OPTIONS: (Please Read Carefully)

Option 1:

You Can Hand-Craft All Seven Gifts Yourself

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Option 2:

You Can Hand-craft 5 of the Gifts yourself and purchase or re-gift 2 quality hand-crafted gifts from another crafter, but YOU MUST give the other crafters credit.

You can buy from places such as Etsy; Swap-Bot; Craft Fairs etc., but NOT from Garage Sales or Thrift Stores) Re-gifting is allowed as sometimes we get something in Swaps that is absolutely awesome, but is often not what we collect.

These items must match your Swap Partner's Pinterest Board Gifts to receive!!

ABSOLUTELY NO STORE BOUGHT MASS MANUFACTURED GIFTS. No old looking gifts unless they are made to look that way and no gifts with odors. They must be in original condition or you can not re-gift them.

Be versatile and Pin different types of arts and crafts to your Pinterest Boards. The following link will give you an outline of the different types of crafts you can pin to your boards.

Types of Arts & Crafts

*Everyone please understand that the examples we pinned in Pinterest are just that. They are examples of the type of artwork we like. Not all of this work can be duplicated due to copyright law, but we can create something similar if we know what you like. If you like mixed media pin it; if you like collage, pin it; If you like quilting pin it; if you like crochet pin it; folk art pin it; etc.

*If you do not pin different types of arts and crafts you may get a partner who is faced with having to do their own thing just to complete the swap.

Have Fun and DO NOT FLAKE!
