Hello! This is the first swap I've created for this group (or any group!). If you love New York City, it should be a fun one! Following the guidelines below, send your partner a minimum of 5 items with a "New York" theme. The possibilities for inspiration are endless: there's the Statue of Liberty; the Twin Towers; Broadway; the Empire State Building; the Chrysler Building; Central Park; Strawberry Fields; the Dakota Apartments; the Metropolitan Museum of Art; the Plaza Hotel; "Eloise"; Brooklyn; the Brooklyn Bridge; Coney Island; Rockefeller Center; the Chelsea Hotel; Grand Central terminal; 34th Street/Macy's; Times Square; the East Village; Katz's; bagels; black and white cookies; taxis; skyscrapers; subways; Tiffany & Co.; "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and MANY other stories, movies, and songs; Ellis Island; etc. Items you send could depict (or just symbolize) any of the above or anything else that will give your partner a taste of New York City -- and could include: note cards; postcards; stickers; washi tape; jewelry; ATC's or other handmade items; books or DVDs; bookmarks; charms; tote bags; vintage items; art deco themed items; items with an apple (for "Big Apple"), etc. Use your imagination! Here are the basic guidelines: -At least 5 items, sent in a minimum sandwich-sized ziplock (or other bag that meets group guidelines). -Maximum 2 handmade items, and 2 flat paper items (stickers and washi tape don't count as flat paper items; postcards and note cards do). -Sender's choice, but please look at your partner's profile! -Please do not include edible and/or cosmetic items without PM'ing your partner and/or checking your partner's profile. If you do include edible and/or cosmetic items (after getting the "okay" from your partner!) please also remember to check for allergies and expiration dates. -No torn, dirty, smelly, or otherwise junky items. -Newbies welcome with well-filled out profiles. For rated swappers: minimum rating 4.97. No unresolved 1's or excessive 3's. I reserve the right to ban anybody who I think might cause issues with the swap. I'll angel if necessary (after you rate your partner with a '1') but please don't flake. Thanks for joining and I hope you'll have fun with this swap! Feel free to ask me if you have any questions, either via PM or in the comments below. :-) |
