Second String

A swap for those who can't or won't get into the next round of Back Tack.  Second String will take place prior to Back Tack III, so they won't clash if you are going to participate in Back Tack III.  I'm thinking Second String will be a great opportunity to use up some of your crafty Christmas presents.

Second String Rundown...

Open to 20 participants.
Anonymous.
Ring style, a lá backtack.
Suggestions for swap theme accepted from participants up until 2 weeks before start date.
Low Cost swap - use what you've got in your stash.

Second String Nitty Gritty...

*  All participants must have successfully taken part in at least three swaps. (a swap is successful if you have met your part of the bargain.)
*  You must have a blog, and you must update regularly (like more than once a month).
*  Be prepared to swap internationally.
*  Be prepared to communicate with your partner.
*  Meet the minimum requirements for the swap - extra is always welcomed, but not required.
*  Complete the pre-participation "survey" - this will then be forwarded to your partner to provide information to assist in the swap process.
*  Participate for the experience of creating and giving - not for the chance to get something.
