CRAFT SWAP NAMES PLEASE

OK, have been promising this for a while, so if you've overspent you still HAVE to do it Wink

Theme for swap will be: SUMMER!!! (Coz I'd like one, please Grin)

To take part e-mail your details to [email protected], and leave a name underneath so I can check if i got your message. Pease put your MN name on the e-mail as this is my first swap to run. Ta. Also please tell me any hates / preferences and if you want to, specify scrapbooking, cardmaking, or general craft tart Wink.

Gifts to go out by May 20th, thereby crossing a pay day for everyone I would have thought, and indeed the student grant season.

Parcels should contain:

something shiny
something natural (so paper, dried flowers, shells, silk ribbon etc etc etc)
something girly
something masculine (can be boy if a problem, so train ribbon or whatever)

then make up to £12 with a present of your choice

And finally, add a card you've made if possible.

Thanks.

please do join in or I'll think I am billy no mates......

i think i would like to do this.
can i also suggest everyone gets proof of postage?
question about the included bits? do you mean like a shiny embellishment? or a shiny paper cut?

Whizzz · 21/04/2006 11:56

I assume the 'make up to £12' will include postage costs too ?

Peachyclair · 21/04/2006 12:01

Shiny can be anything..... beads, die cuts, sequins, embellishments- let your mind wander.

Whizzz, I wasn't going to include postage as last time we had to buy a £10 gift... however, I can be persuaded if the opinions on this thread sre strong Grin

Whizzz · 21/04/2006 12:06

I just wondered whether the total cost of the stuff + P&P should be around £12 (I'd vote for that) or whether you pick £12 of lighter stuff so as not to incur high P&P costs !

or am I over complicating it !!!!Grin
(no one mention nappy vouchers !)

Peachyclair · 21/04/2006 12:14

Official ban on:

nappy vouvhers
Tesco computers for schools tickets
etc etc etc Grin

(personally whizzz I tend to pick cheap to post stuff, but ama waiting further opinion)

katzg · 24/04/2006 11:28

i know i said i would do this but i'm going to have to back out - sorry my dream job has come up and i need to do the perfect application to be able to get it, so i don't think i can commit to this! sorry again!

JayzMummy · 25/04/2006 00:51

Peachy....Ive mailed you.Blush

JayzMummy · 25/04/2006 00:52

Good luck with the job application Katz....go for it.

katzg · 25/04/2006 10:28

thanks

kickassangel · 25/04/2006 10:48

yes please! i presume the present will be for a child?

kickassangel · 25/04/2006 11:05

or am i being thick? sorry, haven't done this before - are we putting together a 'craft bundle' for another mner, or doing a present for a kid, with a card & some crafty bits to go with it so it can be wrapped, embellished?

JayzMummy · 26/04/2006 11:54

kickass....I think its a craft bundle for a Mnetter...better check with Peachy first though.

Peachyclair · 27/04/2006 18:08

These have always been done as a gift for an adult... a kids one might be anice idea for the future though.

I am bumping this as there are some newbies about.....
