw you a replacementnext week. i am terribly sorry for that, i did send it out the same time with the artwork for sugar_apple and jinxy. and thiers arrived as far as i know. *facepalm*
i am really sorry dear, please give me some time and a replacement will be on your way. u.u"
and everyone, thank you again!i´m super glad this was possible!
keiko, you´re still getting yours and if someone else had problems about pictures not arriving, please tell me!
i never had something completely not arriving when i send it out so i am getting worried here!
-
No, it never did arrive, I don't expect you to have to do a new one. I just keep hoping it will show up suddenly. I wonder if the chocolate melted and got over things so they threw it out. I once sent something to my parents that never showed up and the only thing I can think of as a reason was that it broke and leaked.
