Description:

Well, I'm sure every swapper receive something ugly or unacceptable at least once in their swap-bot life, so here's a chance for you to get rid...opps I mean "share" (haha) your ugly items and who knows? Maybe your partner will like them ;-)

So in this swap, you need to send 2 UGLY things you've received from other swappers, you need to explain how you got the items (swappers' identities are not required though) and why you dislike them. It can be something small & light such as postcards, bookmarks, stickers, jewellery etc, or something even something handmade but ugly to your eyes e.g. doll, crochets, ATCs etc.

To "balance" the shock your partner might get from your ugly things, you also need to send something nice and lovable for your partner. So you need to choose 2 BEAUTIFUL things that both you and your partner would enjoy (based on their preference in their profile description & wish list). Just read your partner's profile carefully and choose the best your can find for him/her.

So in summary, you need to send two UGLY things that you've received from other swaps and two BEAUTIFUL things that your partner will enjoy. Include a note or letter to explain why you dislike the UGLY things, and perhaps something nice about the BEAUTIFUL things.

you'd better be EXTRA sure that the "ugly" gift that was hand-made wasn't sent to you from your partner in THIS swap...just sayin'. Sometimes I can't remember who it was that sent me a particular item...and you don't want to hurt anyone's feelings..

@candigirl - yeah you r absolutely correct, I was thinking about the same thing too hehe ;-)

Well I surely have one but I would be afraid to send it , It looks like a 2 year old did it , my grandson did something at 3 that I am proud of so I would not want to make this person feel bad. Sorry.

Candigirl, that's why whenever I receive something that I won't keep I put a label on it with the name of the swapper I got it from ;)

@nuri148 - that's a good idea ;-)
