Swap categories: Random Items  Food  Miscellaneous 
Number of people in swap:21

Type:Type 3: Package or craft
Last day to signup/drop:January 22, 2010

Number of swap partners:1
Description:

I have seen some amazing bags made out of recyclable items when grocery shopping. I however am not talented enough (yet) to figure out how to make one.

In this swap those of you who can and do make these are welcome to trade them. For those who are like me you can go to a local store that sells the reusable ones or you can by a canvas bag kit and embellish/decorate it and swap that. The only thing I ask is that nobody sends a walmart bag.

The +1 is where you tailor this swap to your partner's likes. You will include something from the grocery store along with this bag. It can be something like a candy bar, a box of jello or fruit roll ups. If there is something specific you would like to receive please leave it in the comment section below. For the spending limit on the +1 item I am placing a $5 (US) max. That does not mean your partner needs to spend $5 it just means no more then $5 is required.

Everyone will have one partner and this is international as these do not weight hardly anything and can be folded up very small.

Newbies are welcome (we were all new once) but you must complete your profile prior to signing up. You must have an impeccable record or a good argument as I do not tolerate flakers at all! I will kick you out of this swap if your history is dodgy.

If I could get a bag from Piggly Wiggly, that's all the + I'd need! I've loved the name since I saw it in driving Miss Daisy!

If possible, I'd like some PEZ or a craft magazine for my +1 :)) Thanks in advance!

Can I join pretty please? I'm a newbie and this will be my very 1st swap if i'm allowed. If i'm allowed, could I please make my +1 a sewing or quilting magazine as i'm not sure on the logistics for sending chocolate or candy into Australia via mail.

I am a newbie and was just thinking this would be a fun swap to host one day--then I found yours! I have a reusable bag addiction.

This is an awesome swap! hope there are more to come, you can never have enough of these bags! and i like the idea for the + to be a craft magazine! - card crafts or crochet would be my favorites!

Hi Everyone,

I'll be getting my little package ready over the weekend and then sending off soon after :o)

I just realised I needed to click the "sent" tab, so it says sent on Feb 9, but I sent yesterday. And I forgot to put my username on my package, so if you get one from "Rose" that's me!

Has anyone got theirs yet?
