sweet pea swap, #1

welcome to the sweet pea swap hosted by yours truly... this is a spot to exchange goodness and love around our lil earth... its a chance to obtain stock or give away part of your surplus.... not to mention, it's a wonderful excuse to shop, thrift, or craft! all things vintage and new can be loved and appreciated here...

it's simple to join, and free too (aside from gift and shipping costs)... you need only to be a consistent blogger (or highly recommended by someone who is)... fill out the questions below and email me...you will then be partnered with someone swell and given info about them... and they too will receive your info (not anyone else)... there is no doubt you will be a loyal buddy who will ship out in the allotted time frame... after all, no one wants to have an empty mailbox! for those of you who are not from the states, i will be sure to partner you with someone who is willing to send boxes beyond the border...

*thanks to miss leslie from paper princess, for her inspiration on how to set this whole swap up... please be sure to check out her gifty swap as well; it's fantastic!

*the paper/ribbon swap is now closed... so sorry:(

the very first round for sweet pea swap is PAPER -N- RIBBON.... (of course i'd have paper somewhere involved!)... so it's time to bust out all that beautiful paper you have lying around... handmade, cardstock, scrapbook, vellum... even vintage magazine clippings or wrapping paper... even books that are your own (not a loved one you are currently upset at, or a library book)... anything not tattered and torn but pretty enough to use!!! if you are in the mood to shop around, hit the craft stores or dollar stores... thrift shops or rummage sales... be creative and inventive but send those delicate papers!

and ribbon! spools of ric rac, new or vintage... fuzzy or satin ribbon... thick or thin... lacy or velvet... beaded or embroidered... with flowers or with polka dots... handmade or purchased... thrift or brand-spankin' new... whatever is your partner's fancy, enjoy fishing through bins of lovely ribbon!

* a note: please pack items carefully... we don't want any papers being demolished during shipping and/or weather... thank you ;)
