DETAILS OF SWAP:
This is a "Home Decour" swap, where we swap things for the dorm or house.  It was originally intended for those in college dorms to spruce up their rooms, but why leave out anybody in the fun?  So here we can swap things like pillowcovers, posters, mobiles, paperweights---stuff like that. 

Other things to swap:
-Bath Products Accessories (Soaps, washcloths)
-Organizational Things (Pencil Holder, Folders)
-Decorations (Wall Posters, Frames)
-Pillows, Stuffed Animals

ok...i'm am going to Houston for 1 month and i will be back on or around June 23rd...will it be ok for me to sign up for this swap though i wouldn't be very active on this board for a month? thanks!

[paradisecrane]

oh of course! as long as you send out on time!

[ParanoidEv]

This is a great idea, because I will be moving out before the end of this year and the stuff I have so far is really.. boring and plain, I could use some nice crafted items!

[dooney]

I signed up. This is my first swap, but I've read the Newbie Swap post.
I picked this one because my husband and I are moving out of our crappy downtown apartment with stupid rules, to a much nicer, better location apartment that we get to decorate with whatever.

[solidknapp]

signed up, and can't wait!

[acesulfamek]

I am looking forward to this swap.  I think it is going to be a lot of fun. 

I keep coming up with all different things that I can't wait to make!  I'm going to have to start writing them down so I don't forget by the time I get my partner's info next month...

[Petunia0384]

Yay, this is going to be a fun one!

[paradisecrane]

We've got 10 people so far! Yay!
