Hello! My name is Jacki. I've been swapping for over ten years, hard to believe!
Current favorite swaps are making envelopes, flipbooks, and items for handmade journals. I offer RAKs and wishes regularly and enjoy private package swaps with reliable swappers. I enjoy exchanging letters, but am not always great at being a consistent penpal.
I'm an understanding swapper and don't look for reasons to down-rate. I never look at post marks - if you're sending a bit late, I donโt mind and won't even notice. If you are sending significantly late or mess-up in some other way, message me and we will work it out. If I mess-up, I will do everything I can to fix it to your satisfaction.
I strive to encourage others in their craft, express gratitude for everything received, and live by the words of JM Barrie: Be kinder than necessary.
FAVORITE THEMES - Floral, botanical, nature, artsy, earth friendly, reading, animals, birds, bees, butterflies, watercolor, things with texture, uplifting words and phrases, paper with stitching. I like grungy, shabby, vintage, whimsical, bright, and fresh. I prefer artistic/illustrations over realistic images/photos.
YOUR ART - Anything handmade by you, in any medium, any theme, would be a joy to receive. I especially adore embroidery, watercolor, and crochet (none of which I can do).
PACKAGES - Candles or melts (flowery or fresh scents), lip balm, mints, earth-friendly items, perfume samples, anything hand-crafted, wide fabric headbands, list of recommended books (mysteries especially), useful/practical items, unique items from your locale, anything from or inspired by my Etsy Favs.
SNACKS - Milk chocolate with crunchy/crispy bits, Fry's Turkish Delight, fizzy/effervescent candies like Swizzles Love Hearts and Brause-stรคbchen, minty candies, salty and spicy snacks. Not a fan of dark chocolate, gummy candies, meat-based snacks, or herbal tea.
I do not craft or create with the following. I welcome these as topics in letters/cards, but would not use these types of craft supplies (stickers, washi, diecuts, ephemera):
๐ซ childish, fantasy, celebrities, fashion
๐ซ holiday related
๐ซ tourist or promotional items
๐ซ used postage, memo sheets, post-it notes
๐ซ religion, spirituality (angels, Bible, tarot cards, astrology)
๐ซ things with human faces give me the creeps - like this and this and this
Would not use these things:
๐ซ traveling items like friendship books, slams
๐ซ knick-knacks or little things that sit around the house with no purpose
๐ซ make-up, nail polish, bath bombs (but I do love perfume and lotion samples)
๐ซ no tea for me please

Thank you for granting my WW Wish for October!!
WW Oct Hello! Thank you so much for the pretty birthday card and stickers. Im going to add your quote to my journal. Thank you for including it as well. I appreciate your thoughtfulness in making my birthday month special. Deborah
Thank you so much for granting a couple of wishes for WW October! I really love the bookmarks and card!
Thank you for your letter, Halloween card, and hilarious goose sticker and squirrel PC you sent for my October WW. I thought you sent the squirrel PC b/c I had told you about our resident squirrel, but I don't think I have. I'll tell you his story in my next letter. The PC ("Am I the Drama?") fits him so well. I cracked up when I saw it. =D Thanks for the chuckle!
