Description:

First off, I'm sorry to make this a US ONLY swap, but with all the problems with swaps going missing (mail) and the cost not only to send something once, but two or three times can really add up. I know swap bot is filled with wonderful international swappers, so I'm very sorry I have to limit this to US only. Please feel free to start an international version.

Anyway...

I LOVE anything that's handmade...and I love making quality gifts for people. In this swap, you will send one (or a couple) handmade gift tailored to your partners profile (in other words if they say their favorite colors are brown, pink, and teal. And they DO NOT want any socks, do not send them black and white socks) the value of this swap must be at least $25, meaning you would pay at least $25 for your item if you saw it in a store, on etsy, at a craft fair, etc...

Swap Requirements.

Anyone who has at least 25, 5 ratings, 10 of which must have a value threshold of $10 or more. Post card, and email swaps do not count toward requirements. Total rating of 4.8 or better with no, no-sends in the past 30 days. If you have been rated unfairly, and are fighting a rating you must PM me first. Sorry, no newbies for this one.

I will not ban until the sign-up date has past, so there is time for you to meet the requirements.

Since this is a swap for a quality handmade item, I have given two months before your item must be sent.

Please PM me if you have any quesitons.

can we send more that one item i don't knit or crochet but i sew a little and make altered journals , necklaces, and various paper products. that i can taylor to my partners profile

Daffy, I personally would pay $20-$25 for a nice altered journal. But if you wanted to send something like a journal and matching notecards, like a stationary set - that would be fine as well. Thank you for asking.

The $25.00 thing is all kind of relative, right? Someone might make something that they think is worth that amount and would pay that amount themselves for it. But, someone else might not pay that amount for it...etc. You are basically using this as a guide, right? :)

Yes just a guide. In other words, I'm trying to avoid someone making and sending 4 bars of handmade, nicely packaged soap, and getting a hair scruntchie in return.

Yes, I received mine, but it wasn't worth more than $10.00, very dissapointing.

You should have checked my retail shop...your package was worth far over the price limit. How totally ungrateful and spineless to remark here but not send me a message.
