Question: Can they be vintage "ad" type magnets? Like, the old fashioned Coke, Pepsi, etc. magnets that people collect? I know we don't want to send the ones that are basically magnetic business cards, but I know the vintage style ad magnets are really popular and that's most of what i have. Just wanted to see if those would be okay before I signed up. Thanks! This sounds like a great swap.

Also is there a minimum size. I just got some button style, really a plain clear blue round less than an inch, set of magnets.

I would not like to send just 'one' of them in a swap like this, but I would in a goody box for an RAK.

But some folks would send one out of the set.

Would that be allowed?

I love magnets and would love to swap in this swap, but size means a lot.

Also there is an awesome seller of magnets on Ebay, umm, I do not know if she makes these or not. They look professionally done, but in case ....

Let me get the link for you, if I can remember it. ( I have a ton of things to get done first)

@ LINBUR0100 - Yes, vintage Coca Cola, Pepsi, etc. Magnets are ok. You're correct. Like you said, no business cards on a magnet or pizza place magnets. Those are useless and free anyway.

@ fawnscrafts - Good thinking. I will revise this swap to include the dimensional guidelines!

I will be joining when it gets closer to the due date. Have other swaps I want to get out of the way & mailed off first.

Id love to have the Coke~cola magnet, my whole kitchen is in the vintage old coke~cola style.
