Embellishment swap

I love sequins, rhinestones, charms...unusual & hard to find beads & trinkets. I love color, color & more color!!! Much love to my fellow "swappies"!!!

Shiny, small, COLORFUL. Can't get enough beads, buttons, floral shaped anythings, sequins, rhinestones or surprise-mes. Raiding my personal stash and some shopping for unknown treasures I have yet to find(its a tough job, but I am willing to do it. LOL) will net you a great little package! Can't wait to get going. I too send Crafty love to all.

I adore brads and eyelets in all shapes and sizes. I am also addicted to prima flowers, just can't get enough of those, in all possible colours and sizes. I really like those neat little photo holders and I'd also like some plain old photo corners, those are so handy to have. I love stuff in metallics, both shiny and not so shiny. Those round little beads, the ones that don't have holes in them are extra cool too. Don't forget the scrabble letters!!!!

All things are good. Beads, beads and more beads. Anything vintage looking. Wooden adornments and sun, moon and stars.

Shiney things, watch parts, scrabble tiles, pewter charms/castings, pressed flowers, unusual buttons,

I love anything that is worn and aged looking. I LOVE buttons and ribbon and think my obsession might be a problem :) I love rhinestones. I love any kind of flowers. Not a big sticker fan :)

much love-

I love anything vintage: buttons, trim, bias tape, ric rac, embroidery, glass beads. Also I love semi-prescious stone beads. I don't scrap-book, but I sew and quilt and knit. Charms are fun, too.

Old, rusty, worn, faded. New OK too. Buttons, beads, trim, old lace, old ribbon, junk. I love it all. Can't wait for this package to arrive !!!!!! Will have lots of fun assembling items for my partner.

I've just cleaned out my art cabinet thing and discovered how many embellishments I have! I can't wait to send all these out and get a few new ones.

polka dots, charms, buttons and beads. i love all things preppy, pink, green. love grosgrain ribbons.

I love brads, eyelets, small beads, prima flowers, ribbon, etc. I love bright and happy colors (not neon), music theme and flowers. I am so excited, thanks for letting me join.

I love old game pieces, dice, checkers,dominoes etc. Any small charms, eyelets, brads, etc. are awesome too! Skeleton keys, little locks, I am a found object nerd!!! BUttons, fibers (I just started crazy quilting and need small lengths of ribbon, cool yard, and fibers!) This is going to be so fun!

i love animals, hearts, dices, skulls, wathever-shaped plastic beads; glow in the dark and glitter things (not neon); aged looking or mexican looking stuff... i don't like gold or silver like things and neither flowers...

take a look at my flickr and myspace in my profile so that you can get an idea of my tastes ^^

can't wait to receive and send my package!

I love embellishments, but mainly ribbons, charms, and buttons. I don't sew or knit at all, I use all my embellishments on cards. Looking forward to a great swap!

I'd love to find a little gifty in my mailbox with anything vintage--ribbons, beads, buttons, rhinestones, ric-rac, fabric trims...I sew and do a lot of fabric and paper craft, but not scrapbooking per se.

Trim, ribbon, buttons, lace - anything vintage. Buckles or purse findings would be great also. I enjoy sewing - not so much a scrapbooker. Already started a package to send! Can't wait!

i love love pink, lace, BUTTONS, sequins, ribbons, ...basically anything fun and girly!!! also vintage stuff too! i cant wait to see who my swaper is!!

I don't do a lot of scapbooking but I do have an art journal so my preferance would be for things which would go in a flat book. I'm looking forward to seeing who I get so that I can try to find something here in Australia that they might enjoy.

I'm a found object junkie, as I love doing assemblage. I like quirky unusual things...larger is fine. I especially like things from other countries, coins, matchbook covers, ticket stubs, small souvenier buttons. Also anything with some age to it...a rusty nail, piece of tin, old bottlecap. I'm not into eyelets, but do like interesting brads, clips, that sort of thing. Not a scrapbookie or card maker, more into collage assemblage and art dolls.

I like making altereds. I like weird, wild, wacky, bizarre, weird circus, zetti, witchie, tarot like.I like out there items.

I like art dolls, bookbinding. i love collage.

Weird is good.

anything that will work for cards or scrapbooking, because that's the kind of things that I do.

I am drawn to anything foreign, metal, found in the gutter, beat up. As others have said: 'weird and quirky' is good. But then, on the other hand, I love the muted colors and "stuff" that makes up the shabby palette. I've decided to love whatever I receive!

I do not have the requirements for this swap - however I have a huge spindle of red glittery lace if anyone would like to swap for something indapendently. Contact me at sashvh@yahoo.com if interested.

I am a cardmaker constantly on the lookout for that special little thing. A few centimeters of ribbon, a cool old button, parts of a boardgame... if you can glue it to a flat surfaces - it´s in my taste!

I love all sorts of stuff. I don't scrapbook but I do participate in Fat Book Swaps so paper stuff is great. It's just fun to swap out.

I am looking for patches, especially "boyish" ones like spaceships, trucks, dinosaurs, guitars, NASA... Also, I like big stickers that are good for decorating folders because I'm a teacher.

i love color. i especially like greens, blues, pink, red, chocolate brown, and black. i like polka dots, argyle, owls, robots, and dinosaurs. i love mid-century vintage. anything i could use to make jewelry or packaging for my creations would be great. i'm not really into floral prints or gold colored things.

My embellishments are packaged and addressed, and ready to go out the next time I get the chance. ^^

mine are mailed surface will get to where they are going in a week to 10 days

I'd love to get some vintage embellishment items...old buttons, bricabrac, ribbon, lace, fabric, paper...I'd also love old typewriter keys, postcards. Can't wait to send off the goodies I'm collecting for my swappy!

I got my embellishment swap today. Stickers and more stickers and butterfly rubber stamp, and foam stickies!

Thanks Bev!

Received my embellishments from Suzi today--man, they're great! -grin-

Thank you so much!

Mailing my package tomorrow to 'pickled cherry'. Had lots of fun picking things out. Hope you like them all. Also got my package from Mammadoo. Thanks for all the fun stuff.

My embellishments are in a packet and ready to go out in the mail on Monday. This is my first time, so please be gentle!

Received my embellishments today and am very pleased. Thank you ???? from Kingston, Ont.

I was very disappointed when I received my swap. I sent out brand new items well worth the value, and I received stuff well under the money limit, and most of it was trashy.

Many apologies, Bev, that I didn't quite live up to your expectations.

I received a lovely parcel in the mail yesterday from Laura. It was so exciting to look at the bits an pieces and wondering what I might use them for. Can someone tell me how I match the real name with the username so that I can leave feedback, please?

Oh no! Bev's comments worry me...Since I am a collage artist I approached the swap from that perspective. I didn't go out and buy all new stuff; I mostly collected items from my diverse stash. I sent many treasured vintage items...my fingers are crossed they sparked my partners creativity & were not recieved as "trashy."

me too creativechange. i don't have much spending money, but i have an overabundance of supplies. i tried to send a variety of different items, some of which were vintage items from my grandmother and great-grandmother. i stuffed one of my large plastic craft bags full of supplies, so i'm hoping my partner enjoys going through all the little bits and pieces.

oh yeah, and i got the package that was sent to me today. i had alot of fun looking at all the neat vintage buttons and other goodies my partner sent. i already have plans for a few of the items.

I got your package Naomi, thank you.

We are into scrapbooking and so I thought I would get things like that. Instead I received pipe cleaners and fortune cookie wrappers.

I enjoyed receiving the package but was not what I thought it would be. Guess next time the swap should be worded differently.

And OwlSong, You'll still be receiving the highest rating (5) from me : )

i received an amazing package today from michele in appleton, wisconsin. lovely, lovely! i loved every little bit and bauble in there and the packaging was adorable. i uploaded a picture to the gallery for all to see. thanks, michele!

ps ... let me know when you get yours, jennifer in south yarmouth, massachusetts! should be any day now!

Holly...you are welcome!! Your generous and lovely comments secured much needed relief for my "first time swapper" jitters-thank you!

Ah, now I understand, Bev. When I get paid next week I'll run out and put together another little package for you, to try to send more of what you were expecting. (No sarcasm or snippiness here--I'm serious. ^_^)

Got my package from Holly today. Awesome stuff in there! Thanx so much!

Marty. did you receive my package? Hope you liked it :)

Nothing yet - Leslie Anne - how do I get in contact with you to see if you are on?

Thanks so much xladyluckx...received your package on Monday! Fun!-this good day

Aww, OwlSong, that means a lot to me. By no means do you need to feel like you 'have' to do this : )

I'm so glad we got everything straightened out!

another wonderful pkg from artitude- thanks a bunch

Leslie Anne - did you send? I so wanted a swap on this one - please do not let me down!

Just wondering if Marti Majino ever got my package, it was mailed July 28th. Also I have no record of receiving my package and do not know who my partner was. Can someone let me know so I can see if she sent it? Thanks Rosalie Ackerson
