Do you have more embellishments and supplies than you'll ever use?
Is your whole house BuLGiNg at the seams from all your gourding and crafting STUFF?
When's the last time you were able to find what you were looking for in a reasonable amount of time?
Have you ever bought more of something you know you had because you didn't know where it was?
Want to get rid of some of it?
Still want even more STUFF? Well here's your chance!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Gather up your extra
feathers, leather, beads, weeds, seeds, lacings, tracings, scrapers, papers, books, hooks, dyes, ties, stains, manes, stamps, clamps, kits, bits. . .
Bring them with you to the Gathering and use them to Swap for new (to you)
STUFF!

When you are coming to Cherokee, don't forget to bring items to trade. Like last year we will have a "swap table". Bring your surplus embellishments or other gourd related items and trade them for somebody else's interesting "treasure".
When you arrive, leave your items on the table for others to view during the day. The table will be manned and you can come and swap your items at lunch and in the evening every day. Check the sign at the table for meeting times.
For those of you who do not want to leave their items on the table there is the bulletin board. Post notes on the bulletin board describing your item and maybe what you would like to trade for. Meet at the "swap board" at the times listed on the table or make your own arrangements.
If you leave an item for someone to pick up, put their full name on the item. Above all, come and have fun.
If you've already been gathering up some stuff to bring and want to let others know about it, check out the on-line Bulletin Board!
