Hello fellow kawaii lovers! If you like kawaii swaps but are not too keen on receiving random kawaii brands then this is the swap for you! Anything goes in this swap but you must remember only to include Sanrio and San-x items. You can do a quick search on the internet to find out whether a character is part of the Sanrio/San-x universe.

Each of us will have one partner to send a 50g package to. You can choose to send more but 50g is all that is required.

The only items that are mandatory are:

  • At least one, 2-3 USD brand new non-stationery item (ex. Small pouch, lip balm, keychain, pins, squishy, band-aids, magnet, coaster, etc.) A combination of 2 items is okay!

  • A 2-page WRITTEN letter using Sanrio/San-x letter set with matching envelope. (Please refer to talking points below for this)

  • At least 4 different large memo sheets

  • At least 4 different mini memo sheets

The rest depends on you! You can choose not to include extras if you have already reached 50g with the mandatory items. If you havenโ€™t reached 50g, here are some items that you can include: sticker flakes, sticker sheet, postcard, extra memos, mini envelopes, blank letter sets, sticky notes, washi samples (at least 15-inches per type), etc. Remember, extras should be Sanrio/San-x as well!

On your 2-page letter, please write about your love for Japan or Kawaii! Here are some talking points that may help you out with your letter:

  • Have you ever visited Japan? Do you plan on visiting Japan?

  • Who is your current favorite kawaii character?

  • What was your latest kawaii purchase?

  • Where do you purchase kawaii items?

  • Whatโ€™s your favorite kawaii item that you own?

Feel free to talk about anything else Japan and kawaii related!

Other friendly reminders:

  • Please remember to send only Original/Licensed Sanrio and San-x items. No DIY items allowed.

  • We all want to send cute extras that are not Sanrio/San-x but please reserve them for a different kawaii swap.

  • This is NOT a destash swap. Please do not send items that you yourself do not want to receive.

  • Please decorate the envelope kawaii-style as well. This is not required but it would be most appreciated!๐Ÿ’•

  • Please give a 5 if you receive all the mandatory items even if you are not fond of the character/s on the item. All extras should be Sanrio/San-x as well. Itโ€™s your call re: the rating if a different kawaii character accidentally is included in your package.

  • Please don't give a 1 or 3 unless you have spoken with your partner/s.

  • Please please please be generous with ratings and hearts!

Rating requirements:

For this swap, an automatic rating filter of 4.98 will be used (no 1's and 3's in the last 6 months or all must be resolved). Sorry, newbies cannot join this swap. You must have at least 20 total type 2 and 3 swaps to join. I will be strict in checking profiles since there are a lot of flakers in Kawaii swaps.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions! Send me a message so I can get back to you quicker โœจ

Happy swapping!โ˜บ๏ธ

Dear @angdiane

I think you are being very flexible with "newbies"here.

Indeed, there are a LOT of flakers in kawaii swaps. I've been flaked on half of the kawaii swaps I participated to. Most of the flakers had already 10-15 completed swaps.

I was wondering if you were willing to raise the minimum ratings to 20-30 type 2-3 swaps, to avoid unpleasant situations.

If not, do you engage yourself in angelling for all of the participants who will get flaked on ? This would be ca bit more secure for the long-term swappers.

@ileimgrubber thank you so much for you suggestion! I just raised the rating requirement to 20 swaps, considering the person who already joined :)

Iโ€™m sorry, I wonโ€™t be able to angel this swap so Iโ€™m raising requirements.
