DETAILS OF SWAP:For this swap, you will make
ONE (absolutely no extras, please) tiny thing for your secret pal. Partners will be assigned randomly (no favouritism here!) and done in secrecy (you will need to come up with a super secretive alias

).
In order to figure out what your secret pal would like, feel free to check out his/her Craftster posts, pinterest, blog, and so forth. If you have specific questions for your secret pal (example: what’s his/her ring size?), you may send them to me and I will try to get answers for you. Based on your findings, you can then craft something phenomenal for your secret pal.
The OTT should be something that you can craft with a high level of skill. This tiny thing may be made with any material, and the completed item should measure 4” by 4” or smaller.
Since you’ll only be crafting and sending one small item, please make every effort to ensure that that you’re making something spectacular that you’ll be proud to receive…something awesome that you know your partner will adore!
Need more examples of things which qualify as ONE tiny item?A pair of earrings - YES!
A necklace - YES!
A pair of earrings AND necklace set – NO!
An ornament - YES!
A set of stitch markers – YES!
A mini notebook – YES!
A set of mini notebooks – NO!

Note: If you’re trying to determine if your idea qualifies as a tiny thing, ask your friendly swap organizer (oh wait, that’s me
). Other housekeeping details and what-nots…1. I reserve the right to refuse anyone who has a history of multiple instances of poor communication and/or late sending.
2. Please make at least one post on this thread so I know that you’re getting all messages in the swap thread!
3. Check the swap thread regularly. Feel free to discuss your OTT and post teasers about what you’re working on. It’ll be fun to keep everyone guessing!
4. Communication is essential! If you’re having issues with the swap, or if you’re sending late (for whatever reasons), you must contact the organizer. Poor communication will be noted in your feedback
