Description:

Did this swap back in Jan 09 and had over 100 + swapers. In 2010 had 93 swappers. Lets have some fun and do it again!!!

This is a loose button swap. Who doesn't have a bunch of loose mixed buttons. Did you forget what it went to? Do you throw all the extras in a tin or drawer? Here is your chance to unload some of them. In this swap you will have one partner to send 10 buttons to. These are not on a card, but loose buttons. Goodwill, and other thrift stores often have bins of buttons, as well as walmart or other box stores. Find the 10 most interesting ones you can, or find the 10 ones you just can't find to go with anything and and ship them off to your partner. Who knows they may just be loved by the new owner. Nothing else is reguirred, but if your package contains anything other than buttons, Perhaps give a heart if so inclined.

Buttons in an envelope will get eaten by postal machines. Make sure to package properly and pay for the additional postage. Saw this in newest swaps and this occured to me. Good luck everyone.

When I send buttons, I actually sew them to a card and place another card on top. Slide into the envie and voila! Also helps to tape all the sides to avoid bursting.... sounds fun! I'm in!

Best use bubble wrap or padded envies - I've received some broken buttons from improper packaging!

I'm a newbie. May I pretty please join!? I have my buttons chosen already.

Please any color buttons but PINK - I just bought a large jar of all different color pink buttons. Was going to make some cards with the buttons, but found they didn't work too good staying on the card and going through the mail, so abandoned that idea. If anyone wants some pink buttons, let me know

I'm going to join BUT please make sure your envie has enough postage. I really don't enjoy having to pay for it! Recently I had to pay for two in another swap. That's no fun and takes away the excitement.

But it is ok to sew our various buttons onto a card to ship, right?

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! This sounds good. I have a huge button tin with masses in, i'm sure I can find something good! :D Xx

Love to use buttons on my cards, and am always looking for different and uniques ones. Great idea!

I have a rediculously large collection of buttons, so you know I'm in! I wish we could have a couple partners!

yomousey 02/26/2011 #

Oooh, I would like pink buttons:)

turtlelady45 02/26/2011 #

If you have any turtle or cat-themed buttons I would LOVE them....otherwise any type buttons will do...I recently bought buttons from a Craig's Listing....the woman had thousands in boxes & tins...I was in heaven when I picked them up! :-)

This sounds like fun! I agree with tatterededge, a couple of partners each would be great. Oh turtlelady45, I hope I'm put with you then because I have a lot of cat themed buttons lol

namabear 02/28/2011 #

Thanks for the tip on mailing the buttons. I like all kinds of buttons and have lots. I use them on my cards and on hair bows for my granddaughters. Im ready with my buttons.

maren 02/28/2011 #

I hope I get some vintage buttons!

sewpixelcute 02/28/2011 #

So, should all 10 buttons be different or can some be the same? I think it would be more fun if every single button was different (colour/shape). It would be a bit boring to get 10 of the same buttons and a bit disappointing if you sent 10 different ones in return :/
