Re: Valentine Biscornu: The Final List is Up!
Ooh That is a pretty one, especially the pink colour!! I sent mine out today, and found out 2 pieces of facts today 1. even though it is called a "Mail Box" you can not send out boxes from it even though it is not called a "Letter Collector" and 2. It is much cheaper to send mail/boxes first class and not standard.. Now if only airports worked that way...

That's a beautiful biscornu. I am slightly worried now that Pixxie will be disappointed when she sees mine because it in no way compares.

Re: Valentine Biscornu: The Final List is Up!
Thank you for the link! I will have a look at it later and go find some nice Biscornu patters. Or something else I likesillypants124 wrote:Veawen: Here is a link to a tutorial on how to make a biscornu if this helps http://own-two-hands.livejournal.com/4186.html" target="_blank" target="_blank.
The time that it takes to make one is up to you and how much you want to work on it or how much time you have to work on it. Some people can whip them out in a day, I have once and it took about 3-4 hours start to finish, and the one for this exchange took about in total 8-9 hours but it drawn out for about 2 weeks (give or take a day or two.)
They can be addictive.... I haven't it that point yet but I have a feeling it's soon because I am itching to make some for friends of mine.. oh boy! lol.

That's true about the time. I will start one this weekend to see how it is and if I have a feel for it and if I get addictive in making them too. That would be fun

Things I love:

Re: Valentine Biscornu: The Final List is Up!
It is so lovely and the floss and the buttons and the pink ribbon
. So beautiful, I had a hard time getting it back from my niece she thought it was a pillow and wanted to put her head on it. I got it back after chasing her down into the living room from my bedroom and right before she put her head on it lol.

Re: Valentine Biscornu: The Final List is Up!
I am so sorry everyone that I have been a bit MIA. I am in a play and life just got really hectic all of the sudden with work and rehearsals. I will be sending my biscornu out as soon as I can. I also received Sillypants' stunning biscornu and will get pictures posted soon. I don't think pictures will do it justice though, it is simply lovely! Thank you!

Re: Valentine Biscornu: The Final List is Up!
Starchild: I am glad you got it and it arrived safely, Who what kind of play are you in? It is understandable, I was getting a little concerned hopeing you didn't come down with some illness it seems everyone here is getting sick. You are very welcome
.
Benceagi: True it can be anything but I like it that I did not want it to get ruined, my niece was trying to rip off the buttons. haha but she did get a hold of it and did fall asleep with it, but I did not have a camera to take a picture of it.

Re: Valentine Biscornu: The Final List is Up!
I received my incredibly cute biscornu yesterday from Xandras.
It is so cute and festive, I am debating the perfect spot for it…..my desk (at work? Or home?), the craft room, the living room?…..hhhmmmm…..
Thanks so much XandraS, you made this a great first exchange for me on these boards!
