Description:

I hosted this swap in another group & thought it might be a success here too!

One person's "trash" is another person's treasure...

This is a de-stash swap with a twist! Since we are all spoiled swappers, we probably have tons of supplies that we'll never use. Or maybe we've changed crafts & have a surplus of other items we can no longer use. Maybe you've received something in another swap & its just not your style. Or maybe you bought something but never used it? Or if any of you are like me, you have more than 3 of everything! Here's your chance to pass on some items that you won't use but don't want to throw out or just send to someone else who might not want them either...

List at least 4-5 items/categories (or as many as you want) in the comments section of what you want to get rid of. When partners are assigned, PM your partner and tell them which 2 things you'd like to receive from their de-stash list. Each item or "set" listed should be worth at least $5 originally. Remember, you are not spending money for this swap, except for postage. These are things you already have, in new & good condition, and should be unused.

For example, if you have a ton of collage supplies and have moved on to some other craft, maybe you want to get rid of a bunch of random paper pieces (not torn up), some paper adhesive & card stock. Or if you bought too many card-making supplies last x-mas, you can list a "Christmas Card-Making Set". Maybe you just have way too much chipboard that you'll never use, or postcards from your last trip. It can be ANY items you think someone else will be able to use, worth at least $5. You'll be sending 2 "sets" to your partner.

Usual swap rules apply. No 1's, 3's or no-sends in the last 2 months. I can angel if necessary, after enough time has passed. PM me with any questions.

According to the instructions, we are to PM our partners to see what they want from our lists. I have no clue who has my name so I don't know what list to choose from!

I have Michele Miles, so Michele, what would you like from my list?
