Description:

This is a US swap.

1 partner, 1 lovely, profile-related, handmade (ideally by you but craft fair items are acceptable) gift to them. This is a one item swap and the craft show/etsy value should be $15+.

Swappers - please be sure to have ideas, colors, sizes, preferences on your profile, listed below in the swap comments or an etsy wishlist that your sender can get ideas from. Or just pm your partner with a request for info on preferences, sizes, etc.

Your gift should be wrapped with a note/card from you to your sender. Send a most awesome gift. No food/tea/candy items or anything that will expire before 2026.

Best bet is to use a small flat rate box or priority bubble envelope - both cost about $10-$11 to mail. Or a very small box, whichever is the cheapest postage:)

Ideas? Scour your partner's profiles for ideas but some that come to mind. This gift should be profiled based - I've listed some ideas for me in the swap comments.

  • Handmade aprons, tea towels, oven mitts, placemats, napkins
  • Crochet or knit hats, gloves, scarves, shawls, sweaters, market bags, or other useful items
  • Handmade soaps or candles (okay if made by someone else as long as it is handmade and not commercially produced)
  • Create a DIY craft kit for your partner
  • Dolls, stuffies, amigurumis or other toys
  • Ceramics - cups, mugs, bowls, ringholders (okay if made by someone else as long as it is handmade and not commercially produced)
  • Completed junk or magpie journals
  • Filled jar pincushions, filled needle books or sewing jars
  • Filled mason jars or fabric stockings - storebought fillers okay if nothing expires before mid 2026
  • Craft supplies in a nice package - yarn, washi, postage stamps (this count as a DIY lol, but you have to wrap em nicely:)

Please wrap and enclose a note/card to your partner. If you are on IG, post a pic with the hashtag CPGSWAP.
