Great swap idea! Please don't send me twigs, however! :)

Oh my goodness, I love this. I don't, however, have a lot of vintage things to send off. I usually use all my old stuff, so I won't be able to join this one. Enjoy though!

I'm confused... 1 item from the list? Stuffed envie? Or each item? Maybe I'm overthinking... :)

I'm a little comfused, also. Is 15 pages one item? That's a lot of pages to get in a 6x9 bubble envelope! And then have room to put other stuff, too!

Gwillisinc 06/ 1/2013 #

To me, the list looks like suggestions not what you HAVE to send.

i am confused also. what is considered a fulfilled swap>as much as can fit? a random sampling of items? more complete description of swap requirements would entice me to join

Ya this sounds like a cool purge of stuff basically whatever we can stuff into a envie and those are some suggestions the only thing that scares me is receiveing a bunch of junk and bits.I would share some of my very cool stuff but I don't need bits and pieces .I could be in

KogeLiz 06/ 1/2013 #

I'm also confused by the list provided.

KogeLiz 06/ 1/2013 #

So, if we send 2 vintage dictionary pages, it's not considered even 1 item? Suggested list shows 15 pages equals 1 item (?)

KogeLiz 06/ 1/2013 #

@ravenpixielove - a lot of people use "bits and pieces" for mixed media art. The suggest list is pretty much "bits and pieces," My guess is there is a good possibility you would receive them.

doulakk 06/ 2/2013 #

The list is of suggestions. It is detailed, but you get the idea of what some may be looking for with the list. YOU pick and choose what to send and yes, each item that has a number next to it will show what counts as ONE item.

The items DO NOT have to be vintage. They are just suggestions.

I am sorry for all the confusion.
I am changing the size of the envie to a 9"x12". Again, my apologies for the confusion.

I took the time to Private Message each person above that had questions. I hope this helps. Sorry, Kelly K

OwlAntler 06/ 2/2013 #

I will certainly join then! yeah!

kromo 06/ 2/2013 #

I want to join. Just had 1 final question to verify... description says minimum 20 pieces... is that 20 total or 20 of the suggestions that each equal 1? Does that make sense?

luleemik 06/ 2/2013 #

Thanks for the clarification...I'm in!

doulakk 06/ 5/2013 #

20 of the suggested items or equivalent to. Thanks ALL!!!!
