- each person could bring up to 20 quality items that they would otherwise donate / throw out.
- as we displayed the items we put white stickers on the things that were part of the "swap". this way, there was no confusion about what was part of the house, and what was part of the "swap".
- after brunch and a few drinks, we drew numbers to decide who got to "shop" first. we each took turns choosing one item from the display.
- every item was free and equal.
- after everyone was done "shopping", we loaded up the truck and sent "pseudo hubby" off to goodwill.
fine art photography and crafty goodies... a perfectly lovely mixture of inspiration and joy.
