Swap symbol Gift Symbol
Purchase Symbol
Each item listed below will have one of these symbols attached. I hope you'll enjoy looking at all the items and contact me if you are interested in finding one in your care.
The swap symbol means I will be asking for something from you, it might very well be something completely different from the item up for swap so don't worry if you don't 'do' fibre.
The gift symbol means just that, if you think the item would make you smile or add some other positive to your life just write to me and tell me why it is your gift:0)
The purchase symbol
does mean the item is 'for sale', however the sale price is set by us
both, it's not an honesty box kind of system where you plonk your coins
in the slot and walk away without saying hello. I could put up a 'for
sale at £...' notice for what it would sell for commercially but that
is not what this place is about. The purchase symbol is there because I
would like the purchase to be an expression of the connection between
us all so I intend to pass on all the money from sales, barring the
replacement cost of the materials, to anyone I hear of who is finding
they have even less than the mythical $1/60p a day to live on in their
terms. That will be people I hear of in my locality and further afield
through web word of mouth and charities I try to support like Save The Children and Water Aid. I will send regular updates to purchasers of how their money has been shared.
