Description:

This is an International Swap. OK WLS’ Swappers. Here is the “From My Hands to Yours"

Lets Swap something YOU Make - it can be anything at all, as long as it is HANDMADE BY YOU. No $$$ amount set, since it is homemade! We will have one person to swap to; this perhaps will allow us to focus on our special partner, our project and not feel rushed. One item – one partner. It does not have to be to your partners likes, however, you might want to keep them in mind. There's three (3) weeks of project time, from sign up date and send by date. Nuff said? :)

Whole-lotta-swappa members only. http://www.flickr.com/groups/whole-lotta-swappa/ if you are not a member of WLS, you will be dropped, before the sign up deadline. Just ask for an invite, if you meet requirements and let us know how to find you (per say a swap you were in or send us a link to your profile) and we will do the rest. Flickr.com is free, if you are not a Flickr member, take steps to become one, you don\\'t have to load photos to be a member of Flickr.

Most WLS swappers know we can rate 7 to 10 days after send by deadline. PLEASE rate the person whom sent to you! AND please let them know it came in. IMPORTANT: Do not rate by if you like the item, however rate on: homemade & date sent by.

Whole-Lotta-Swappa is not a swap; it is a group of trusted swappers. The “My hands to your hands" is the swap.

WLS is a group of people who have worked on and have proven themselves worthy of being an honest swapper! If you are in this group and you are in a WLS swap, you insure yourself more, that you will get something back in the swap you are in!

If you’re interested, please visit the web site above, there’s a link and ask for an invite. BUT tell us what some of your swaps were so we can verify who you are. If your Flickr name is different than your swap-bot screen name please add it to your profile.

Shouldn't this be posted as a private swap if it's for a select group of individuals? Or is this just a way to promote your group?

WillowTree21 03/10/2007 #

WLS is no different than administrators on Swap-bot.com saying they don't want people with ratings under 4.5 or 5 in their swaps. There are requirements for the Whole-lotta-swappa group, but it isn’t a private group. WLS on Flickr.com allows us to share photos and talk freely. It is a group where people have met other swappers who share the same devotion to swapping. There’s nothing private about WLS. This swap isn’t about promoting a group of people, however, I see nothing of harm about sharing the groups information with others searching through swaps here on Swap-bot.com. I see thus far you are a good swapper, perhaps in the future you would like to join us as awesome, trust worthy, honest swappers?

I signed up at WLS, but I'm not sure if anyone has viewed my profile. How do I find out if I in or not? Thanks for your help!

WillowTree21 03/10/2007 #

Jbtmykids, the best way to see that you are a member, which you are and have been :), is to click the link above, click the "members" and it will show you all members. You may have to click "more" which is under tikiheads icon, it's a photo of her right now. If you click "Discussion" that page will share with you things we are talking about, which was one reason this swap was created. :)

jbtmykids 03/10/2007 #

Thank you so much! When I signed up I didn't have time to fully utilize the site. So now I'll go back & spend some time on it. Thanks again!

hi there! ooops I just asked for an invite through flickr and forgot to put down what swaps I have been in. They include : From my hands to yours (Jan 07), Handmade Bracelet Swap (Jan 07) - unfortunately one of my partners didn't leave me a rating, Japanese Dollar Store II (Jan 07), Australians all let us swap (Jan/Feb 07). The only craft that I do is handmade jewellry though - I hope this is ok. Thanks and hopefully I can sign up for this swap (:

TriStateLinx 03/15/2007 #

Hi, I just signed up with WLS but it brought me back to swap-bot to sign up. Is that correct? Am I in?

Please let me know.

Thanks a mill.

WillowTree21 03/15/2007 #

Tri - state Linx, whatis your Ficr name? You might be pending. :)

Windchimes 03/16/2007 #

I just did the request for the invite at Flickr. I am not sure if they refer to me as NebraskaKnitter or as KnittingWillows - the URL to find my Flickr is on my profile. I get so confused at Flickr - I am going to sit down and figure that darn site out as soon as I can. I would love to be a part of this. I am just waiting to hear back from you now I guess.

TriStateLinx 03/16/2007 #

I don't have one. Something went wrong yesterday because I came right back to swap-bot. So I don't know if it work or not. That was very confusing to me. I'll try again.

TriStateLinx 03/16/2007 #

Ok, my name is Trinigirlknits.

TriStateLinx 03/16/2007 #

So what is next. I am truly confused over this.

WillowTree21 03/16/2007 #

Tri-state Linx,

No confusion please! I have matched you now with your pending account name over on Flickr. Look for an email soon from me. :)

FunToScrap 04/ 6/2007 #

Mine has been sent, but I am not saying to who... :-) Sorry, but I am one of those people that LOVES surprises. I go out of my way NOT to guess what my Christmas presents are. Which, I gotta tell you is really hard because my husband is not very good at staging surprises. Example, for my birthday he bought me a lens for my camera and left the receipt and confirmation in the printer tray. For Christmas he ordered us a new Comfortaire bed and had it shipped to our home, where I am all day every day. :-) Hey, PLEASE post pictures of your swaps. Warmly, Chy

Just want to let you know that I did not get my swap sent on Friday. I had some things come up and despite my best intentions, I didn't make it on time. Our local post office was not open Sat & Sun, either. But I do have it all ready to go on Monday (way, way across the sea-hint hint)! :D

dandelion 04/ 9/2007 #

Swap sent, on it's way via airmail! :D

WillowTree21 04/ 9/2007 #

LOL Chy! You have a hubby some people would die for! lol :)

As for uploading photos here on swap-bot, Swap-bot gives me issus with this from time to time. Grrrrrr

I think DD sending hers airmal made up for the late send by date! Ouch, the price of mail! :D

Zanara 04/10/2007 #

I received ozorb's package in the mail today - lovely!!!

WillowTree21 04/16/2007 #

I have noticed Wigglywourms isnt around and is late on sending some swaps!

Something must be wrong! Please don't rate her until we find out whats going on! Thanks!

Admin of WLS Whole-lotta-swappa! If you know something we don't know please let us know! Thanks!
