First Off Congrats to thw Winners.....

 

Boy you guys over there have such fab stuff - WOW

 

The best and only sig item we have found is the Secret Agent Coin - now that in my opinion is a kool sig item.

 

(Cant post a pic tonight...?????)

 

PS: Anyone trading those Geogems / Angels / Feathers or other homemade items - Please shoot me an email - Nothing like that at all in this Hemisphere.......THX

I had hoped to have pictures of my new sig items by now but alas I screwed up the first batch. Trying agin so maybe I can still have a few done in the next few days. The good news is that the fimo clay is still on half price sale at Joanne Fabrics!

 

yeh, but not the big block.

what's going to happen to this great thread when the cointests are over? i hate to see it go away as there are so many wonderful sig items being shown. there has been a thread over on the regular forums that has been kinda up and down. maybe we could keep it up!

 

i would like to trade my geoJewels to others for sig items, let me know!

I will be ending the cointest and changing the tiltle on Monday night and I thought about asking to merge this thread with the older thread when this one drops off a few pages. i would ask LFD bout it first. Otherwise i thought of transfering the pics, but then you have no story and a bunch of pics from me :blink:

I think this tiltle better fits an actual "Gallery of Signature coins" as LFD's judt didnt have the action I figured it really should have since 05, but some dang nice sigs! So Im kinda tossed- Should i ask to merge his with mine??? :unsure: Or suggest he ask to change the title??? :blink:

 

OH, by the way...I recieved a bag of precious gems today...GEOGEMS! ~ And guys, lemmee tell ya- Those things are awesome!!! Already placed one in a yet unlisted cache! :ph34r: (to be listed this weekend) One of the coolest sigs I have seen! :ph34r: THANKS!!!

I hope so! This thread shows lovely signature items and really helps all new or old geocachers to discover the beauty of them! I didn't know much about signature items! This thread helped me see some stuff, take some ideas for a future signature item of my own, and hemped me and tought me to be more careful in caches from now on! :D

 

I am calling this thread as a kind of Sign item encyclopaedia! Not only for new collectors like me, but for all!!! :blink:

 

David my friend! How are you? Hey..can you place a photo with the geogems to see them too? :D

I bought the 1.1 lb of original Sculpey clay at Target for $4.99, but they only had the big blocks in white. ~Karen

after lorca run in clay and I put the impression on wood, came it saw and painting.

here a photograph of the paws which gives lorca to you.

some paws are ready and will perhaps visit you........ :blink:

I just came home from a day of caching and trying not to let mosquitoes catch me, and decided to look in my mailbox as I came into the house. Inside was this odd envelope and I'm trying to figure out if I'm waiting for a card from someone or a coin I ordered from somewhere. I couldn't make out a postmark and the stamps on the envelope looked unfamiliar - WHAT IS THIS ?

 

I could feel that there was something inside, but when I opened it, I was speachless - absolutely speachless, and that rarely ever happens to me. Along with this note shown below, was one of lorca.nl's sig item pawprints with a dragonfly attached. It's BEAUTIFUL ! ! ! Thank you so much, you made a really good day a REALLY GREAT ONE ! ! ! Now both the note and pawprint says that I like dragonflies, but I don't remember saying that here in any of my posts. How did you know how much I've always liked dragonflies?

Today I received three sig items in the mail as prizes in this cointest.

 

WOW :blink: thank you 57Chevy!! Your magnets are very cool and so is the keychain. The camera is currently out of commission which is rotten because these deserve to have pictures posted.

 

Thank you so very much for this thread and the cointest! I do love signature items!

I am in the process of making another Geo token. It will be a moon cratered token in both round and Hex shap like this one.

 

spacewater2.jpg

 

This was one of my space themed tiles from my Space Catan game set. Thought it would be a neat token.

This is the master, once a mold is painted I'll get some made up.

How do you do these? They're great!

 

printed some of my images on a inkjet printer, used a circle punch to cut them out, epoxy E6000 (MESSY STUFF) pics to the flat size of flat glass marbles, cover that circle with a nice circle of paper glued on, add little earth magnet and voila! it has taken a while to get the process down to where they look nice. the first batch look rather, well, tacky. :D those are going in caches!

Here is a picture of some of the sig items in my collection and some of mine that I am working on. You can see why I say I screwed them up!! LOL

Well I don't think that you've "screwed anything up" as you say!! I've been following this thread and trying to think of something to "bake" lol but I honestly don't know where to start......and when I do, I'll be chuffed to bits if anything that comes out of my oven is a patch on these!! :D

Well forgetting the face and the antennae on them until it was too late to me means I screwed up. :D:D I have to find the other paint pens so I can add the things I forgot. You should see the others that I didn't take pictures of! This is a work in progress!!!

these do NOT look screwed up! i do think we get better as the more we practice. i know that i wanted them perfect the first time and wanted them NOW. took a while to learn that the pieces needed to be done in stages.

 

this coming weekend i am going to try the baking thing. for sure i am NOT posting my first attempts. :D

These WERE my first attempts so you HAVE to post yours too!!! I was lucky in that I was given the rubber stamp to use for the stamped ones. I decided though that the cherry one is one of a kind as I don't really want anyone asking me for one..... :D

HOLY SMOKES LADYBEE!!!!

 

What more could we ask for?????? :D Those are great!!!!

 

Im Here, but dealing with another project tonight. The cointest will close at 10:00 Californy time :D

 

I have yet to recieve all the great siggys "from the people for the people" so as of now I am unsure as to how many I will have to send out.

 

I will chime in and let you all know how this will be handled in the later today, so far we have a full set of Yaals Feathers from Crowsfeat30 (to cointestians who havent had a chance to win one) and my LE #15 Nightvision to accomodate the other 2 #15's won in the first go around...and thats just the coins!

 

Am awaiting siggys from Summerandnana, Wolf-pack and I have recieved the GeoJewels from RSG...They are awesome! Anyone else willing to danate a siggy for a winner, let me know so I can account for your prize aswell. (please state whether you will ship it yourself or send it to me and how many)- Thank you everyone for the outstanding cointest and awesome Gallery of signature items! :D ... :D

The nickel is a Bison nickel produced by the US Mint. I have always been very appreciative of their minting my own personal signature item! :D
