Description:

fter a rather disappointing ziplock on my last swap, I'm going to be more specific on this one. This is a great group, and I know members can produce really exciting ziplocks. So we're kickin' it up a notch!

OK, so. A ziplock bag containing the following items:

  1. a Handmade item your partner will love, relating to their profile, as in a hand-sewn purse if they say they love purses.
  2. a store-bought craft supply that you take out of your inventory or buy that is unopened and new and relates to your partners crafting, ie: a three-pack of stickles for a card maker/scrap-booker.
  3. A personalized book to write in. Can be a storebought book that comes with your partner's initial or favorite craft on it. Or you can make it and personalize it. This can be any size.
  4. Something floral. Maybe some floral paper for a scrapper, or maybe some silk flowers for a person whose into that. Can be anything floral. Must relate to your partner's profile in some way.
  5. A scented soap or lotion, but not from the $ store. New, unopened. Nice quality. Find something your partner will enjoy by consulting their profile.

The ziplock bag can be whatever size will contain all your items. This swap should knock your partner's socks off. The package should look glamorous or cute and gifts need to be wrapped or displayed beautifully. It is profile-based. It will not be cheap to send, so don't join if you are struggling with making ends meet this month. I don't want to cause hardship.

I will be screening this VERY carefully. I will be reading profile comments as well as looking at your ratings. Nobody iffy! If you have any threes or ones and you haven't discussed it with me, PM me before joining. It will not be OK to send late on this swap!

I had to make some very difficult bans on this swap. I didn't let some rather new members join, just because this is a really demanding and kind of expensive swap to mail out. I don't usually ban newbies due to inexperience if their preliminary ratings (as these two's were) are quite good, but I did this time due to the nature of the swap. Neither of the members who were banned had any real strikes against them but neither of them had done a swap like this one before. I'm going to do this in a month or two, and I hope that if both of them are still doing as well as they are now, that they will consider reappyling. Know that if you were not included in this swap, it wasn't personal, and that we do want you next time, when you have a couple of larger package swaps under your belts. Sorry ladies.
