Description:

This is a swap to get all of your current bags moving! It is also a swap to send along some newly made bags. You will send your partner a minimum of 3 bags but more is better! Please be aware that you may receive a ton of bags so only sign up if that's OK with you.

Here are examples of bags you can send (but you can send ANY type) : Sticker bags, label bags, envelope bags, ATC bags, goody bags, postage stamp bags, postcard bags, am I forgetting any??? Feel free to make up your own type of bag, for example, washi sample bag or journal card bag.

Please check that the bags you send are not made by or for your partner. I know I've made that mistake before, but it is surely not fun to receive your own bag!

Only join if you have a good understanding of what bags are. No newbies. I will be checking profiles to see if you are a bag/book swapper so if it's not on your profile you will want to add it in somewhere.

This swap is U.S. only for postage reasons but your bags can be made by or for anyone in the U.S. OR outside the U.S. Feel free to make your own international version.

Homers are allowed. The point of bags is to get them sent home! However, please don't send your partner ALL homers. That's no fun and they'll need some current bags to keep moving in the next round!

If you have any questions I'll be checking the comments but you can PM me for a faster response. Have fun!!!

I'd like to try this. All of my bags will be new ones, but I have a question. Is this an ongoing swap or are there more bag swaps out there that will keep my bags moving? I remember awhile back a nice lady made some bags for me, I sent them out in a swap and never saw them again. So I guess i'm wanting to know how do the bags keep moving??

@judgedbyabookscover there is a group called "Active FB Swappers International" you could check out. (you could look under the group section on my profile for it)

@judgedbyabookscover Well I plan on making this an ongoing swap. Probably monthly. However, yes, there are other swaps that are for books & bags both and that's a good way to pass them too. Keep in mind, though, that the partner you send your bags to may decide to send them out in a different swap instead of the next round of this swap. Also, it usually takes awhile, around a year, to get bags back, from my experience in talking with other book/bag swappers. Don't give up hope. You may see your bags again one day!
