Description:

I really enjoy kawaii swaps but often they're expensive or they ask far too many items. So I thought to host an easy and cheap one myself!

Let's DECORATE an envelope with kawaii stickers and images, then let's fill it with:

  • 10 sticker flakes
  • 5 mini memos
  • 5 large memos
  • 1 letterset (1 envelope + 2 sheets)
  • 1 flat little surprise (more memos, more flakes or other stickers and sticker sheets, an envie or a mini letterset, a charm, a bookmark...).

This is sender's choice as we don't have all the same stash of items and carachters.

Please be sure to send only good quality and cute items! And have fun! That's the most important.

No newbies for this round but if everything will go smoothlyl I'll host another newbie-friendly one.

Happy Swapping!

What would you consider a newbie? I know I am a newbie, but people say no newbies, and never post what a newbie is. Is there a certain rating you have to have? Or a certain amount of swaps you've done? :)

vintervila 07/26/2010 #

Hello! Well, actually what I consider a newbie is someone who doesn't have any rated swap done yet. I usually don't like hosting swaps that newbies cannot join but experience sadly taught me that I must be more careful than when I joined this site 3 years ago! I am sorry. but If ever you'll be rated for a couple of swaps before the swap deadline, I'll gladly let you in.

As I got this question via pm, here is what I mean by "mini" and "large":

mini/small: 2.2'x3'

large/medium: 4'x6'

UGH where I live I cant find ANY Kawaii stuff, but its awesome to me, and I love it. I just cant find anything! If anyone wants to angel me some (of course not everything on the list), I could send something else, not kawaii in return if they want, PLEASE pm me, I want some kawaii stuff SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad!!!! I ordered some online but am running low on cash. Thanks ^_^

vintervila 07/29/2010 #

@conniebobear just go in the forums and post something in the one-on-one trades section so that you can set up a parivate swap with someone willing to send you kawaii in exchange of something else.

Oh, okay. Thanks for the info. :)

Question: May we fold the letter set to fit in it's envelope so it will all fit in a smaller mailing envelope? I thought I'd ask as some people seem to be picky about folds in letter sets... Personally, I don't mind if it's only in half or into thirds. Thanks!

vintervila 08/ 5/2010 #

@tiggerkitn25 : Like you, I personally don't mind if the letterset is folded into its envelope. I had thought to do the same but maybe the best is to contact your partner when it will be assigned to you. But I guess that, as the letterset sheets will be folded sooner or later, it shouldn't be a big deal!

paflip25 08/ 5/2010 #

Some people, like me, collect the letter sets and don't ever use them, so that is why we only want unfolded letter sets.

tiggerkitn25 08/ 5/2010 #

Okay, I'll PM my partner when they get assigned and ask. Thanks!

Hello :) I read all the comments and I know that you are cautious about letting new people join - but even though I am a newbie on Swap-Bot I have done several swaps on Flickr before and I run a kawaii business on Etsy where you can check all of my positive feedback. I was wondering if you would consider letting me join. :D

vintervila 08/ 6/2010 #

@paflip25 and @tiggerkitn25 - I guess communication is the key, as always! ;)

@j2fish Well, I do believe you, but rules should apply to everyone. If ever, before the signup deadline, you'l remain the only newbie asking to join, I might consider that. If other newbies will ask, I will probably have to say no to all and perhaps host a newbie friendly one soon.

j2fish 08/ 6/2010 #

okay! sounds fair enough ^^

sebastian122 08/ 6/2010 #

So...this isn't for name brand kawaii items. Correct?

vintervila 08/ 7/2010 #

@sebastian122 what do you mean? I guess we all know what kawaii mean in such swaps - japanese/asian cute images and carachters. I trust everyone to be always sure to send something beautiful that they'd love to recieve themselves, but if you have items that aren't Sanrio, Crux, Q-Lia, San-X, etc, but are supercute and Kawaii, well, it's ok.

sebastian122 08/ 7/2010 #

You have answered my question. Thanks.
