/r/craftexchange
A place for redditors to exchange handmade crafts. Please refer to the wiki for trade guidelines. Not a place for self promotion or sales.
Feel free to post a trade request, but please read the guidelines here first!
TL;DR Guidelines for posting:
Flair your post with the location you're trading from OR with [Request] if you have a very specific ask. If you want to exchange craft supplies, that is cool too. We do not allow selling of any kind; trades only.
Specify the type of craft you will make.
Specify what kind of craft you'd like to receive. (If you're open to whatever, mention that too).
Choose your trading partner wisely. Look at their posting history--if responding to you is the first comment they've ever made, be wary. If it looks like they are participating in a lot of different exchanges and might have a lot on their plate already, be wary.
Exchange addresses by PM only. Do not post your personal information in posts or comments.
Post photos of items you received! Flair with [Received]
For buying & selling artworks or crafts, try r/ArtStore
Craft supplies are okay in trades.
Any and all crafts welcome as long as it is handmade by you.

Traded on here and have a smash journal on the way and I’m so excited. In my google searches (I have a lot of scrapbook stuff that’s very nice so it’s a start!) I need these things
Washi tape (I really would like crazy patterns - no matter how tacky)
Ribbon/lace- something black probably- hopefully it has skulls on it
Stickers (I am already obsessed but most of mine are horror movie ones, would like a little levity I guess?)
In return based on the trade but I’ll make you some cute ghosts. They are squishy and great little stress balls. Here’s a pic from last year
I have a few pending trades, anything due this week must be postponed as I had to deal with a dog medical emergency and that has absorbed all of my funds for this paycheck. Anyone can cancel or retract their trades, the 2 items I've received I have the completed items in a storage tub (we had a scorpion infestation, thats what happened to my dog) to keep poison off them until its clear. I will reach out to everyone personally but I did want to let everyone know I'm not just ignoring this, just dealing with a sudden emergency of terrifying proportions. Bark scorpions are deadly and I am glad my dog is alive.
I can trade for other yarn, or even for a handmade crochet item. Whatever you'd like, just lemme know!
I am located in Ontario, Canada, and would like to trade crafts with you peeps! I'm open to anything in return, literally a thank you note would be fun! I love making my crafts, but honestly my friends and family are now at capacity and can't take anymore haha.
I attached photos of a few of the dolls. I call them "whispers", because they only have ears. Lots of my friends into magic, crystals, witchcraft, will put them on their altars, but you do you. Colorways vary based on what scrap fabric I have lying around. Dolls are fabric, plus cotton balls and thread.
Hi! A little about me: I sew bags and quilts. Fabric would be great but I am quite picky and I already have too much.☺️ I love chickens and cats. All traded items would have to be vegan, so no leather or wool.
He’s absolutely beautiful! I love him!!
Pretty open to anything really
Hello! I've gotten very into making things out of resin in the past few months, and I'm looking to trade some supplies I've realized I don't have as much use for as I'd expected.
I have: 40 hexagon cork coaster backings (adhesive on the back), a square silicone coaster mold, 3 silicone stirring sticks, a small silicone tooth mold, a pack of rainbow popsicle sticks, about 3 3/4 yards of shiny blue ribbon, about 3 3/4 yards of orange/pink scale patterned ribbon, as well as jars of handmade "book confetti" (I've made enough to fill about half of a 2 oz jar, but would be happy to make more!)
Looking for: resin dyes/pigments of any kind (especially red, I had a bit of an accident with my red resin dye and spilled most of the bottle 😅), jump rings, necklace chains, keychain rings/clasps, and/or ink pads and stamps! I'm also open to trading for other resin-related supplies
Thank you for looking, and I'll respond to any messages/questions as soon as I am able!
I am taking my kids on a well earned family vacation and need someone with a cricut and a creative streak to make me 4 iron ons (possibly some additional vinyl stickers for water bottles) in exchange for a large crochet item (a full size blanket or sweater or set of hats and scarves) the design will be extremely simple, just our family nickname and the yr in a mix of Disney and Universal fonts
Many thanks from me and the void! Everything is wonderful and I'm so excited to improve my knitting with these!
I hope your journal arrives soon and that you enjoy it!
