Description:

Arrrrghhhh me crapalicious sisters! Put your pirate hats on, throw on some knee high waders and prepare to hunt through your crap! You will make your matey a wonderous treasure containing some of your hoarded crap. I'm keeping it small. First, this is international. So smaller bits and baubles, paper things, flat things.....those will save us all on shipping. Secondly, we all know our issues about parting with our crap. So small is a good and will probably leave us less anxiety filled :)

I'm not going to go into the stuff about ratings, flakers and what our definition of crap is since this is a GROUP ONLY SWAP and we know all that stuff already. We love our group, we love talking about our crap and trading crap so we won't flake. This is my first time hosting a swap so be gentle LOL. Any questions just post them in our forum or you can PM me.

~Here is the nitty gritty. You will be sending to one partner. Send a minimum of ONE of EACH item on the scavenger list. There are a total of seven items on the scavenger list. If you wanna send extra crap feel free but it's not a requirement.

~Please include a note that identifies each item. If you want to tell a story about where/how you found some of the crap you sent you are welcome to do that also.

____That is it! Let's have some crappy fun!!!!______

_______You need to send:______

*Something Rusty

*Something Ephemera

*Something To Alter

*Something Vintage

*Something Sparkly

*Something Fabric

*Something That Is Sender's Choice

crescendo 03/20/2009 #

hmm, I don't have anything rusty, but maybe I can leave some other crap in the rain and be ready in time to join!

nolagirl 03/20/2009 #

Crescenso - start looking around in parking lots. I find a lot of great rusty crap there!

SewSouthern 03/20/2009 #

This sounds awesome and ...stressful, I am going to HATE parting with some of my precioussssss.

MissMayhem 03/22/2009 #

Rusty nails anyone? I'm sure I can find a few in my backyard lol

ColorInFusion 03/25/2009 #

I have alot of rusty stuff good for rusting fabric and paper, cool

crescendo 03/25/2009 #

whoa, @nolagirl I think I had a dream last night that I found a piece of perfect rusty crap for the swap in a parking lot! ha! that is too weird, I think I am spending too many late nights in the precioussss forum...it is seeping into my sleep psyche...

Rie60 03/26/2009 #

As you can see i'm totally happy about this swap

ChristyC11 03/27/2009 #

He looks so sweet, thinking about precioussssss crap......awwwww

SewSouthern 03/28/2009 #

Are copies of Ephemera OK????

winkwink 03/30/2009 #

SewSouthern:Are copies of Ephemera OK????

LOL Me thinks you are having issues parting with your "precioussssss"?

s'ok, I had to google "ephemera", and i do have some (surprise surprise). So yeah, would people prefer copies or just 1-2 precioussss pieces? Me? I lean towards precious originals, sigh..

halfwaythere 03/31/2009 #

I will have to go on a hunt for the rusty items, but the rest I have tons of.

Ephemera is just stuff you would normally throw away. like lottery blanks or fortune cookie fortunes or ticket stubs or receipts or or or...

winkwink 03/31/2009 #

oh. In that case.. i have even more than i thought.

ChristyC11 04/ 1/2009 #

Probably just ask who you are sending to Sew to see what they prefer. It's all preciousssss and gooooood :)

SewSouthern 04/ 6/2009 #

Ummm, Halfwaythere...I don't normally throw that stuff away...but I guess I don't have to make copies of every piece of crap!

halfwaythere 04/10/2009 #

Lol @SewSouthern I don't normally throw that stuff away either!

I thought I'd help winkwink out a bit because I remember how unhelpful googling ephemera was when I did it. :P

halfwaythere 04/12/2009 #
