My package from Monika: A handy little bat pouch which I've decided to use to carry my pencils and conte crayons for my art class, a pair of faux-leather cuffs, a pair of fabric bracelets with little scissors and sewing needle charms, some stash, and lots of candy! I love it all, and I'm already planning some new crafts with the stash.

lol the notepad already replaced the boring plain-ruled one in my vending binder, I forgot to get it in the pic I guess. XD I've used it several times already, I don't think it'll last long at all!

Newbie here wanting to try out the swap thing for the first time. I would need advice on it cause I don't know anything about it. Is it only handmade? Store bought? Mixture of the two, etc.

Name: Maria Aguilera
Location: Poitiers, France
Ship internationally: sure as long as it's not too big.

Thanks for the help Happy

Awesome. Got you signed up.

Usually, swaps are about 75% handmade and the rest can be storebought items like craft supplies or candies/treats. It all depends on any theme a newbie and vet might agree on, or how many items are going to be sent. Happy

Update @Monika: I'm still waiting on FenThinks' part of the swap. Poor thing sent out before Christmas but the package must've been caught up in the Christmas rush. Her side of the swap is ready to go out as soon as I receive.

I got AnnaBean's package yesterday! Everything is so sweet! I can't wait to use the mystery-seedbombs in the spring Happy I love the ceramic voodoo incense holder... it's adorable! The hair bow and necklace are awesome as well!.

I have almost everything ready to ship to her. I am mostly waiting for the coldsnap here to end. It has been so far in the negatives that my car is not starting!

Yay! I'm glad you like it Happy. I can't wait to get the stuff you made. After this you should start a round 4 since it's now 2014.

Well, round 2 started after the host of the original NvV swap had to step down. I made Round 3 when the Round 2 thread disappeared for a while.

If someone would want to take over the Newbie vs Vet theme, they can let me know Happy It can be kinda tough to manage when it's busy.
