Date items must be sent by:July 22, 2009
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

To one partner, you will send:

1) One lip balm/butter (no dollar-store stuff; at least Bonne Bell quality, Etsy preferred, made-by-you WONDERFUL).
2) One ounce of pretty papers/ stamped images/ etc -- the amount you would send in a "one-stamp" swap.
3) One tablespoon's worth of small beads.
4) One bar of handmade soap (by you or someone else, Farmers' Market or Etsy is fine).
5) One "Reduce-Reuse-Reclaim-Recycle" type item such as a small, cleaned-out bottle, a shopping tote, a notebook made with reclaimed cardboard for the covers...y'all on here are so cool, you'll come up with things I'd never think of!

The Rules: Recent logins required (at least one between the date you sign up and the date of assignment). Newbies welcome with filled-out profile AND at least one rated "hard" (i.e., package-not-email) swap. "I like the BackStreet Boys and ponies" is NOT filled out. (Yes, I've seen profiles like that. Don't ask.) Established swappers need >4.8. Recent ones/threes will be inquired about.

Etcetera: Please list allergies/sensitivities in the comments below. Do be willing to be a little adventurous about flavors/fragrances aside from that -- none of the "Mango-Saffron lip butter handmade by Tibetan Monks in a Brazilian Refuge" or "only soap made with cream from the milk of virgin emus" specifications (but if you can come up with something that fits either of those descriptions, I'd like to know!).

I'd like to have at least 4 people sign up for this, so feel free to pass the word :)

I seriously considered joining round one and waited too long. Gotta jump in on it this time!

My only request would be to steer clear of lavender. I like it but it doesn't always like me. You can get an idea of scents and such that I like by browsing through my Etsy Favorites (link on profile).

little nervous about joining a big swap that is Newbie-friendly, but I trust Zia so I'm taking the plunge!

I'm super excited for this swap. I'm sorta a newbie. But I have already got several of these items! So I think it will be fun!

I would prefer to not receive anything banana or chocolate flavored/scented. But I am open to everything else!!!

Thanks for creating this swap Zia!

No mineral oil / petroleum in lip balm, please, and I'm terribly allergic to tobacco smoke. Other than that, Wheee!

Ellie, I'm so glad you caught it this time!

I did clarify a couple of points on the swap description; please re-read it.

This swap looks really neat! Thanks for allowing newbies. ^^
I'm open to all flavors and scents, I don't think I'm allergic to anything. But I do prefer fruity over flower-y.
