Janets Sticker Swap

23 years ago

Hi Everyone,

We only have six people that have replied to the sticker swap. We need lots more people for it to be a sucess. I thought I would go ahead and post the information here and then if you are interested email me and I will send you my address. If you think I should add another week or so let me know.

Tell everyone you know and if you belong to another forum please let them know. THanks Ok here are the details of my swap.

Mail your stickers to me by Oct 27th!!!

I will mail the returns out on Nov. 1st. This allows me time to do all the swapping.

You may send any assortment of stickers that are ACID FREE. I will try and swap out your stickers for new ones. You may send a wish list that is detailed. Penny said it helped when the list was detailed.

So, please make it detailed and you will be much happier. I will do my best to match you up with goodies but remember this is not a promise!! It really depends on the variety that is sent.

NO sheets with stickers missing unless you just want to give them to me! You will get back the same amount of stickers that you send me but different. Please do not send more than 5 of the same sticker modules. This will help get a variety. Plus tell all your swapper buddies. The more people we get the more selection there will be

to swap with. All sticker sizes accepted and traded out as long as I receive some of the same size. If not I will mail yours back to only be fair. Unless you tell me that its okay to receive some small. For example, 3 or 4 small to one big one.

Send a self address envelope WITH CORRECT POSTAGE that is big enough to get your stickers in. If you are not sure put an extra stamp to be sure. If you are sending big modules please make sure your self address envelope is big enough for me to send big ones back to you. Folding them ruins stickers so I will not do this.

Also write on the back of your envelope sticker swap so I can keep it organized from other swap things I get.

Remember no promises but I will do my best. The more details you give me the better off it will be.

My email address is Mommyto2@lycos.com or post here and I will get it.

Janet,
I've never done a sticker swap but am interested in doing this one. Your guidelines appear to be clear. I'll be looking for your address in the coming days.
Thanks for the opportunity to try a sticker swap!

Ideas from a brainstorming newbie (who had THE most amazing time at the swap!!)--- I know that I found out about the swap here on gardenweb, and had read everything that was posted. Despite this, and much prep work, I still was a little "scattered" (I'm an artist, this is typical) about where to put my pre-arranged trades vs my freebies & how to get the trades to the people they were due to. I really did like that the plants available were near the person who could tell me things -- great to meet them and to learn, because I surely don't know what a "hyputeria oblingata" is, label or not.... (okay, I made that name up) Since there were at least several, if not lots, of people that I didn't have nametags with screen names on them (or didn't have tags at all) I'm guessing that some people find out from friends and not necessarily from here (??). If this is the case, it's not surprising that some things innocently walk away, because if one hadn't read all the bits here, they really wouldn't know the ropes at all...In that situation I wouldn't have even thought to look for reserved tags myself, and if I had, I wouldn't have known what "kilngod" referred to... anyway... We could have a simple paper version of the "things to know about the swap" that was posted and hand this out to people as they arrive? (or have it at a central front location) I'd be happy to paint a sign or anything like that if it would be helpful.... I never did figure out if I was supposed to sign in somewhere or not. Even with my studying, I still managed to miss something.... Next time I might make laminated signs to indicate "these are for specific people" and "free for the taking" areas for my plants. I didn't have anything like that, and the traders that did made it much easier for me when I was browsing. And those that put all the plants for one person into a bag, stapled a big tag over it (so that bag couldn't just be opened and perused) with "for so-and-so" in huge letters --brilliant!! I'm doing that next time too! --Tina (kilngod)

I'm still trying to get in touch with Jennifer Roberts from Canada. I was involved in a sticker swap with her and between my granddaughter and I we sent her 80 stickers and have received nothing in return. We mailed our stickers the second week in July. This was my first bad swap and my granddaughter's first swap! She looks for her stickers every day. I would appreciate any information anyone might have. Thanks Carolyn

I would love to join your sticker swap. Could you send your address as soon as possible because I live in Canada as well and it takes 4-5 days longer to get to you sometimes. Thanks
