Description:

Hi all! This is a swap i've hosted locally in previous years but this year i thought why not do it as an international swap! Due to the size, cost and time for this swap i will be very specific with the guidelines as i would absolutely hate for anyone to miss out at Christmas! So please read closely. :)

For this swap you will get 24 small gifts for your partner (one for each day in December to open in the lead up to Christmas). These items can be anything your partner would enjoy. Please check your partners profiles for ideas. This is the section i really want to stress: READ YOUR PARTNERS PROFILE THOROUGHLY! All 24 items MUST match their profile. DO NOT send things that they do not want or can not use. Eg. If they are allergic to lavender, do not send them lavender soap, if they are diabetic do not send them sugary treats, etc. etc.

Each little present must be wrapped individually in Christmas paper and have written on them a number between 1 and 24. This is so the person knows which day of December to open each gift. Take a little care and make this an exciting way for your partner to count down to Christmas!

To make sure we receive from a Country other than our own this is going to be one swap participant per Country. Please post your Country in the comments below. I will post an updated list each time someone either signs up or drops out to keep everyone informed :)

Now for the all important swap rules. Please read this list closely as i will be checking all swappers before assigning partners and i won't hesitate to ban you if you don't meet the requirements. These are all in place to ensure a safe and fun swap environment!
- You MUST have an overall rating of at least 4.8
- Absolutely NO 1 ratings!!
- No 3 ratings in the last 12 months
- YOU MUST have completed a minimum of 25 type 3 swaps!
- No newbies!
- To ensure that nobody forgets about this swap YOU MUST have signed into swap-bot within the five days before sign up ends.
- Must have a fully filled out profile as it would be very hard to buy/make 24 gifts for someone with no ideas of what to get!

Packages must be sent out by November 2nd so that they arrive in time for December and the unwrapping process! And please remember to consider what the cost and time of this swap will be. Remember that cost applies to both the items and also the cost of international postage so have a think before signing up.

I think that's about all! If you have any questions just ask and as always happy swapping and Merry Christmas!

Canada, please and thank you!

Angie1974 08/ 7/2014 #

Okay, I'm a moron. I got REALLY excited, and realize now I haven't done enough swaps. BUT, I'm sure I could complete this many by the swap date. Does that work?! Probably not, I know.

Angie1974 08/ 7/2014 #

And I'm a newbie, so I guess the answer is a resounding no. Sorry, I will read further in the future before I post.

One more christmas junkie from germany :)

Really glad to see there is interest in this! :-) Sorry about the strict rules; its not meant to offend anyone but just because of the size and cost of the swap. :)

Just to clarify it will be at the time of assigning partners whether you meet the requirements or not. So if you don't have 25 type 3 swaps completed yet for example you still have time!

At the moment we have:
- Australia
- Germany
- Chile
- USA
- UK

If anyone is from a Country that's already taken don't hesitate to message me to register your interest. That way if the person signed up from your Country ends up dropping out i can let you know that the spot is open again! Cheers!

Singapore (:

Angie1974 08/ 9/2014 #

Well, I won't hold my breath, because i'm sure someone else from Canada who already qualifies will sign up. I have done a lot of swaps on another site, but unfortunately that doesn't count for anything here. But I do understand the need for the rules.

Germany here too - would be great if you could do another one of this swaps - that I can join. :)

smokeandmirrors 09/ 8/2014 #

Sorry @swapowl i will only be hosting one of these. They are much too time consuming and expensive to do more than one. :)
