Description:

I hosted an International Dotee Doll Whimsy Jar swap the last time I ran this swap but shipping the Whimsy Jars internationally is VERY expensive. I know how expensive because the partner that I was assigned to lived in an international destination and my shipping costs (for the jar you see pictured on this swap page) were just over the $25.00 mark - EEK!! My pocketbook complained loudly over that expenditure...

Which is why I have made THIS swap for the USA only. Sorry about that.

:)

For this swap you will have ONE partner to send a really fabulous Dotee Doll Whimsy Jar to.

Please fill a (decorated and, if the jar is used -make sure it is well cleaned, please. Of course, you may elect to send a plastic jar, instead, if you so desire) pint-sized (16 ounces) Mason-Type Jar with anything suitable for making Dotee Dolls.

Some suggestions for slipping into the Dotee Doll Whimsy Jar might include:

Rolled fabric pieces, Felt pieces for making faces, Skeins of Embroidery Floss, Buttons, Beads, Lace, Ribbons, Charms, Vintage Trims, Embroidery Needles, Metallic Embroidery Floss, Small Jewelry Findings, Ephemera, Beading Floss/String, Silk Flowers, Miniatures, Embroidery Scissors, Fibers, etc. ~ anything fun and fabulous that you think your partner would really enjoy receiving for creating more Dotee Dolls ~ for herself ~ or for upcoming swaps!

Please make sure that you have an informative profile filled in for your partner to read. It makes it easier for you to receive things you will love to work with ~ if your partner knows what you love to work with!

:)

~~ SWAPPING RULES ~~

USA Only.

Swappers should have at least a 4.80 and over rating, please.

(If you feel that you have been rated unfairly, please message me.)

:)

No no-sends in the last three months, please.

I ask that swappers have previous experience in crafting any type/theme of a Whimsy Jar - and know what a Dotee Doll is. ;)

Please have at least 3 hearts at the time the swap begins.

(You do have time to collect hearts before this swap closes!)

Newbies are welcome, but please message me before signing up or else you might be banned.

All participants need to have a filled out profile, please!

Please package your Dotee Doll Whimsy Jar very carefully for shipping.

I suggest mailing your item with a tracking number (or some sort of proof of mailing) so that your partner can watch for their item - and so that you know when it arrives safely to its new home!

Use your partner's profile to guide you in selecting the perfect Dotee Whimsy's to suit your partners taste ~ and please only send items that you, yourself, would be thrilled to receive.

Please remember to decorate your Dotee Doll Whimsy Jar ~ your partner will enjoy having it nearby for when inspiration strikes!

Please remember to RATE your partner when your carefully selected items and specially created Dotee Doll Whimsy Jar arrives to you...

:)

And, finally, if the need arises ~ I will angel this swap.

Please let me know if you cannot keep to your sending commitment regarding this swap. I don't want anyone to be left out or disappointed...

WELCOME!

Have fun and happy swapping!!

<3

I look to have other themed Dotee Doll Whimsy Jar swaps in the future... since I love both whimsy jars AND Dotee Dolls!

:D

ETA: Goodness. I had health concerns crop up and forgot to assign partners! I did not receive a reminder from swap-bot to do so - so I apologize that I forgot! I have extended the Swap-date of the swap, accordingly. o.O

ETA times 3: I have (again) been contacted by swappers who have asked me to extend the shipping date of this swap, again. Since I am now angeling for a person in this swap - I will extend the mailing date of this swap, one final time. Hopefully extending this now through June 21 gives everyone enough time to meet the newest deadline? :)

I am sorry to the swapper who has already sent her item out and will still be waiting for receiving a parcel. I will make that up to you, hon. <3

Thanks for making it U.S.A. only.

chuckles You betcha' shopandbid...

:D

I figure that if I am not happy with an over $25.00 shipping costs pricetag - my fellow swappers/swap joinees would not be happy with it, either.

;)

I too appreciate US Only on this one. I haven't signed up for any whimsy jars until now because of postage concerns. Thanks again!
