If you're going to send something that requires a customs declaration, please price your swap lower than its actual worth / as low (but realistic) as possible!

The regulations have changed and Germans now have to pay taxes even for gifts, which are sent from anywhere outside the EU. Thank you a bunch!

Hi there! I'm Jen, a 30 year-old project manager (web development) and dachshund mom. Binary is for computers, though ~ I’m non-binary and my pronouns are they/them.

In my free time you'll most likely find me working on something crafty. Be it DIY projects, practicing calligraphy/lettering, journaling, creating snail mail, graphic design, crocheting, knitting, making collages, painting with watercolors, or sewing. Moreover, I like singing and take a great interest in psychology.

I absolutely love creating, as well as receiving your creations. Share your art with me! No matter which medium, no matter if you're a beginner or experienced, it would make my day!

I'm always up for private swaps of different kinds! Send me a message if you're interested! :) Some things I have to offer are playing cards, tea, old book pages and illustrations (birds and flowers), shaped paper clips, postage stamps, Diddl sheets, and tons of stationery of course.

I collect old/special playing cards because I'm building a Franken Deck (a deck made of cards from different decks) I want to use for cartomancy! I have a ton of cards to swap for and am looking for:

I am obsessed with Batman & Wonder Woman! Animals I particularly love are koalas, axolotls, lions, and otters. I like the Moomins, Krteček (The Little Mole) and Sailor Moon a lot. Outer space + celestial and botanical are my favorite themes. My favorite colors are dusky pink, royal blue and mint. I love pastels and muted colors just as much as neons and bright colors; a huge sucker for rose gold and holographic too. I enjoy die cuts, stickers, patterned paper, and washi samples.

I'm an eclectic witch, whose practice focuses on the healing and well-being of myself and others. The main tools of my witching are herbalism and Tarot! I have my own small business where I share my herbal magic with the world. 🌿 I do not work with deities or any other higher powers. In addition to the things listed below, I love essential oils (also roll-ons and sprays), candles, incense, spell bottles/bags, astrology (Libra 🌞, Aquarius 🌜, Leo ⬆️), and rituals + spells.

Wishlist/Favorites:

• Tarot cards: Strength, Justice, and the Empress
• Crystals: Amethyst, Citrine, Ametrine, Labradorite, Tiger's Eye, Garnet, Emerald, Tourmaline, Rhodochrosite
• Herbs: Lavender, anything local or special to you
• altar cloths or things that can be used as such
• anything with the Moon (phases)
• homemade oils/potions/salves

Teas I especially like are flavored black/green/white, citrusy, calming ones and anything with lavender. Any type of candy/snacks are welcome! If I don't like it, my partner will most likely love it :D He loves to try foreign candy! However, we both don't like chewing gum. Things we especially enjoy are sour gummies, anything peanut butter, anything pretzel, chocolate bars, the combination of sweet and salty, and chewy candy.
