crafty swapping

""If you are anything like me you work very hard for a living, raising the kids, running the house and even holding down a "proper" job?

On top of this you choose to open your online shop because you love to make things or are passionate about life gone bye. In these difficult times wouldn't it be great to supplement the sales from our shops and get those little extras by trading or swapping the things we have!

Now, life is hectic enough without involving ourselves in another full time activity. So, what if you could choose a couple of items, list them somewhere and almost forget about them until another person wanted them? Sounds easy? Then Swap Workshop is the place for you.

Take a look at our introduction and when you join you will receive free points when you list your first 3 items!

""Swap Workshop - where crafters swap & no trade is ever turned down""

It doesn't matter how it is related, as long as you shout out about Swap Workshop.
