Description:

Do you have a crafty or creative business? Do you like supporting other crafty businesspeople? Get the word out with a super-easy swap, and find out about new places to shop, too!

You'll have five partners, and all you have to do is send one business card to each partner. That's it. ;D

Optional elements! If you feel like it, and have extra time or energy, you could include one or more of the following:

  • A letter telling your partners about what you make or sell, and how you got into doing it. Feel free to include stories of your trials and tribulations getting started, etc. ;)
  • A coupon or coupon code for your store
  • A sample of something you make or sell

And if you're a crafty businessperson who loves to trade with other crafters, leave a note in the comments below with what you make/sell and are willing to trade -- I'll make a list and send it out to the other people on the list, to facilitate happy trading. :D

Go, go, crafty business owners!

I'll start the trade list. Hopefully someone else will be interested, too. ;)

What I'm willing to trade: jewelry, handspun yarn, spinning fiber, fabric, knit objects, sewn objects, and altered art supplies. I love custom orders. :D

I'd most like to trade for: spinning fiber, dyes, any fiber-related equipment I don't have, yarn, glass or gemstone beads, metal wire (sterling silver, Argentium silver, gold-filled, niobium, and sometimes copper :D), summery clothing, and alcohol-free fragrances. If you make something else and want to trade, feel free to make an offer! :D

I would love to trade with someone.

I make: pirate sock monkeys (complete with eye patches, wooden peg legs and hoop earrings), zombie sock monkeys, regular sock monkeys, socktopi, quilted blank notecards, messenger bags, quilted fabric-covered notebooks/journals, crocheted hats and scarves. I would love to make something to fit your color/fabric preferences.

Things I would like to trade for: screen printed anything (especially if it's art or liberal politics related), chunky necklaces, earrings, journals, blank notecards, handspun yarn, etc. I love making connections with other crafty people, so I'm really open to a lot of other things not on this list.

I sent out 4 of my cards on Thursday, but the last one only today, so I was a bit late on that last package! My apologies.

nellbe: Got it today! What a cool idea. (Oops... Didn't mean that pun.) I think you should market to adults, too, as I have Raynauld's Syndrome, which makes holding any cold thing painful. I'll get good use from your BottleSox!
