Some of us had a lot of fun in a simple 'no frills' magazine swap at the beginning of this year. We talked about having a second go - swapping a homes/vintage/craft magazine from our own stash with someone from another country. If you'd like to have another go, please remind yourself of the rules below. If you want to join us for the first time, you are very welcome!
Rulesj
Check that you have at least one magazine of the craft/vintage/lifestyle genre for the coming season that you are prepared to swap. Don't go out and buy a new one! Bearing in mind that people from different hemispheres have opposite seasons, the southerners might prefer a spring edition to an autumn one - I'd love to see an Aussie autumn mag, myself.
j
Sign up here, letting me know if you want a magazine in English or if you are prepared to just enjoy the pictures in a 'foreign-language' mag. Let me know if the mag you have is in English or another language. Mine are in French so it's fine to join in with non-English ones... Also let me know if you'd prefer to post locally or internationally.
j
Closing date for entries will be September 10th.
jjj
I will sort out swap partners and let you know your partner by September 14th. Get to know them a bit and check to see that you won't be posting something they already have a copy of! Exchage adresses by email.
j
Pack up your magazine and post it to your swap partner with a little note or pretty card, to arrive in or before early October. This is the No Frills part! No extras, no hard work, no feeling guilty because your partner sent you something extra that you didn't think to send them. No Frills. Easy Swap.
j
Obviously, please do advertise the swap by putting my logo and a link to this post onto your sidebar or in a post. The more the merrier!
Admin: To make it easier to count and match swappers, I'm deleting any 'second comments' so please don't panic if your second comment has gone - I've made a note of what you said!

Yes please! I'd love to exchange with an American or Australian (English speaking).
Oh, can I play this time please! I'd love a French magazine, but actually the thrill of the game would be quite sufficient!
Can I join in this time please, would love American or Australian if pos but if this makes it difficult then anywhere would be fine.
Ooooh very exciting!

Yes please Floss, it was fun last time. Would like to stay in Europe - would love to have France? Thankyou - Betty x
Oh yes please - count me in :)
I really fancy reading a US mag this time if you get any US bloggers taking part. Am sure a fall or christmas one from there would be fantastic.
Yes please, great idea.
My mag I'm sending is in English but I don't mind what language I get one in, somewhere over than England would be great.
Thanks
Hi Floss, I'd love to join in please. The magazine I'll send will be in English. I'm happy to post anywhere and would be happy with any European language.
Thanks

I would love to be part of this. I will be sending English and will be happy to swap with anyone you choose...on second thought, I would probably own most of the USA ones.
Thanks for hosting this swap.
Oh, I'd love to join in again, Floss. The magazine I'll send will be in English, either an American or a Canadian magazine, and I'd love one back in French.
It was so much fun last time!
I'd love to join in! I wouldn't mind a non-English language one; I'm happy enough looking at the pictures! I have magazines in English and German, the German ones are fairly easy to understand, they're pretty similar to UK Country Living.
Yes, Floss, I would love to participate this time. I'll send an English magazine from the U.S. and would love to receive an English magazine from anywhere else in the world.
Sounds fun!

No particular demands, I'll be happy with whatever I get and I can send a Marie-Claire Idées, which seem to be very popular.
Hi Floss,
Would love to join. I have English or French mags and would love a mag from France/USA/Canada or Oz.

Thanks Floss!
Hi Floss!
I had so much fun in your previous magazine swap, so why don't join in again?!
I'm not fussy, I'll be happy with whatever I'll receive. (I can offer a Christmas CL/UK edition or Italian magazines)
Thank you!

I'd love to join in with your swap this time around, my magazines are English or French and I'd be happy to receive any in either of these languages too.
Hi, can I join in too. I'd like an American/Canadian magazine if poss. I've a number of magazines (English ones) I could swap, depending on partners interests.
Great swap idea! Please count me in. I'm in Australia so I have English mags, but would love a French mag in exchange. Thanks!
Karen, Surrey has entered too!

I would love to join in - my magazine will be and english one - dont mind posting or receiving from anywhere in any language - as long as there is lots of pictures!!
Oh this sounds so lovely! I will be sending out English magazines, but would love to receive something in another language, if possible. I'm fine with an English return too, though it might be good to learn some bits of another language, or practice some of what I already know! I'm happy to send anywhere in the world too!
Thank you!
Great idea: I'd love to join in. My magazine will be in English but I'd love to receive an international one.

I have American or German magazines to swap. Happy to receive from any country. Nicholam@mac.com
Just found a magazine I could swap, unusual for me as I normally pass them on to friends..so please can I join up ?
I'd like to try again - any magazine would be fine, in any language, and I'll send Canadian magazines. I took part last time, and received a lovely package, but the one that I sent, apparently never made it, although a trace showed that it had been delivered.
I've thoroughly enjoyed your blog. Please sign me up for the swap. I'm in the US and will send an English mag. I'm happy to receive a magazine in any language.
Sounds like fun! I'm in the U.S. as well so my magazines would be in English. Would prefer to receive English too if possible.
Dee in Australia is joining in by email.
I'd like to take part. I have both American and German magazines and would be happy to swap with someone from anywhere else!
