LOVE SWAPS! I usually put who I send to and who sends to me in my buddy list-they are all like long lost sisters!

Why Washed - Well that is part of the general board rules :wink: And some people will be pulling from their stash and the receiver might have allergies - perfume, smoke, dust , etc, so it is to be nice :lol:

Colors choices - Well you really won't know who is sending to you until you receive them . Again some will be pulling from their stash and they might have the reds and greens and you want blues and whites - if they send you the colors that they have you won't be happy - if they have to go buy , it might put them in a difficult position :lol:

I do want to stay away from Christmas as some don't celebrate the holiday and others prefer to keep winter decorations out longer :thumbup:
