Crafty Cleanup

I can not be the only person that has a craft room or area that needs improvement (or a complete overhaul if we are honest here lol), whether its a deep clean, a supplies purge, just some good organization, or all the above. So I am creating this swap to help make us all a bit more accountable in getting this cleaning/organizing done!

This will be a 2 part swap that will last about a month.

PART 1 (THE PLAN / BEFORE) - During week 1 of the swap send your 3 partners an email with at least 3 pictures showing the BEFORE of your craft area/room. PLEASE SEND ON OR BEFORE JUNE 23RD. Tell them what tasks you hope to accomplish in your area...what things are most important that NEED to get done versus what are some things that would be nice to get done? Please be somewhat specific such as "i want to organize my 6x6 paper and scraps" or "go through my giant stamp collection and catalogue it" instead of just a blanket "I hope to clean my room".

PART 1A (HALFWAY DONE) - Feel free to send your partners a midway done email letting them know how you are coming along on your list so far. THIS EMAIL IS OPTIONAL.

PART 2 (DONE / AFTER) - Before the send by date (or when you are done your to-do list if you finish before that) please send your final email to your partners. This final email needs to include what you did get accomplished, what you didn't get to do, and at least 3 AFTER pictures of your craft area/room.

If you send your final email before the last day that means your list is done....congratulations! If you send your final email at the end but are not quite done, that is still ok too! I personally do not know that my craft area will ever be "finished" lol.

A part of the requirements of this swap are to send your emails ON TIME and to rate in a TIMELY FASHION (ie not 3 weeks after they sent their last email). I know life happens but please do not make your partners have to track you down trying to get an email or a rating from you. If I find that happening you will be removed from all my future swaps.

PART 1 & PART 2 EMAILS MUST BE SENT IN ORDER TO RECEIVE A 5. ONLY PART 1A EMAIL IS OPTIONAL!

When emailing please be sure to BCC in your partners...please do not just stick them all in the "to" field on your email.

Feel free to start this cleanup before partners are assigned to give yourself some extra time IF YOU WANT. Just be sure to make your to-do list AND take your pictures beforehand to send your list to your partners once they are assigned.
