STS (Shop the Swap) 2025 Fall Market Discussion

Yay! I’m so glad you like them. I’ll have a few more book related ornaments coming up once I get them finished (the item that I’m most excited to finish and offer is a LettuceCraft bookish ornament). The only thing is that I have not received your claim message yet…

Did you end up making more pumpkin clothespin people? I’m looking forward to seeing them!

I am anxiously awaiting the opening of @Tapestry & @saintcady’s shops since they each have an item I’d love to have!

My shop is now open! I was trying to get my last two items prepped but just decided to open anyway.

I was so particular making sure I wrote everything correctly that I left you out. LOL! Goodness. I added you. Thanks for the heads up.

I did make 5 more pumpkin people. :jack_o_lantern:

Yay! I can’t wait to see them!

I just made my first ever STS claim from @Tapestry! That blue moth is what originally got me thinking about joining this swap.

I’m so glad that little moth is headed to a good home! I would not have predicted one of the moths as going first (though I really like them and want to do more paper mache pieces if there’s time).

Thank you for being my first claim!

Yay! I’m so glad you got it. This swap is kind of like an auction in that you feel like you need to hustle and claim the items you really want!

That’s the whole reason I got my shop open and ready as soon as the swap opened :grin:.

It was parent teacher conferences last night for us. I had unfortunate dreams so I was really tired this morning.

I have a question: why is it when I hit the return/enter key, this auto formats as double spaced? It is already driving me nuts with the claim section.

See? I didn’t put that space between the previous and this :up_arrow:

I had that problem too and then clicked this icon at the top left:

Then it went back to normal.

Shift enter works too!

I finished a few more items and was hoping to get my shop open today, but work was busy and now the lighting is not good for photos. I will have it open tomorrow afternoon (PST)!

Tonight I’m focusing on finishing this stuff:

p.s. I want to get it open because there are so many great things I want to claim!

I know! I think I could spend 10 points right off the bat, instead of the 5 I’ll start with…
I need to get busy & open~
Loving the fun new shops!
