Description:

If anyone wants to host an International version, please feel free to do so!

**I don't know about the rest of you, but there are so many swaps where I think "man, it would great to get that in the mail!! BUT...I don't know how to make one in return for my partner..." ** Or maybe you like the idea of getting that certain something but don't really like crafting it yourself, as it's not your specialty or strength. Well then, this might be the swap for you!

SWAP DETAILS

-Once you sign up, you MUST list below AT LEAST 3 TYPES of homemade goods that you can offer your partner, and they will choose ONE. For example: whimsy jars, ATCs, homemade journal, notecards or envies, matchbox, maybe even a couple journal pages to peek into someone else's life!

-This is NOT A DE-STASH SWAP, so please not list supplies or materials, it must be a finished good.

-The items you offer MUST be made/created/written by you AND something that you have a decent amount of experience in making.

-Please try to tailor your item to your partners profile if possible, like color choices or likes/dislikes.

-Since all items have a different monetary value, I'll leave it up to your discretion how many you will send, but PLEASE make it a good swap!! Here are some general guidelines:

  • a small whimsy jar filled with goodies

  • 2 atc's

  • 2 empty matchboxes or 1 filled one

  • 6 homemade envies or maybe 4 with matching notecards

  • a couple journal pages on a specific topic

PLEASE-give stuff that you would like to get and that is well-made!

PARTICIPANTS

-you must have a rating of 4.85 or higher with no unexplained 1's or 3's in the last 6 months.

-you must also have at least 5 packages (type 3) sent out AND rated with 5's. By packages I mean stuffed envies, candy swaps, profile surprise, journals, etc...

After we sign up and get a partner how many things do we send to them and do they pick what they want or is it all 3 things??

sduckson 06/28/2010 #

your partner will choose ONE type of item, and I left it up to the sender as far as how many to send, though I did mention some loose guidelines above.

It should be at least 1 large item or a few small items....though honestly, it depends on how much time you put into the craft and the quality.
