We’ll be sending:
-A small hand crafted item
-A treat (candy, tea, stickers, etc)
-A personal card/note.
-Extras are not required to keep it as simple and easy as possible but of course you can negotiate with your partner .

Since this is a small swap with many flat options, I’m requesting flexibility with international partnering to keep the swap open to everybody. Please don’t be daunted by this, it’s still reasonably affordable to send an oversized envelope overseas. It may take a few days to arrive but sharing encouragement with each other is so worth it :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I am so down for this swap!

I’m thinking about this one if I can come up with some affirmations. :slight_smile:

Tempting! I’ll probably end up throwing my hat in the ring as it’s such a low-stress swap.

I saw an affirmation on FB today and screenshot it just in case. @Magpie thank you for doing this again! I really have no idea how round 3 showed up when I was poking around earlier. Noticed the swap was old after I posted. I’m happy you chose to run it again. I’m in! Now to start on the questionnaire.

Lots of past swappers had affirmation pin boards full of great stuff for inspiration, I’ll link mine tomorrow. I like the really positive ones but also get a kick out of snarky sweary stuff.

Here’s a link to my Positive AF board. Feel free to add yours for inspiration for others!
Mine is very positive but I know Ms @curiousfae has one full of sass. Fun stuff!

Welcome to the swap, friends! I will be travelling over the weekend so will update new participants next week.

Calling all y’all from past swaps, I hope you’ll jump in and make some good vibes together again this year!

Some of us live oceans apart or are busy with back-to-school, new jobs, or even moving. I get it, I am absolutely piled up with work too. But this one can be really quick and easy, and it’s so good being able to take a moment out to craft something nice and read through affirmations, such an uplifting diversion from the blahs.

This is just for 1 small item, an hour or two of crafting. It can be flat like a 4X6 piece of art, ATCs, a little patch, etc. You may even already have something in your stash that would work perfectly with a positive affirmation added to it!

(((hugs))) to you, my busy friends :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I appreciate the tag but I am trying to fill my own cup a bit at the moment! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Thanks for the list of ideas…. I always get stuck in the planning phase!

I came across a good one yesterday, it could be a bit shame inducing depending on what the “this” is but a good motivator in any case.
“In a year, you’ll wish you’d started this today.”

It is ambiguous enough to apply in so many ways…and positive as well!

In a year, I’ll wish I had started swimming today…so maybe it is time to go join the YMCA now! ha

Or maybe learn how to be patient with others…so many things!

I also saw a wonderful word that described a woman…Largess…she made the world notice her…she was indeed largess! I want to be known as largess!!

How can I resist? I love this swap, and it’s international-postage-friendly if we keep it flat and papery :snail: :love_letter:
