World Wide must have a rating of 4+ with no "no sends" in the past 2 months. NEWBIES WELCOME!!

IF YOU WANT TO SIGN UP FOR THIS AND WILL BE WATCHING IT PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT AND I WILL SEND YOU A MESSAGE CLOSER TO THE TIME. I KNOW ALOT OF PEOPLE DON'T RECEIVE THE MESSAGES FROM SWAP BOT.

PLease fill a small flat rate box with hand made items, gently used, or "found" objects for paper crafts or other crafts your partner enjoys. I copied and pasted the price list for the box you can pick up free at the post office.. It would be nice to wrap the main gift in the box as a present. ITEMS DO NOT HAVE TO BE SEASONAL THEMED.

UPDATE.... if there are things you would love to have or themes you are more interested in please put a WISH LIST in comments. this was a recommendation Shergi

I am doing this swap mainly since I don't have many friends/family to get gifts from. I don't know about you but I love to receive gifts.

UPDATE...Someone said this price is wrong.. That it is $6.30 Small Flat Rate Box Domestic Rate: $5.35 at the Post OfficeΓ’β€žΒ’ Size: 8 5/8" x 5 3/8" x 1 5/8" Good for: Small Electronics Jewelry DVDs and CDs

I am confused by the international pricings as it says US only....

christygirl 07/22/2012 #

I am going to watch this swap and the reminder will be very welcome. Thanks!

Comment above from@xomama... I see what she means and I think it was just an "oops" while setting up swap. In the "fill in the blanks" part of the description it says "regional, United States", but as we scroll down a little further it says that the swap is "worldwide". Maybe, just hit the wrong button?

DecoPalace 07/22/2012 #

will fix that now thank you both

sweetpea22 08/17/2012 #

still says Regional - United States

DecoPalace 08/18/2012 #

The only options it gives me is International or Regional. If I click Regional I have to type in where..

malsluvspink 08/20/2012 #

i'm going to watch this swap and wait till the sign up deadline is closer. Sounds like a fun a swap :)

DecoPalace 08/22/2012 #

I hope you join in and like it.

clutterfree 08/25/2012 #

I'm still confused...is it supposed to be international or US only????

DecoPalace 08/27/2012 #

USA ONLY. It has it listed in the title and in the swap

gmaw2jman 08/30/2012 #

I am watching also sounds like a lot of fun

OrigamiGrace 09/ 6/2012 #

That is an extremely low rating requirement for such an expensive swap.

EllieChaos 09/13/2012 #

I agree with @OrigamiGrace I'd join but I've been flaked on because coordinators let in unrated newbies and people with low ratings

JudalineZ 09/17/2012 #

I would like to join and can you give me some examples what are in the list of items because I am new to this. I love receiving and giving.

DecoPalace 09/18/2012 #

The list is endless.. Any kind of hand made stuff... Then anything you see listed that your partner likes..

I myself prefer lots of handmade items instead of "items". Its more personal that way.

sherig47 09/21/2012 #

I Will watch the swap I think it would be nice if the swappers had a wish list then so you could make some thing for them if you wanted to.

Hate to say this, I don't like to be a party pooper or grinch, but I JUST mailed out one of this size priority mail flat rate boxes a day or two ago & it cost me $6.30 to ship it... I live in NE Ohio & the box was going to California, but I don't think that matters as far as where in the USA it was going... Is the cost the same at ALL US post offices or is just mine more expensive??? (MY post office charges $47 for 6 months for a P.O. Box!! I found out it costs that much for an ENTIRE YEAR in NM!!)

JudalineZ 09/23/2012 #

I sign up for this and now do I need to do next?

DecoPalace 09/26/2012 #

SHERIG wish list is a good idea.. but not everyone can make all things... mm let me think on this.

CRAFTY I checked on line for the price so I wonder if the site just isn't up-to-date...

JUDALINE just wait for partners to be called..

DecoPalace 09/26/2012 #

MY WISH LIST........ NO METAL stuff to wear, I'm allergic. I love hair stuff, mostely the combs with beads between them and claw clips for very thick hair.

COLORS.. pink, purple, blue mixed are best... NO green unless its very minimal.

THEMES.. Asian, animal especially white cats (I have 4) blue merel dogs (I have 2), check out my profile for more...

You can make me anything and I will like it. I love hand made stuff!! I would like to see other crafts that I don't do if you know lots of things.. I do paper fans, just started matchboxes and ATCs.

gmaw2jman 09/27/2012 #

I am watching the swap but my concern is the ship date. Holiday shipping is so hectic from thanksgiving on that what might take 2 to three days could take a week. If your person waits until the 22 to ship than it would not be there until after Christmas.

DecoPalace 09/28/2012 #

@gmaw2man good point.. will change date right now

gmaw2jman 09/29/2012 #

Thank You, I am still watching but now definitely will sign up once I get my Oct swaps out of the way

ANYONE WILLING TO SEND A RAK TO ME FOR MY NEPHEW???

My 14 yr old nephew and 17 yr old niece are in foster care thanks to my sister... My nephew is coming here to live (I'm in AZ and he is in IN). He has had a very bad life. He knows no body but me wants him.

I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to send him something with words of encouragement. No religious stuff. Things with a boy theme, I have never been able to make boy themes.. I plan to try to make a few things for his room.

His favorite color is dark blue, which I just painted his room. He likes space ships or stars to put on the walls.. Other than that I don't know what he likes. I wasn't allowed to talk with him for many years since I told my sister she didn't deserve those kids.

The social worker is coming on Oct 4th to check us out to see if I get him for sure or not.. They told me it would take 2-3 months for the process and its already been over a month.

His name is Nathan

Thank you for considering this!
