[rosierjay]

i'm ok with tree or standing ones.

finished phase one of six for plan A.
i'll know by phase two if plan A will work. if not... it's on to plan B *back out while laughing maniacally*

Standing or a tree ornament?
I would actually prefer standing ornament, but a tree ornament is fine too Especially if it's possible to put on a window. We have three showcases in our living room so a standing decoration would fit very well there. ^^


Pony or pony mixed with something else?
Just a pony is fine, 3D ornaments can get very arduous even with only pony to make.


How similar colors should it have?
I'm not picky, as long as the pony recognizable I'm pleased. ^^

Glitter?
I love glitter!

Favorite winter past time?
Sleeping wrapped in a soft, soft blanket and preferably a dog next to me. Other than that I love hot chocolate and watching movies/TV series/anime while sipping it.

Alright let the answering of questions begin!

Prefer tree ornaments or standing ornaments?
Standing ornaments intrigue me as they are news to me! I normally hang skulls and creepy stuff on my Christmas tree so a standing ornament sounds neat. A handing ornament is 100% ok too cause I can hang it from my pony shelf as well. (or maybe get a pony tree! mwa ha ha ha)

Do we want to keep all these ornaments as ponies or is unpony ok too?
I would prefer a pony ornament (seeming how its a MLParena swap) if multiple ornaments are sent I am totally cool with both, but since it's an MLP swap I would like MLP worked into it somehow.

How do you feel if the colors aren't exactly the same as the character's?
Totally ok with me, I know it happens!

Anyone really apposed to glitter before I finish buying the supplies for this?
I honestly would prefer very little or no glitter here please. My hubby came very close to banning the 4th wave blindbags that had glitter on them. :/ "Fairy herpes" as my hubby calls it, gets all over everything and everywhere. I don't mind it myself but he doesn't like it. If you want to do want to use glitter it'll be ok but it'll probably be something that will have to sit on a shelf and not be touched so it doesn't shed. I don't want the lack of glitter to ruin anyone's ideas however if it can be avoided or downsized it would be best

What's your favourite winter pastime?
Probably drinking tea, I drink coffee every day but with winter being a little cooler down here I can actually make a hot cup of tea in the afternoon and be fine. If I try drinking hot tea during any other time of the year its too hot and I feel gross. (South Georgia only has Hot, blazing hot, unusually cold for how hot it was yesterday, and hot again) so the cool time is the best to drink tea. :3

I'm fine with any type of ornament, freestanding or hanging.

I suppose you could even make something to hang in front of the window, especially for the 2D category but why not 3D as well. See e.g. these German lace ornaments for inspiration! http://www.plauenerspitze-modern.de/fensterbilder/

I think I'd prefer a tree ornament just because we don't have much shelf space for a standing one.

[Uninu]

Oh, a window decoration would be lovely! Good point, Griffin

[Unicorn_pops]

I'm good with any type of ornament

[rosierjay]

do we want to keep all these ornaments as ponies or is unpony ok too?

i don't mind pony or unpony. or even a mix or grouping. or however that would work.

*silently follows behind partner for proper box prep. he he he he heh*

[Mkia]

do we want to keep all these ornaments as ponies or is unpony ok too?

I was thinking about asking this question too!

I'm fine with pony, but am 100% open to non-pony as well. A cute handcrafted Aristocats or Pocahontas ornament would be 110% welcomed lol. Or chihuahua or pug or any of my other likes! Or a pony with Marie from aristocats or something of a mix would be fun too!

[UrocyonFox]

Are we allowed to send our partner more than one ornament?

Those window things look neat! Would something like those count as 2D or 3D? I mean they're flat but they're not like paper flat....

[rosierjay]

hmmm... phase 2 might have failed...
how do you feel if the colors aren't exactly the same as the character's?

-so long as its in the same general range i'm ok. i have "baby blossoms" in 6 different colors.

I'm super excited to get in last minute! It's such a privilege. I'm also a part of the Tea and Chocolate Swap and the Card Swap, so I think this will be an amazing holiday season! I answered some questions in those threads and the Welcome Holiday Swappers thread if my partner is interested. I would be grateful for any creation my partner would like to give though.

Prefer tree ornaments or standing ornaments?
I prefer tree ornaments, but I'm OK if my partner has a good idea for a standing one/

Do we want to keep all these ornaments as ponies or is unpony ok too?
Either is fine with me! Feel free to be creative!

How do you feel if the colors aren't exactly the same as the character's?
If it's a shade or two off, that would be OK, but otherwise colors might be something I want to see as close to the character as possible.

[Whippycorn]

Prefer tree ornaments or standing ornaments?

Either for me!

I think it would be nice to have some ponyness to it.


How do you feel if the colors aren't exactly the same as the character's?

I guess sometimes it's hard to find the exact colours, so as close as possible is fine. 

[Uninu]

As usual, these art swaps are supposed to stay pony-themed! I think mixing up something else into it is fine, though, for example a pony and your partner's favorite Disney character.

I will answer all the questions from my possible partner in reply #61.

Pony tree ornament.
