Description:

Okay so this isn't an original idea, I saw a swap like this on a different site but adjusted a bit for here because I thought people would enjoy it.

The idea is to have a scavenger hunt for items that represent you. Basically you are going to choose 8 of the following ideas and find something that applies that is a representation of YOU. So not profile based or anything like that. The idea of the swap is to share things about yourself with another person. Along with your little items please include a letter or note explaining a bit about yourself and why you chose the things you chose.

You will have one partner, it will be regional unless significant international interest is shown and I would say this should be about a 10 dollar limit, handmade items are allowed and encouraged all items must be in good shape, some may be used but still enjoyable. Please don't just rip out a page of a magazine or something like that..We want quality and the golden rule, send stuff you would be excited to receive! You must have a 4.9 to join unless specific circumstances apply and newbies are allowed if you have a filled out profile and email me first just to let me know you're really interested!

  1. Something with your favorite animal on it
  2. Something edible
  3. Something with your favorite color on it
  4. Something that you think smells good
  5. Something made out of or with paper
  6. Something that reflects your personal style
  7. Something with your favorite character on it (this could be from a movie, cartoon, tv show, etc.)
  8. Something local to your city, state, or country
  9. Something with your favorite design/pattern/fabric on it (like plaid, argyle, stars, zebra stripes, etc
  10. Something relating to your favorite craft supply (like yarn, fabric, tools)
  11. Something you like to collect (non-craft related, like coffee mugs or stationary supplies)
  12. Something related to your non-craft hobbies (like reading)
  13. Something that is your favorite that isn't already listed here (this is pretty much a freebie. You can send anything you want that relates to something you like)

So...these are items that represent the sender not the receiver, but will be given to the receiver? Is that correct?

I am in love with this idea, it's a great way to get to know our fellow swappers, plus us newbies. Thanks for the opportunity.

To clarify I may send like, my favorite candy and my favorite type of smelly candle or what have you. Things that reflect me and I send them to my partner so they can get to know someone new!

Did you cancel the "higher stakes" swap? I had that one on my watchlist. :-(

Well, I certainly like the idea so there's SOME international interest for you.
