Share Your Stash! (USA ONLY!)

Could you please explain what a "flat rate" envelope is?

Is it the standard white envelope that a 41 cent stamp goes on, or is there some other envelope you're referring to?

I wish I could sign up for this one, but I am a newbie. I have a craft stash coming out of my ears! I need my dining room back and can't get to it through my craft supplies.

sindylee ~ Well, the sign-up date is a ways off yet. Maybe you'll have some ratings by then and can sign up after all! :)

I'd love to join if this swap was open to international swappers. :(

i totally would love to see an international version of this swap

I'm excited about this swap! I am also willing to be an angel for this swap if someone ends up empty handed (although no one should be!).

I LOVE to swap stashes (or rather, samples of stashes)! Yay! It'll be like Christmas for me! :)

Is this only for craft items basically or can we send other things as well?

I had the same question, Craftygirl...

I really wish I could stay in this swap, but I need to cut back because I've got too many things on my plate right now. If you make this swap again please be sure to PM or comment me to let me know. Sorry for the drop, it's a great swap, I just can't be in so many right now.

Sorry for my delay in replying to some of you here. I was away on vacation for 3 weeks. Now to answer your questions:

keymistress & AndreaSmondria ~ Unfortunately, the international flatrate service has changed and is also quite a bit more expensive to send than within the USA. I totally would LOVE to make this swap international, as I adore receiving such different things, but sadly, with Christmas and holidays rapidly approaching, I think the expense would be too much for some of us. :( If you would like to make an international swap using this idea, please feel free to do so! :)

fluxions ~ That is SO sweet of you to offer to angel! Hopefully, that won't be necessary, though! I am glad you are excited... so am I! :)

snarglebean ~ I know EXACTLY what you mean! ;oP I am like a kid in a candy store with this type of thing! Hehehe. :D

craftygirl & cat ~ You can send anything that will fit and that your partner might like, however, the majority should be crafty-type stuff, and paper goods. :)

CelestialFreak ~ I totally understand, and if this swap goes well, I may do another one in the near future! :)

What you think about doing is hosting a swap of ATCs created with this stash.

Let me know if you do another of these. Too hectic right now to sign up for this one but would love to play.

I already have my envelope ready and about bursting at the seams!! This will be great fun!!

Can't wait to see my partner.....went and got my envelope today and am ready!!!!!!!!!!!!

My envelope is stuffed to the brim.....just hope it's not too fat for the post office.

Danielle, Your package is packed and ready to go tomorrow! I hope you enjoy!!

I went through all my storage drawers, boxes, bags and shelves and took a little something from every place--what a variety of things I have! I'm always surprised to find things I forgot I even had when I do these stash swaps! It's a good thing, too--saves me from going out and shopping for more! While digging through today, I found enough stuff for three other swap projects at the same time! I'm getting ahead of my own game! LOL brokenfaedoll, thanks for hosting this swap!

susiqz- I got my package last night. Thanks soooo much! Tons of cool stuff to use and I already made a little collage out of some of it. HotCakes

SWAN - Your package went out in the mail today! ~ Dee

My package went out today to imneverbored. Unfortunately, I was unable to use a flat rate envelope...it wouldn't hold everything. So...I used a USPS Shoe Box. I also found stuff for other swaps while I was "gathering" from my stash. I sent some of my very favorite things. I need to do more of these so I can reduce my overflow. I am completely out of room, but this was a good start. Ping me if there is another one!

Bummer, I've still not received...

but I'm excited and patiently waiting :)

MicheleoneL - The final SEND BY date is the 13th, so you do need to be patient.

Hope my package to WeeBees arrived all right. The envelope was over stuffed, and the post office took it but said "no tape" next time. . .

KD - I just messaged you on your package...
