I have seen several swaps for whimsey jars in the US and thought it was about time us UK swappers had one.

take a medium sized jar, decorate and fill with assorted goodies ie: buttons, charms, ribbons, sweets, stickers a note etc etc etc

the list is endless just put in the jar anything you would like to recieve.

as us uk swappers are a friendly bunch anyone is welcome to join but new swappers I will be checking profiles.

I have never heard of this before sounds fun, do i just use a normal jar that had food in, wash it out and use it?

Sam 01/ 8/2008 #

hi donna yes just a normal jar I will be using a nescafe jar more than likley

spinjenny 01/ 8/2008 #

Must it be a glass jar? and what size nescafe jar are you considering?

Sam 01/ 8/2008 #

no it could be a plastic jar and its a medium sort of jar not a large one or a small one (sorry rambling) i have already tken the label off so i cannot check! silly me its slightly larger than a jam jar

Sounds like fun. Can you do another one a bit later on please? I will be moving house around that time

Sam 01/10/2008 #

Okay...I've now filled my allowed quota of February swaps LOL

I know you can send basically anything, but I would really love my filled with sewing related items. Is it okay to request this?

Also, do you have to decorate the whole jar or can you just do something with the lid and maybe some ribbon round jar itself.

Sam 01/11/2008 #

Hi Ellie

you can do whatever you want i have seen some really cute ones where you decorate the lid and tie ribbons round.

yes you can request a certain type of filling for your jar thats fine.

happy swapping

Sounds like a fun swap! I've been trying to find a empty glass jar before i sign up, lol.

Sounds a great idea, I'll definitely be looking out to find a plastic jar to fill, though, after watching the sorting office throw all the parcels around a couple of weeks ago!!
