The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations so please read carefully:

• I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.
• What I create will be just for you.
• It’ll be done this year (2009).
• You have no clue what it’s going to be. It will be something made in the real world and not something over the internet. It may be a mixed CD. It may be a poem. It may be a necklace or almond butter cookies or a bouquet of herbs from my garden.Who knows? Not you, that’s for sure! (Not me either.)
• I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

Here’s the important part: In return, all you need to do is post this text into a note of your own and make 5 things for 5 others.

(This idea came via Lisa, awesome pal and dancer extraordinaire, who offered up her own 5 mystery object-crafty-thingies under these same terms. I snagged a spot for one of those, so this is my paying-it-forward-ness.)

UPDATE: And that’s 5. I look forward to coming up with something neat for each of y’all.
