Description:

Since joining Swap-Bot, something I've fallen in love with is Whimsey Jars! I love shopping for things I can put in them and have been making some up already. I can't be the only one. I just finished doing series I called "Color Me Whimsey". For each swap we created a whimsey jar filled with the color theme of the swap. Participants who did every swap you ended up with a rainbow of whimsey jars plus a few extra.

But I know that not everyone got to do every swap. It was requested that we do a make up swap. So for this swap you can choose any color you would like or that you missed. Please, when you sign up, comment below which color you would like to recieve.

For those who may be new to whimsey jars, they are jars filled with all kinds of goodies (crafts supplies, stickers, candy etc). Jars should be at least 12 oz and could be plastic or glass. However they should also be decorated on the outside. I personally use recycled pasta jars. I find they work the best. (Cleaned first of course)

Please send clean items. No garbage. This is not a good swap to get rid of dirty items. It may be a good opportunity to pass along some quality items you may not yourself use. Please send something you would like to receive.

Since I am coordinator, I did participate in all swaps. My favorite colors are pink and blue, however I would be happy with whatever color I would recieve.

I dropped out after the first three in the series so I'd love one of these colors: blue, green, purple or pink

May I request rainbow and get a jar of all colored items?

OK then I will like a jar of mixed colors a little of everything is fine or if my partner would rather instead of a rainbow colored jar they can do animal themed (dog, cats, rabbits, ferrets, lion ,tigers, and bear oh my! Lol as I have many pets I make layouts for or zoo trips and my family is a animal loving bunch but I know it's colors not themes but I figured I'd give my partner 2 choices or an idea of things but I'm a huge embellishment lover so I don't mind if it's a mix of everything I'm easy to please ! This is my first whimsy jar so I'm looking forward to it I did a whimsy sock one on one and had a good time this should to decorate the jar.

I HAVE. A QUESTION CAN I USE A PLASTIC JAR SUCH AS A PEANUT BUTTER JAR TO avoid IT BREAKING IN SHIPPING OR DOES IT HAVE TO BE GLASS ?

@craftyanimallover You can use plastic if you like. You are correct, they won't break in shipping and will also be lighter for less shipping costs as well. It doesn't have to be glass. In my experience, glass is much easier to get ahold of since I hate peanut butter but am an avid pasta eater so I always have pasta sauce jars. Some craft stores you can buy new jars. Sometimes they even have plastic ones available.

My partner didn't comment below so i sent a message what should i do if i don't get a response back in a timely matter as i really wan tot get started on the jar today while i have some free time so it can get done and sent early if possible. I'm sure she just forgot to comment as its a busy time for everyone but i want to insure El she likes the jar in the message i stated i i don't hear from her i will make a jar based on a like or color she may mention on her profile is that okay to do or must i wait to hear from her ? And how long should I give her to let me know before assuming and starting it profile based or my choice based ? Sorry I want to insure I do the swap correctly and everyone is happy with the outcome .So any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks
