STS (Shop the Swap) 2025 Fall Market Discussion

I just make things I like and hope for the best. Sometimes things don’t do well and that’s ok. I made a bunch of pet bow ties last year that weren’t popular, but they were easy to gift out to people with dogs. It’s nice that it’s right before the holidays.

I only like making things of my choosing which is why I can’t really handle other swaps including personal. :slightly_frowning_face: I hate being told what to do! lol

Personally I love ceramics and art and all the other things, but I never did stamps until @irid3sc3nt offered some hand-carved ones and now I have lots of stamps and have carved many myself.

I love that people are offering things they love and have happily claimed many items I never would have thought to ask for.

I think shipping may be a bit more frustrating this year as USPS is struggling since they’ve been systematically hamstrung.

Remember to budget shipping for your items and start hoarding boxes and other mailing holders that you receive :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Ughhhh I’m really afraid that our fearless leader will somehow decide Hawai’i is a foreign country as far as shipping is concerned or something. I love USPS and if it goes away, we’re all in big trouble. :confused:

This is true. I send cards in the mail every month, if only just for birthdays. A private company owning USPS would undoubtedly make it cost-prohibitive.

That’s about where I’d end up.

I’m thinking these card sets will be for STS, but we’ll see.
