Details of swap:
This is an adult themed alcohol swap. Everyone will be swapping one medium and three small. You may not swap anything that is alcoholic (it’s not legal to ship and you never can be sure of someone’s age through the net). You may swap alcohol and bar related items. I will do my best to pair everyone up by similar tastes in beverages. Be sure to communicate regularly with your partner and in the swap thread, the more info you give the more your partner will have to craft something you will really love. And don’t forget to post pictures in the gallery! Take pics before you send just incase your partner can’t, and if you know you wont be able to take pictures of what you receive make arrangements for your partner to take pics. Also remember to PM me and your partner when you send and receive and I will be requiring delivery confirmation for this swap so share the DC # when you send.

Recap:
Craft 1 medium and 3 small (medium = 2+ hours of crafting or valued at $10-$30 , small = 2 or less hours of crafting or worth less than $10)
Communicate with your partner and in the swap thread
The more info you give your partner the better
Take pictures for posting in the gallery
Get a delivery confirmation number and PM me and your partner when you send and receive
Have fun, and drink responsibly

[quilted]

This sounds like a lot of fun! I'm not a big drinker, but I like the accoutrements 

[shezcrafty]

This one is pretty tempting, I have to say...

[MaxParadise]

this one is very tempting....i may just have to join!

[kartiana]

I forgot about delivery confirmation.... This just added to swap details: "Also remember to PM me and your partner when you send and receive and I will be requiring delivery confirmation for this swap so share the DC # when you send."

Quilted, thanks for signing up! I'm just trying to fix a little mishap before the swap will show up in your profile.

[kartiana]

We have four participants! yay!!! (This is my first time organizing so its exciting for me).

I have added everyone to the list, but the swap wont show up in your profile until I can fix a small problem (I feel stupid for this). Once it is fixed I will make sure to add everyone to the swap and I will post in here so everyone can double check so no one gets missed.

mmmm...anyone interested in some beer cap jewelry?
