Description:

As Alex Wrekk eloquently put it: What is a zine you ask? (pronouned like magazine without the mag)

They are: - physical printed self published creations that can consist of a single sheet of paper or over 100. - Independently made for the love of creating and rarely make a profit. - contents can be but are not limited to: personal stories, political ideologies, music related writing, gardening tips, jokes, lists of things you fancy or don't fancy, comics, photography, fiction, drawings, anything!

Now that that's out of the way.... This is a swap for all of you zineesters that need a little spruce or refresh in your zine materials to use!

So in a package for 2 partners include at least 3 types of the following for zine supplies:

vintage ads, old magazines, flyers, stickers, travel pamplets, photographs, recycled treasures, weird patterned papers, origami papers, glue sticks, sharpie markers (!), tape, cement glue, perhaps d.i.y. directions to making your own paper or rubber stamps? Anything that can be used in the process of making zine or final copy.

Last part: Include a zine you've already made yourself!

Hooray, new supplies and networking. Have fun...

*NO Flakers. and people with unexplained 3's or 1's.

Awesome idea! Watching for now since I don't think I can take on any more swaps of this type but I'd be all over it in a heartbeat otherwise!

I am very new to zines but am finding it great fun. Looking forward to this one.

So this swap can include new items or from our zine stash, or both? I just wanted to make sure.

Both! just nothing too beaten up....

Ok thanks. I just wanted to make sure because I just went shopping for new stuff.
