UPDATE: Thanks for all the swapping offers! I’m booked up for US swaps until late September but I still am looking for more Japanese swapping! Please kindly note I go back to college at the end of September so am likely to be very poor and not able to swap until Christmas when I will be working again!
_____________________________________________________________________________
Been reading “Gimme your stuff” site today and thought what a great idea.
I’m up for swapping and would like to swap with people from Japan and America.
I can swap items from the UK and upon request Italy (as I go there quite often.)
I can send
Art and crafts supplies
Magazines
CD’s
Newspapers
Sweets/Candy
Small English and Italian (non-spoilable in the post) foodstuffs / ingredients
Make-up
Just about anything small, and legal to send through the post!
My maximum value per swap package sent will be £20.00 GBP/$38.00/Y4,300. I will send by whatever is the fastest and cheapest method of insured* post.
I would like:
Japan
Cute kawaii Japanese fabric - I can send exact pictures of what I like!
Cute food / Housewares Re-ment (Petite Sample Series) for my Blythe dolls
Kawaii Craft / Blythe doll magazines
Amigurumi
‘Zakka’ from Decole and Cram Cream
Cute sewing notions
America
BUST magazine
Real Simple magazine
Cupcake baking items / hard to find (dry) American ingredients
Cute fabric from Jo-Ann’s
Crafting products impossible to get in the UK
I have 100% eBay feedback (user: Bobbleblythe) and am an all round great gal. Hope to hear from swappers soon!
Leave a comment (moderated) or email me at bobblelife[at]gmail[dot]com
*Or whatever method of post we agree on.

Hi Bea, thanks for joining Gimme!!
I tried to send you an Email, but I got an error message “does not like recipient.” could you please email me so I can get your correct address? I also need to know what part of the UK you’re from, I guessed England, but am probably wrong!!
Thanks!!

Hi, I purchase Real Simple whenever it comes out, and I hate to toss them after I’m done reading them. If you wanted, I could send you a few months worth, along with some other goodies. I am currently in Iowa, in the US. Just let me know.

Uwoh! I’m totally new to it too, but it seems like so much fun! If you’re still interested, I live in Houston, Texas and would love to do a swap! Drop me a mail if you’d like~
