FAQ:
Can I come to the swap if I don't bring in supplies?
Yes! You can come starting at 11 am.
Can I bring in supplies but not come to the swap?
Yes!
Is there a limit on how much I can take from the swap?
We want everyone to feel like they had a fair chance to take home something great, so from 10:30 a.m. - 2 p.m. we're asking everyone to be mindful of our entire crafting community and only take what you can personally use. From 2-3 p.m., feel free to take items on behalf of organizations and as many items you might personally want to save us from having to clean up!
