Swap Coordinator:UrsaMinor (contact)
Swap categories:
Number of people in swap:6
Location:Regional - Europe
Type:Type 3: Package or craft
Last day to signup/drop:March 13, 2016
Date items must be sent by:April 1, 2016
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

Let's get pretty!

You will send a selection of 4 items to your partner, and they will all be something to wear. Any kinds of hair accessories (clips, bobby pins, hairbands, headbands, barrettes, etc.), any kinds of jewellery (earrings, necklaces, bracelets, etc.), socks, scarves, gloves and so on.

This is SENDER'S CHOICE, but you get to list some wishes in the swap comments if you like (not necessary if all is cool with you). You can name colours you like and ones that you do not, and name things you would like and wish for, and ones that you do not. For example:

COLOURS I LIKE TO WEAR: red, brown
COLOURS I DON'T LIKE TO WEAR: yellow, baby pink
I WILL WEAR: bead bracelets
I WON'T WEAR: toe socks

Pick any of the wish types that are meaningful to you, you can leave some of them out if you are open to all kinds of colours and items.

Take a look at your partner's possible wishes and send them 4 items (or pairs of items, if they come in pairs like earrings or socks) they can wear. Please send a variety, not three pieces of one kind of thing. They can match or not.

This swap is for open-minded people who like surprises. If you receive something you do not care for, you can regift it or pass it along in some future swap.

Store-bought and handmade items are equally good. I will not set a monetary value, but let us say this is not about real silver and gold or genuine leather and silk, but then again also not about something you found in an easter surprise egg ;) Choose the kind of quality you would be happy to wear. If unsure about style choices, message your partner.

Edited to add answers to questions:

The dislikes in the comments weigh more. If you say no to green or hair clips, and receive green or hair clips, you have the right to rate down, or demand a resend more accurately.

Likes in the comments should be taken seriously too, but the one making the wishes should consider how easy the wishes are to fulfill, and not make too detailed wishes. For example, making a fuss over the differences of turquoise, aqua and teal is way too picky.

Likes and dislikes in the profile don't matter. It is up to the sender to decide if they want to check profiles or not. Keep an open mind and write everything that REALLY matters to the swap comments.

If someone doesn't send from likes or sends from dislikes as expressed in these comments, should she be rated down or not?

How about if someone has preferences on their profile - do they count the same as wishes in swap comments, or, with swap being sender's choice, it will be sender's choice to check or not check receiver's profile?

Thank you for your questions, I added the answers to the swap description so everyone can notice them better.

I want to add that by white I mean pure white and off white. Also, add leather to the I WON'T WEAR list.

Fever 03/ 7/2016 #

I'm adding to my "I won't wear" list: I won't wear big, flashy jewellery.

UrsaMinor 03/ 8/2016 #

Hahaa, Fever, if you get anything too big and flashy you can always contact me and get rid of them in a private swap with me :D
