.... blarter? Or swap on Swap-bot? I do! I just recently learned about blarter .... it is a site where you can barter crafty stuff ... pretty cool! I have a ton of Japanese crochet books that I would like to trade for stuff I am more in to at the moment .. like Denyse Schmidt fabric or quilting patterns, etc, so I am going to be putting them "up" for barter on blarter .... try saying that 3X fast! And, now that I am out of school I will be swapping again. In case you have never heard of it, swap-bot is a site where you can participate in swaps ... my favorites are the craft supply swaps ... one person's old boring craft supply stash is another person's new inspiration, you know?
Can you tell I am in de-stash mode at the moment? Besides bartering and swapping, I am going to be listing some items on Etsy and eBay in the near future .... I have waaay too much stuff!!!
What about you, when your craft supply gets out of control what do you do to get it back under control?
I wonder wish Japanese craft books you will
ReplyDeletebe having up for swap and/or for your shop???!!!!
I love Japanese craft books! :-)
@ My 1st Bambina -- they are all Japanese crochet books to make kawaii stuff like Amigurumi, they are a lot of fun, and easy to follow ... but I have too many! If you are interested, drop me an email: thesplitstitch (at) live (dot) com .... hugs, Sara :)
ReplyDeleteI am on Swap Bot too, but I just started and I can only participate in the easy ones. Hope you have a good time there and trade your old boring stash for a new inspiring one.
ReplyDeleteI love to barter and have done a good deal of it. Since I am a new quilter, I have been able to trade hand crafted jewelry for fabric, some scraps, other pieces are larger. :o) It has sure been a blessing, for both parties. :o) Please feel free to drop by my blog, my Etsy shop is on the right side bar. :o)
ReplyDeleteSincerely, Trish
Yadira -- I feel like I can't participate in the really good ones yet either -- I have around 30 completed, but I have noticed more and more lately that seem like you have to have even more completed. Oh well! I just figure eventually I will have enough behind me!
