SWAP WAS A SUCCESS!!! Come Swap Findings, Buttons & Beads of all sorts!

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

We have a couple people interested in swapping Beads and stuff!

The envelope size should be 6x9.

In order to keep all the contents from spilling out on the person when they open it, I put my stuff into a gallon ziplock bag first .

I will close the list to joiners on August 15th So join us in the fun!!

I will keep track of everyone in involved in the first post!

me! I always say I'm going to get in on a swap and never do...beads and findings I can totally handle...

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

YAY! So far it's just us

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

I'm thinking we can do one of those fill an envelope swaps. Nice and easy That way you fill it with beads, buttons, findings and anything the beader in you has around

I was thinking a 6x9 kraft envelope. They are the brown colored ones. When I swap beads and things, I usually put them in a gallon sized ziplock baggie, so that they won't go pouring everywhere if the envelope gets a small tear in it or something in transit

we could just probably ask each other what we have...since it's just the 2 of us...

sounds good, though. set it up. I won't be back until the 10th, so don't end it before then! lol!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Hi, I am not sure what is involved? I think I would like to try. I sell mystery lots of beads on ebay. Is is that kind of like a swap, as far as what I put in it? Is there a money amount? or just what i have lying around that I won't use? I want to make sure what I give is fair for someone elses. i would hate to short change anyone. Thanks missy

Hi there! Welcome aboard!

We just fill the envelope size stated with beads, charms, findings, the sort of thing a crafty beader could use Then we swap. No money amount, just what fits into the envelope There is no money exchanged since we will all be paying postage on the envelopes!

IT's just a way to freshen up your stash

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

The Envelope size should be 6x9

 

[cryssi]

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

hahaha! It looks like it's only us! I even headed over to the main SWAPS board on the Community board and posted a link, but no takers

As of now there are 3 of us! So do you guys want to swap with everyone (we each send out 2 envelopes) or just swap with one? Let me know!
