Random Envie Swap #1

great idea! I love it :)

I'm a newbie, with a filled out profile - but can't join because it says I don't meet the min requirements, wondering why this is...

Just corrected.. thank you for pointing that out.

Thanks heaps ;)

could you tell us how many items we should aim to send? as theres no set envelope size eithor....?

Thank you @maisymoo for the heads up!

oh this is so great! it is always hard to be away from my family around christmas and this will be a great way to keep my mind off it :) Count me in!

sounds great count me

Love these big juicy swaps,they always feel like Christmas!

What is considered a filled profile for newbies.

Having the different sections of the member profile answered. You know... the favorite movies, books,crafts.. etc.; adding the things that makes you smile and those that aren't; pointers for your partner so that he/she may have an idea on what to send are just some thoughts for a profile. You are welcome to answer those questions that you are comfortable answering with.

Thank you for allowing newbies to join. I'm already coming up with ideas of what to include. :)

um... how do I know who to send to?

My first swap I have set up for the new year of swapping. This is great since I am clearing out all the odds and ends of swap stuff I have to get moving.

NOTE TO ALL! To best not loose a package. Delivery Conformation is the best. If sending overseas or to Canada they have the customs declaration number. So note these for each package and happy swapping. It helps for those swap scammers too.

Can't wait this is my first swap!

ohh lovely!my first swap too! can't wait!

It looks like this will be a great swap! I hope to meet and make long lasting relationship!

maisymoo - In the swap description - it says to send at least 6 items (more if you want or if the items are small - senders choice). It says a legal size envelop - which is a large size envelope. It is just a bit bigger than an 8x11 piece of paper for example. If you don't know what to send - look to see what your partner likes once partner's are assigned

I'm really excited for this! Thanks for allowing newbies!

were there any other suggestions for random items? i just got into foam/ rubber stamps so that would be fun to receive...also friendship sheets...i would not mind sending those...gel pens or flourescent... i need colored memo pads or the tiny post it notes to make FBs too, so i will check.....profile and send extras accordingly....2.40 pm

I would love to join this swap but I cannot have drinks and samples due to so many allergies. Would this be possible to request?

Yay is this the match for the US one? I'd honestly love a variety of fun things. A couple cool black gel pens (the type w the grip would be great); I run out of them as I occasionally write/I use them for school as well.

Light smelling perfume and nothing with red dye/cherry flavored if it's included thanks.

I drink pretty much everything...so coffee/tea/hot chocolate is welcome.

I really need some cute address labels if that's cool...with both addresses if that's cool.

There are sooo many people in this swap!!! doesn´t anyone get afraid of being flaked? Just out of curiosity, i´m still in it :DDDD And very excited for it too!!!

WOW..It's gonna be a super swap..

im thinking maybe some recipe cards----some could be written on (if you really recommend the recipe) and some blank!! :]

i just signed up with this site..WOO! thanks too Creativemind from CO+K. this is going to be fun!

First time ! So i cannot wait ! greetings from Holland !

First timer too! Can't wait!

i cannot wait to start putting together my envie for my partner!! i LOVE filling random envies of goodness!!!

very excited about this swap! super one to follow christmas!

What is the expected size of envelope? It says legal size which is 4" x 9" here in California. In the comments it indicates bigger than the 8 x 11, which I assume is the 9" x 12" manila. There is a big difference and I wouldn't want to send a legal business size if someone was expecting a Large manila. Thanks! = )

(: this looks like its to be fun. will actually sign up rather than watch it now. happy swapping guys..and please no flakers? i hate being flaked on. xx

how big is legal size of envelope? I had the same question as well in mind.

I'm wondering about the envelope size, as well. My box of the 4"x9" envelope calls them "legal/ business size". My package of the 9"x12" envelopes says "manila clasp envelopes". Hopefully this can be sorted out soon. I would hate not to send the correct thing and disappoint my partner!

It'll be fun having something to look forward to after Christmas!

from my understanding...for those of you who have posted with questions on how big the envelope is, it's the 9"x12" sized envelopes that the swap coordinator is recommending in sending.

Hi! I am new at this. Do we pick a partner or send to any person on the list?

Hello Fellow Swappers,

I just want to clear some of your questions.

The legal size of an envelope is 4"x9", and that's the minimum size of envelope to use for the swap. Opting for a bigger envelope can mean that you have an item that's bigger than the legal size envelope. For example.. scrapbook paper, or 5" x 7" postcards.

Oh, and this swap is basically a light one in terms of weight. You have the choice to make it stuffed and big for your partner, but don't expect to receive exactly the same.

If you have any more concerns or things that I should correct, feel free to send me a PM.

@amtran .. After the signup date, partners will then be assigned.. then you will see on the Swap Member Options (which is on the right yellow box) a link that says "See the partners you send to"

That's how you will know whom to send to.

Have fun! :D

Hello:) I'm join~ this swap so great!!

is it senders choice not a profile swap?

@reauk . It's senders choice basically, but I mentioned to consider your partner's wishes.

I am a brand new shiny newbie and looking forward to proving I can be a good partner.

same as angelbear! :)

I logging in for the coordinator.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone, I think I hear a drumroll..lol

Looking forward to swapping soon!

I'm new here and just wanted to know where the partners are going to be assigned. Thanks!!

looking forward to this swap

I'll be sending out my package to my swap partner this weekend!

COORDINATOR : please click here when reviewing your participants

Please don't forget to RATE your partner for the swap.

Never received my package, or heard back from my partner despite sending messages. Very sad :(

@citty I emailed your partner today. Hoping that she will reply.
