Details of swap:For this swap you may either make something that is on your partner’s wists, or make something based on one of their wist items. For Instance, if your partner has many items that include jellyfish, it is perfectly ok to send them a jellyfish themed item. It does not have to be exactly like the one on their wists. (although that is perfectly fine too)
Before you sign up, make sure to go through and edit your wists, taking off things you have already received. Also make sure to mark things YOU want to make, not have made for you, as private.
You must have a Wists.com account to join this swap. You must have a minimum of 70 things in your wists, 50 of them being craftable items. However, the more items you have the better your partner will be able to craft for you. Please restrain from signing up before your wists are full, you have a good 2 weeks to fill and update!
*Important Question* "I use ___ instead of wists, but it works the exact same way. Can I submit this site instead?" I don't see the harm, please PM me your site so I can approve it.
*Be aware of the comments section on wists, someone might add something and you go to make it, but didn’t notice in their comments that they would only want that item in a different color.
We’ll be using the point system for this swap. You’ll have to send your partner at least
5 points worth of items. If you'd like a larger swap you may negotiate that with your partner. Extras and spoilage are perfectly fine.
