Five Favorite Things

this sounds like a lot of fun! my five things are: fire, funky, blue, nature & cute.

Cool. Thanks for joining! Wow....BIG range there to choose from!

My 5 are green, irish, stationery, travel, and reading.

I love this idea! :) Just one question - what is the min or max price range?

Me = pink, rainbow, dress, unique, water

(Not saying I want a dress, just interpret it as you will! I'll love anything funky you come up with!)

The max amount is $15. It is up to you about what you spend. If you are crafty, you don't have to spend that much....I on the other hand am not crafty. LOL!

What a fun idea. It's very hard to decide on just words, but here they are:

birds, vintage, textile, blue, sewing

I really like this idea! My words are:

Red, Pez, Cute, Vintage, Snoopy

I can definately do 15 dollars! :D Can't wait for this to begin!

THANK YOU ALL for signing up. I hope this grows even bigger!

Cool idea. My five words are: Fairy, geisha, warm, silent, fluffy....

Is this international?

Thanks...

Sounds fun -- I dont have a rating yet but should by the time this due date rolls around.

My 5 words: orange, sweet, stripes, square and turtle

Sounds great! My five words are: Stars, tin, red, country and beads.

Love the idea: Here are my 5: 1) frogs 2) purple 3) fairies 4) photo frames 5) postcards

Yes, it can be international. Join in if you want! Thanks!!!

This looks really cute, so we send stuff according to our partner's five words, right?

Yes. Like the example I listed....except be more creative. LOL! I am SO glad that people are signing up!

I just want to apologize for my post showing up in duplicate. I was hving some trouble with my WebTV, trying to get my post to show, and in the process it inadvertently poted twice. Please forgive me for my bobble; I'm very sorry abuot that.

My pkg just arrived and it was so exciting to open. All wonderful things! Thanks so much!

I mailed out one of mine today. My other swap had some HARD words but with some thought I found them. I will have to post them next weekend.

Kimberly M, not sure what your username is, but the goodies arrived this past week (I was on vacation all week and got to come home to a pile of swap goodies yesterday), and I LOVE THEM! Great papers, thanks for the card materials, its like the perfect little crafty starter pack. And you fulfilled all five words, many times over. I see a big fat heart in your future! Thanks!

Oogiemama, your package is on the way!

I received a box today from Grace. Thank you!

Cindy B. --- I got the envelope today, thanks :) (Sorry I couldn't decipher your screen name ;))

Princesshammerhead and tateva, mailing yours out tomorrow! (would take longer, using surface mail.)

Petra,Package arrived yesterday. Loving it! What a fun little assortment, especially love the lime white chocolate! I have never seen something like that before. This is why I love swaps!

This swap was a challenge, but it´s so great you like my selection! :)

Petra, I also received my lot of goodies yesterday! You really put some creativity and some work into it to meet all five of my items. It made me very happy! I'd love to see another one of these swaps in the future.

Hi Donna "Diddldonna" - Your pack arrived today - thanks heaps! Luv everything you sent! (And yes I wish it was possible to post real bubbles ;) ) xoxo Kat

Also, Vlcatko and Rainbowsparkles your packs will be sent tomorrow all the way from New Zealand and should take 2 weeks or less. Cheers!

kandm17, I´m so happy you liked your package too! This was a fun swap - I´m so much looking forward my swaps :)

shira and wishcakes, your goodies went out today! Hope they arrive in good shape and I hope you both like everything. I had fun trying to pick out items that would work for this. This has been a fun little swap.

Everyone check out 5 Favorite Things part 2! Thanks for participating in this one.

tateva and hyperoma: your packages are on the way!

I received a box from mlc today. I love what you sent. Thank you! I can tell some thought went into this.

Robot_Shop & Kinghollow, your package will be sent on 19 or 21 May as 20 May is Sunday and I've very important assignment to hand in on 18 May (I'm a university student). Sorry to have it sent so late. I apologize.

I'll will post another message again right after the packages are dispatched.

Thanks

MAM, I received the swap goodies a few days ago. I love how you went with a certain theme - I'm in a scrapbooking craze lately, and everything you sent is perfect. Thank you for everything! You are fabulous.

:)

Ok...everyone should have their package ready to go and in the mail by Monday at the latest.

TO Robot_Shop & Kinghollow,

Your packages has been sent by 1st class royal mail standard and airmail respectively on Monday afternoon from UK.

Kinghollow, plese expect to receive in approx. 7 working days.

Regards, huiyuehin

Rainbowsparkles....please respond to my emails. Your partners are wondering about you.

nursy & urban exotic, just sent your packages. yesterday was a holiday in Canada, so the PO was closed. hope you enjoy what i sent!

I have heard from nursy and Swimgirl who assure me that they will get their packages in the mail soon. I hate that I have to check up on people but I know how it feels to get a package ready for someone only to not have one sent in return.

hyperoma and gwen+cats, I hope you guys like everything! I'm sad, but this will have to be my last international swap. Shipping cost me $60 for the two. >< It would be better if swap-bot could keep people from getting two international partners in the same swap...

$60? Wow that's alot! how heavy were they?

I think your partners should give you a heart for spending that much on the posting alone!

I send out semi-heavy, medium sized swaps and the most I pay for them is NZD$15..

cmhatcstamper, thank you for being patient, your package is finally on it's way!

sugareyes, one was just over 2lbs, the other was actually just over 4. I have no idea how they were that different in weight, though, lol. The postage was about the same on the, though, $27ish on one and $33ish, I think, on the other. Durn post office is gonna' kill my swapping fun.

ok...8 more to go before they are all sent out!! YEAH!

SilverWing wow - that would so put me off swapping if that happens here! I would probably only be able to do 1 swap a month! at least most of you guys can have US only swaps - I'm afraid if I have a NZ only swap I'd be sending to myself! haha - then again I'd love what I get and get a good rating ;)

It's been a week yesterday. All swaps should be sent by now....unless you emailed your partners and told them otherwise.

veggiemommie-thanks for the swap package -love the lilac stuff and the handmade bag-Chris H.

Thanks SilverWings! Just looking at the postage alone, I think you're a great swapper already.

Is there anyone else that hasn't gotten theirs yet? Other than international swaps.....

I haven't got mine :(

Donna

Still no signs of Princesshammerheads package :( Has it lost in mail?

It finally reached me, yey! :) I´m done!
