Description:
Fall is here and it's the most amazing season of all! For this swap you will have 1 partner to send any type of craft (sender's choice) that incorporates Fall into its' theme. You will need to send at least two crafts to your partner. It can be 2 of the same type of craft or 2 different types of crafts, but it does have to be handmade. This is a great way for you to show off your specific type of crafting. It just might get someone else interested in it. Examples: - card making - whimsy jar/box -ATC's -crochet/knitting/sewing - Upcycling Just make sure to include something related to Fall into it. That could include something about Halloween, Thanksgiving, pumpkin patches, the change of color in leaves, fall colors, etc. Make sure to rate your partners on if it's a handmade craft and if it somehow incorporates a Fall theme. Be nice, be fair! A rating of 4.9 or higher is required. I will angel if necessary. This is the first swap I've coordinated so I hope everything goes well! :)

Sounds like such a fun swap! I'd love to join, I'm just concerned about the low rating requirement.

MsDoxie 09/25/2012 #

Hmm, I appreciate the concern. I've only been on Swap Bot for a few months, but I thought 4.5 was reasonably high. No?

I have only been on swap-bot for a little while, too, but I have noticed in coordinating a few swaps that a 4.5 could mean a few 1s or 3s, which usually means someone is a flaker or at the very least a late sender. A lot of people won't join swaps with low rating requirements for personal "don't want to get flaked on" reasons. Hope this helps...

Ok, I updated the details. A minimum of 4.9 required.

Awesome, thanks for changing it, and thanks @drgngirl for explaining!

Just want to leave a quick note for our hostess. I have currently been very inactive, but that is because we moved. We have settled on the other end finally and I am ready to start swapping again! (I've really missed it!) Please see my profile for more details. Thank you for the great sounding swap! Looking forward to this one!

@ SKKCreations- Thank you for joining the swap! I am a little nervous about the process of sending you items. I will encourage your partner, whoever it may be, that they reach out to you for help if they need it, when sending their craft. I trust like you said, that the postage will not be anymore that regularly.

Glad I logged in today or I would have missed this one. I haven't joined a swap since moving and I have a ton of ideas!

@nikkidear So glad you joined! Happy Swapping!

Just want to publicly thank my partner, I received a lovely fall themed sewn bookmark (always looking for one as I'm an avid reader) and a cute crocheted jack-o-lantern coaster!

Hope my partner received my package. Haven't heard either way.
