Description:

For this swap, you will send your partner and envelope at least 5x7 for international locations and 6x9 for stateside locations filled with items relating to all things French & shabby chic.

You may use genuine French items, vintage ephemera, vintage-style items or reproduction items so long as the overall feel has a French, Parisian and vintage/shabby chic feel.

Suggested items:

  • Cavallini postcards
  • vintage postcards
  • vintage/antique book pages (bonus if they are French)
  • French
  • anything Eiffel Tower
  • stickers
  • tissues, napkins, etc
  • notepads/memo sheets
  • stamped images (see comments section)
  • stationary
  • labels
  • photographs
  • bookmarks
  • ATCs
  • calendar pages (see comments section)
  • handmade envies
  • French postage stamps
  • lace, ribbon, buttons

To keep postage low for international swappers/swap partners, you can keep this a flat swap. If your swap partner is in the same country, you should include a variety of items since postage will be cheaper anyway.

All items must be clean and free of any strong smells like smoke, mold, mildew, mothballs etc. Don't send anything you wouldn't love to receive yourself.

Please include a note to your partner.

If you're interested in this swap but are not located in the US, please PM me.

Stamped images: you must use cardstock - not just plain paper - and stamp images cleanly so that they are easy to see/use. I'm making this a requirement because I've joined stamped image swaps in the past and ended up with pieces of paper that had faded images on them and that's just pointless because you can't use them for anything.

Calendar Pages: yes, you can use them IF they are clean and not written on - please don't send your partner something that has your whole life written on it.

Would love to join, but have too many demands right now. I hope to see this swap in the future.
