Jake started collecting and trading on our last visit. But here's my question--can I send them from disney.com to my exchange pal if I join in? I can't seem to find them around here, and the outlet store doesn't usually have any.

I'm going to sound like a "noob" as my son would say, but what is pinpics account?? :lmao:

Meriweather

07-06-2009, 03:08 PM

pinpics is a website that you can list all your pins on. A great way to keep track.
You can also list the pins you want and the ones you have to trade.
And, if you want, you can do trading there too.

My pinpics name is meriweather ;)
Go there and under my pinpics (on the left) and put that name in and it will show you my collection.
It is great for the exchanges too because we can see what people already have and what they are looking for.

I'm in! I've not done an exchange in a while and I quite fancy it now. I'm sad I missed the Lime Green one, but it was just bad timing for me.

Now, how many exchanges shall I do..... :rotfl:

Meriweather

An elf is a person that volunteers to step in and send an extra package out in case some one doesn't follow through. We want everyone to receive ::yes::

There is a sticky at the top of the page with the exchange index. The date for the Nov and also the Mar. pin exchanges are listed.

:rotfl: Heidi.....I have soooo many traders ;) Got a lot of duplicates this last trip. I am also doing 4 this time :teeth:

07-07-2009, 05:22 PM

nope....I was wondering about her since she is one that wanted the lime green exchange and then never signed up.

Her mother joined this exchange and never said anything about her.
Maybe just busy or something :confused:

She is fine, just life getting in the way. She is busy looking for a job and has also got a place at college if she wants it.Has a job interview next week. I'll tell her people are asking about her.

Meriweather

07-07-2009, 05:57 PM

Thanks, Seonaid.....we were wondering about her, but figured you would say something if something was wrong.
Good luck to her with the job search. My DD is going through that too.....but without much success so far :(

Pooh67_68

07-07-2009, 08:03 PM

Nancy the sad thing is I resisted pin trading for a long time, and then only started out with a few that I liked. Then I joined in the trading here back when nickandjuliasmom was hosting.

Thank you Seonaid, was hoping all was well with Sarah. :) Much luck and :wizard: that she finds a job.

Meriweather

07-07-2009, 08:27 PM

LOL....sadder. I didn't start trading at first either....just bought the ones I liked.
didn't trade until I took over this exchange :rotfl: And then everyone got me addicted and into the trading thing too ;)
but I must admit, I was buying a lot because there are soooo many great ones!!

I got my pin bag out the other day because I bought three shadow boxes for half price at Hobby Lobby. I have started on one and it is Chip & Dale pins. Don't have quite enough to fill it so have room for more next trip in October. :cool1: Might make the next shadow box a Mickey one. Love looking at those pins! :love:

I can take a picture but I don't know how to show it to you. :rotfl: I'm not very techie and I don't know how everyone gets their pics on here. :confused:

The shadow box has a linen look fabric in the back over something soft (good for sticking pins in) and I bought a smaller piece of thin foam with a sticky back on it and put on the linen fabric so that the linen fabric shows all the way around like a border or mat.

You take a picture and upload it to a site....I use photobucket for sharing.
Once it is loaded it has a spot already for you to copy and paste it here for us to see....or you can e-mail it to me and I can do it

Now I'm having camera trouble. I can't even get my camera to upload the pics to my computer. I'll keep working on it though.

...is everyone s'posed to post here when their package has been shipped?

No Kim, this is the sign-up thread.
There is a separate sent/received thread.
Everyone (besides you :rotfl: ) has posted over there and has been sharing their pins as they have been arriving.
