Number of swap partners:1
Description:

noel coordinated a good fairy swap at the begining of the year. I think it's time for another one.

This is an International swap.

Have you participated in swaps where you send your items but don't receive anything from your partner? This swap is for you. You will send your partner something they never received.

Post in the discussion section all swaps you never recieved anything in with a brief description of the swap. NOTE: You must post the missed swaps by the June 1 signup deadline or you will be removed from the swap.

When partners are assigned, find your partner and read their post. As their good swap fairy you will then send the a swap they did not receive. If you can send them more than one, even better! You are only required to fairy one swap. Your swap must be sent by July 2, 2007.

If you can't send the exact swap your partner did not receive, be creative! Check their profile and maybe swap another item your partner would love. Were they supposed to receive a handcrafted item but you don't have that skill? You could send supplies related to that skill and/or swap. The most important thing is that your partner receives something nice selected especially for them since they never received anything the first time around.

Swaps not received with a "send by" date of May 16 or before qualify as not received.

This swap is open to swappers with a rating of 4.6 or higher who haven't received from a swap and have a history of sending out swaps.

I have been extremely lucky in that angels have voluntarily stepped forward for a few swaps I have not received recently (kudos to dragonfly and Lisa!). I am not going to join this swap, but, Courtney, if anyone needs an angel after this is all over, please let me know - I will be happy to angel for one person. T.

Some swaps I've been in and not recieved anything :( are Feb. Birthday swap (from 2 naughty swappers) personalized playing cards (altering a full deck of playing cards). ABC mini cards, matchbox set of drawers, 5 items you would carry in your purse, swap to make-up no sends, Chinese take-out box fill, wallet swap, handbag swap, magnet swap...

Liseanne27 05/21/2007 #

Thank you for doing this swap. I was beginning to become more discouraged at one point when the 3 swaps I was involved in I didn't get anything or only from one of the swappers. These are the 3 that really made me upset.

A cup of tea & a magazine page swap #4 http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/2422

Cute Socks and a Card (International) http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/2187

Car Stereo CD swap (2 out of 3 didn't send) http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/1734

SewFun 05/21/2007 #

I haven't been swapping here that long, and so far, knock on wood, I've only gotten stiffed once. There are a few pending, and one is late, I'll update if that one comes missing before this swap starts.

The Newbie Swap: Pick 3-

Pick 3: Pick 3 of these items and send to your partner. You will have 2 partners. 2 notecards and envelopes, 4 pieces stationery and 2 envelopes, 2 regular sheets of stickers (not the small sheets no reward stickers), 1 gel pen, 1 bookmark (which can be hand made or store bought), 1 memo pad, 1 pack post it notes, 1 postcard.

Courtney - what a great idea!

Hmm. I forgot to put a line break in between those two. I'll do it here:

The ones I'd like an Angel for: Funky Socks swap: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/3008 - 1 partner flaked on me. And the Australian swap: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/1885 - I was quite disappointed not to get this one. It's not for Australian stuff, just a "cheer up" package for your partner. Thanks.

Annette 05/26/2007 #

Hello, Courtney!

I've been very lucky on swap-bot so far, I've received something in each of my swaps -- so I won't sign up for this swap. But I would love to send a good fairy gift to someone if you'd like extra help here. : ) I see quite a few things in these lists that would be fun to put together.

Courtney 05/27/2007 #

Hi annette! Thanks so much for your offer. I'll contact you.

figneutrons 05/28/2007 #

Hooray for this! I was majorly bummed about not receiving my Alice in Wonderland swap . I had so much fun putting together my package for it though. Can't wait for this!

mrsD 05/31/2007 #

the only swap I would love to have angeled is Cupcake Love

http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/2541

this was for a package of cupcake-related items. since I am a foodie and all about the cupcakery goodness, I have to say I was pretty darn crushed to not get anything. I did have a blast preparing my swap for my recipient though, who loved her goodies. I would appreciate any small cupcake thingy, and I love handmade! thanks so much :)

Brandi 06/ 1/2007 #

I never received anything from the Rainbow Swap.

http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/2101

I was very disappointed! I had a blast picking out the items for my partner and enjoyed sending them to her!

This is a great idea!

I missed the first swap fairy swap, so I'm glad there's another one!

  • Turtle Swap
  • Wish Stones
  • Favorite Color Matchbox (Mine is Yellow)
SewFun 06/ 1/2007 #

Ive had a second swap go bad. Not bad considering, but...

Anyway, it the Quilt Block swap for an 8" quilt block, anything goes beyond that.

So just that and the newbie, pick three I listed above, for me.

Thanks Laura

Artistic 06/ 1/2007 #

Hi there: When I found Swap-bot in February I thought it was fabulous. Now, well... let's just say I've discovered there are flakers here too.

I never received anything for a) May Birthday Extravaganza. (My b-day was May 8.)

b) 100-One hundred- 100

c) My Tiny Box of Joy

For another two, the hostesses made good on the flakers so I'm not listing those. For another one, my partner says the package is postal but nothing has arrived and she's still listed as Not Sent. Sigh.

SnaughtyGirl 06/ 2/2007 #

Hello to my Good Fairy -

Just to let you know that my swap partner for the handmade bookmark swap came through (hers was late and she hadn't marked sent before I made my list).

Thanks!

Courtney 06/ 2/2007 #

That is wonderful news Snaughty Girl.

noel should be posting her list here ASAP.

We're about 2.5 weeks from the sent by deadline of July 2. I hope everyone is having fun plotting and sending their good fairy packages. If anyone has received their package, do post here and let us know!

Artistic 06/19/2007 #

My package went postal to my partner in the U.K. Boy did I have a blast shopping for her!

em 06/21/2007 #

Just got back from the post office to mail my package to Noel. I wish I had more money because there was so much more I wanted to get. I did manage to angel 4.5 of her flaked swaps.

I hope you like it, Noel!

Courtney 07/ 2/2007 #

Today is the send by deadline for this swap. Hopefully everyone has put together a fairy gift for their partner to brighten up their day. Please remember to mark your swap as "sent" once it is mailed and to thank your partner in this thread and with a rating.

SnaughtyGirl 07/ 2/2007 #
