Description:

Okay ladies, it's time to buckle down and do a real destash!

Go through your craft supplies, mail art ephemera, and the like and start stuffing a package. This is sender's choice, so there is no need to be profile-specific. However, if you have the stuff in your stash, feel free to include profile-related things.

This swap should be done 100% out of items you already have at home. They can be new or gently used. Do not send trash! Ephemera is not the same as trash and I think we can all distinguish the difference. Nothing dirty or stinky.

The package you fill up should be at least a 9x12 flat rate bubble envelope (the $7.20 one). You may choose to fill up a bigger package but the 9x12 flat rate padded envelope is the minimum requirement.

As this is a sender's choice swap that can be packaged prior to my assigning partners, keep in mind you may recieve things you don't want - or even things that are on your 'dislike' list.

Requirements to Join

  • 4.98 or higher rating
  • USA address
  • Females only (for personal reasons)
  • A minimum of 50 completed & rated "real mail" swaps - sorry for such a high number of completed swaps but this is the time of year for flakers so I'm attempting to keep them out while also doing a public swap.
  • Last log in must be within 2 days before I assign partners.
  • No 1's owned to active members, no 1's within the past 6 months.
  • No unexplained 1's or 3's (if your explanation is not on your profile or in the rating comment, PM me before signing up for the swap to explain).
  • No 3's within the past 3 months.
  • Not be listed as a bad/questionable swappers in the public forums or Flakers group.

I reserve the right to ban anyone for any (or no) reason. I will be heavily vetting this swap since we are in "that time of year". I also will angel this swap if anyone does inadvertently get flaked on once they have attempted communication with the partner, rated the appropriate 1, and sent me a PM. I vet partners a minimum of once a day and again immediately before I assign partners.

My craft destash includes home decor items that I got to paint over/alter/repurpose... such as shelf decor, small trays/holders etc. along with some paper items, embellishments etc. would that be ok to destash in this swap? Thank you!

*The items are new, some with tags, mostly bought from Hobby Lobby... not junk! I just have no use of them as I no longer craft with this kind of items...

Ugh. I’m at 46 swaps. This blows. :(

@hamolla22 - this is intended more for craft, paper, and mail-type items but you could ask your partner if she would accept the decor stuff.

@splendorpursuit - you'll have enough by the next in the series. :)

Please not the requirement for the mailer is the $7.20 padded FRE.
