Anyone interested in doing a craft box round robin? I am still finding things to out in it. So far lots of jewelry pieces some complete. Pretty hair flowers (I make them and have too many) red sculpy clay. I can include garden seed and still planning on more goodies. Think I can easliy fill a medium flat rate box. Please have plenty to swap if you sign up. The idea is to keep the box full for then next person. It will be on a first come first serve basis. I will send it to the first person, they send to the second etc. You can take as much from the box as you like, just so you put back just as much. Let me know what you would like in it so I can post that as well. Might find some Christmas gifts!

I think we will have simple rules. Try to keep it full with useful items for creating and if not add some small handmade gift and try to send within a week of recieving. Joey and Kathy you are signed up. Id like to get at least 5 on board, but I will finish filling it and get it sent next week.

Do you have a week to get it together? Delivery confirmation? I am so busy until January, that's why I'm wondering how long each person will keep the box, is it just however long it takes?

I am interested in joining this round robin, It sounds like fun!
It is a neat way to share what you have and get new things to work with. Neat!

I'd like to join.
On average how much postage?
So you ship out the same box?
I've got craftey stuff every where. I tend to have lots of paper, stickers and ribbons.
If your thowing seeds in the box-I've got lots of those too-don't know how 'fresh'
I'm getting into quilting and cocheting. So yarns and fabrics would be nice. Any kind of embelishments that you can put here or there on a project

I am still wondering how much time we will have it before sending it out is required. As long as it takes?

Trish...I think I read one week before sending it out. We don't want people holding everyone else up.

Back from my show! Fun but didnt sell as much as I hoped for. Any way I have 5 ladies signed up as of this morn. #1 Me #2 Kathy, #3 Joey, #4 Jessi, #5 Peggy. We can take on a few more, so please send the addresses. Here is how we will work it. I will write up a few rules and everyones order with addresses and include it in the box. We ask that you send it on within 1 week of receiving it. Send it the cheapest way possible. I am going to try to have enought for a flat rate priority box $11 but I will weigh it both ways and check to see if it is cheaper to send parcel post. Just go to postal service website and click on calculate postage. I hope to have this out no later then midweek. I have several orders to get filled and mailed the next few days and I want to try and included lots of goodies. I will send a list of what I am including so everyone knows what will be in there. Any suggestions let me know! I am excited! Sandy

Ps I am going through some of my items from my show that didnt sell and will include a few, that might make nice simple gifts. I would like to see everyone include items that will help offset the postage, as well as be fun and useful!

Love this idea! I sent you my email address! I can't wait to see what comes in the mail. I have lots of preserved jams, pickles, peppers, yarn, beads, and fabric. I just cleaned out my craft room, so this will be perfect :)

Darlene can you send your address to my email as I am making a email list for everyone. We are up to 9. Here is the order so far.
1. Me
2. kathy
3.Joey
4. Jessi
5.Peggy
6.Rebecca
7.Darlene
8. Rachel
9. Penny
We might take one more but then I think we need to cut it off. I have it about ready to do. I think to speed things up I will just email you all a master list with names and addresses and rules. For you at the bottom, dont worry it should be way after Christmas, but I hope everyone will send it on as soon as possible. When you get it just take what you want from it, but try to find goodies to fill it back up. If there is more than one item, just take one and pass it on. I am sending some seeds, help yourself but if possible leave some for the others. I am weighing my pkg right now and will try to get it mailed tomorrow as well as post a list of contents. Mine weighs 5# so cheapest way to send in priority flat rate of $11. So please everyone include some nice goodies to make this worthwhile. Any ideas on rules or feedback will be appreciated! Thanks Sandy
