Description:

I hosted this swap last year, and enjoyed it so much I wanted to host it again this year. :) It is slightly different than last year, so read carefully. Please join if you can!

It won't be long before Fall settles in, with chilly days and spooky nights leading up to Halloween.

In this swap we will either create or alter a spooky Halloween themed drawstring pouch, at least 6inx4in in size or larger, to hold our 5 "potions" and 2 yummy treats. Along with this, we will include 4 spookylicious Halloween recipes for our partners to try, placed inside a Halloween greeting card. Details are below.

POTIONS- inside the pouch you will place 5 yummy "potions" such as tea, coffee, instant cocoa, instant cider, Crystal Light packets, etc. You MUST send a variety, so send at least 3 different drink types in the pouch, for example: 1 cocoa, 1 coffee, and 3 teas would include 3 different drinks types and still include 5 potions for us to sip and enjoy. :) (Please put naked teas or unwrapped tea bags in sealed plastic baggies before putting them in the pouch so they stay fresh and sanitary.)

TREATS - you will also put in two edible treats/snacks inside your pouch. Things like tea biscuits, biscotti, flavored nuts, trail mix, granola bars, pretzels, cookies, popcorn, popcorn balls, etc. No candy this time unless they are extras you want to send along. (Treats must be manufacturer sealed.)

RECIPES - you will send 4 Halloween recipes inside a Halloween card. You can print these out and fold them up if you want, or you can write them on spooky recipe cards, or just write out the recipes on paper. Just don't write them in the card because the recipes probably won't fit. Card can be bought or handmade, please be sure to write your Swap-Bot name and swap info inside the card.

Overview: 1 handmade or altered Halloween themed drawstring pouch size 6inx4in or larger, 5 drinks/potions, 2 treats, 4 Halloween recipes placed inside 1 Halloween card.

Sender's choice, but please check your partner's profile for allergies! You can start making/altering your pouch now to save time. :)

I have the right to ban anyone from the swap that seems suspicious.

Hope everyone enjoys this swap and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

A note for the treats: I didn't want to place this directly in the swap, but wanted to share with everyone that they make Halloween themed little bags of pretzels, bags of microwavable popcorn, bags of gourmet popcorn, etc that are supposed to be used to hand out to Trick-or-Treaters, which is a fun alternative to candy. These are great options of the treat part if you are interested.

I HATE candy corn. I know this is senders choice but UGH! It's nasty.
