Description:

I've decided to start an ongoing series of international theme swaps on all different.. well.. themes!

For this one, the focus is 'A Touch of Nature'.

You'll be sending your partner 3 - 5 nature-related items (if they're small or something like embellishments, please send several of them/a packet to make up for this). I'll let you use your own best judgment, but personally I'd recommend using these swaps to perhaps de-stash and cater towards your partners profile where you can. Quality and thought over quantity - please don't send crap! :P


Tips:

  • Be inventive and use your imagination! While some themes may be considered pretty straightforward, others are open to interpretation.

  • Catering towards your partners profile is always a great idea. While it's not essential, it's important to check profiles anyway - the last thing you want to do is send your partner craft items if they're not a crafty person and have no use for them.

  • If you're having trouble finding items to match your partners tastes, try sending them a message and asking if they could tell you a little more of what they like (it doesn't hurt to ask).


Let's go for a rating of 4.8 for these (with no recent unexplained 3's or 1's) and a filled out profile (this is something I insist on - it doesn't have to be long, but it needs to be detailed enough that your partner will have plenty to work with). If you can't meet this criteria but there is a good reason for it, please send me a message and I may still allow you to join. Newbies - with filled out profile and at least five type 2 or type 3 swaps completed - are welcome. :)

Sounds like a fun swap, but the rating requirement is very low. Strawberry, will you be able to angel this swap?

Though the rating requirement is low, I do check everyone's profile quite thoroughly and ban anyone suspicious. And yes, if need be I'll angel this swap (although I hope it won't come to that) - I usually offer to angel all of my swaps, although few have ever been flaked on (or maybe they haven't taken up my offer?).

But you're right, I could see to increasing the rating requirement a little. I've changed it up to 4.8 for now. :)
