Description:

If you love vintage like I do, you're probably always on the hunt for little treasures. This swap is for the vintage lover!

You will need to hunt out and send 3 things from the list below:

  • a vintage photo
  • a vintage postcard - used or unused
  • an old key
  • a length of vintage ribbon, lace, or trim
  • something tiny (fits in the palm of your hand)
  • 3 vintage buttons
  • a piece of vintage ephemera
  • something with handwriting
  • something from a game (game piece, flash card, etc)
  • jewellery (to be worn or crafted with)
  • greeting card - used or unused
  • something metal
  • vintage book page of any kind
  • something with the color red

I think the postage on this can be kept pretty minimal, so I'm leaving it International.

The items you send must be actual vintage items, not repro. This is sender's choice, but it's always nice to look through your partner's profile to see if you can find something that would really make this extra special to them.

Don't forget to include a little note with your SB name and the swap name. Also, please indicate which of the above categories your items fall into.

If you receive 3 items that go with the above requirements, kindly rate your partner a 5. Hearts are up to you :)

Let's have fun swapping vintage!

Hi can I ask what age is considered vintage for the purpose of this swap? Thanks! :)

sassafrass 04/22/2015 #

Good question @Ikran3 :) I'm going to say at least 20 years old. I know that's a guideline used many places, so I think that's fair, although I think many of us prefer the older the better :)

This is a wonderful idea! I hope you'll continue to do vintage swaps in the future. :) LOVE!

I definitely will @punchypirate :) I love vintage, and I think lots of gals in the group do too!
