Please copy and paste the text from the box below into a comment.
Please remember that this year, with us sending out a survey to help with matching, we need more information about both what you like and what you make. Feel free to include links etc. When we send out the survey, it will ask you for the names of people you would love to receive craft from, those you'd like to make craft for, and those you're not a compatible match with. These surveys will be private to the mods only.
Name: We don’t need your real name right now. We'll ask for that when we get your address for your crafter.
Email: PLEASE make sure it’s one that you check regularly. There are a few times throughout the fest that we will need to get a hold of you via email.
Things you love: We need to know what hobbies, interests and fandoms make you happy. Please be specific as you can, from favorite color, favorite character, favorite song, etc etc...You don’t want a Gryffindor scarf if you’re in Slytherin now do you? Or let's say you put that one of your interests is horses, but you are terrified of unicorns, you wouldn’t want any of those showing up on an embroidered thing, would you? Also, if you don’t want fandom related things, or only want fandom related things, let us know that too. Same goes for interests and hobbies.
Any allergies/postal restrictions/simple DNWs: Allergies--we need to know all the things you can’t have from food allergies to scents and fibers. Postal restrictions--are there things your country won’t let be sent through the mail? Sometimes this differs if the packages are sent internationally or within the same country. Simple Do Not Wants--This is the place to put things you just don’t like, crafts you really don’t want to receive. It's too hot for woollens? Don’t want to receive the same type of craft that you make? This is the place to tell us.
What kind of crafter are you? What are you willing to gift? Are you a potter or a woodworker? A knitter or a junk journaller? Do you dabble in a bunch of things? Are the things connected by medium? If so, are there things you DON’T do? This is a chance to talk about the crafts you love to do.
What country do you live in? and Are you willing to ship internationally? These two go together. If you live outside the USA, and can't ship internationally for whatever reason, we might still be able to match you. Get in touch with the mods to talk more. This year, we need everyone to track their parcels and make sure to tick 'gift' on the customs declaration, thanks!

Things you Geek About (interests, hobbies, fandoms):
Fandom-wise, currently I'm head over heels for MDZS/The Untamed (Jiang Cheng specifically, though I love all the main characters); I also adore Agent Carter, Stargate (both SG1 and Atlantis), Young Avengers (Tommy!), Vorkosigan Saga (Ivan <3), Ronin Warriors/YST, Narnia, The Goblin Emperor, The Martian.
Aesthetics: I like jewel tones (especially teals, cobalt blues, purples, raspberries-- basically, peacock colors), gold & silver, sparkly things!!!, art nouveau (esp Mucha-style swirlies), art deco, Asian and Egyptian and Space Age aesthetics, cherry blossoms & dogwood (and flowers more generally), travel, tea & coffee, languages & linguistics, dragons and griffins, enamel pins, shiny rocks-- basically if you think a magpie would like it, I probably would too.
Any allergies/postal restrictions/simple DNWs: I'm allergic to nickel, wool, and possibly titanium. Would prefer nothing that's a muddied brown-ish green or orange color, no tote bags, no bracelets, and no strong artificial scents (natural scents are fine). No spearmint (peppermint and wintergreen are fine).
What country do you live in? US
Are you willing to ship internationally? Yes
What kind of crafter are you?/What are you willing to gift? Primarily jewelry- generally beaded, metal clay, or resin. Occasionally rehabbing & decorating wooden items.
Are you willing to pinch hit if necessary? No, sorry! First year doing this and I don't want to overstretch.
What about if shipping is paid for?
