Description:

I hosted this swap last year and decided to go with it again this year, so here is round 2 of Haunted Beginnings!

For this swap, you will be creating a Halloween themed Inspiration Kit for your partner. This "kit" will need to fill a DECORATED 6x9 business envelope, you may go larger if you need to but the envelope MUST be at least 6inx9in or an envelope of equal dimensions (all sides adding up to at least 30 inches.)

So basically, you are putting together a decorated, Halloween themed Random envie.

An Inspiration Kit is basically an assortment of random items that can be used for crafting, decorating and inspiring your partner. It is senders choice, but everything MUST BE HALLOWEEN THEMED / Inspired.

Some examples of what one might include:

  • Items using Halloween colors like orange, black, purple, ect.
  • Lace, Ribbon, Yarn, Twine, Trimming ect. (at least 6inch pieces)
  • spools of thread, sewing notions, buttons, pins
  • beads, charms, embellishments, brads, cupcake decoration picks, pendants, stationery
  • paper ephemera, paper materials, postcards, notecards, decorative napkins
  • tape or tape samples, confetti, punched shapes, decorations, stickers, tags
  • Envelopes, nicely stamped images, chipboards
  • Quotes, sayings, story book pages
  • fabric squares, embroidery thread, felt, linens
  • handmade crafts, artwork

The possibilities are endless. Think Orange, Black, Red, Whites, Purples, Greens, Ghosts, Bats, Pumpkins, Jack-O-Lanterns, Vampires, Full Moons, Monster movies, ect. Let your imagination go wild on this one.

You may include drink or edibles like candy or tea, but these should be only a SMALL part of the kit and should not make up the majority of the items. If you do include food or drink items, please check your partners profile for allergies.

As always: No unexplained 1s or 3s. I will be checking profiles and reserve the right to remove any swapper for any reason. Sorry, but no unrated swappers for this swap. Swappers must have at least 5 type 3 ratings to participate in this swap.

Since this is senders choice, it will be a quick turnaround swap.


If you search for "Inspiration Kit" on etsy.com you'll find many great examples of Inspiration kits and ideas on what you could include. ex 1 ex 2 ex 3
