Description:

I saw this swap but it was only for USA and CANADA and thought it would be nice to do it for EUROPE only as that would mean you could spend more on the present and less on the postage =)

Swap : To join this swap your birthday must fall between 1st of December and 31st of December. Remember to look on the profile for the birthday of your swapper or if not shown to message them straight away.

You must send 1 gift to each of your two partners, spending around £5 (whatever the € equivalent of that is). Please do check the persons profile for ideas and buy something you would like to receive. Home made or shop bought. Even message them some questions but don't ruin the surprise =)

Requirements : Must be wrapped (try and be arty and make it pretty)

Please make sure you package it well so it isn't damaged in post. (HINT - writing fragile on the package actually does work, they treat it better no matter whats in it)

I can't angel this swap.

4.8 or higher, newbies with complete profiles. December birthdays swappers only.

Depending on your partners birthday, get it out before.

My birthday is the 7th of December and I'm turning 20 years old =D!

Hi everyone! Being born on the 24th of December, I just couldn't resist joining this swap! I hope we'll be enough to make it work - the more the merrier - but at the same time, a small group is more intimate!

As for my age, I'm a bit sensitive about it, I'm turning 29 this year, and it's a huge deal for me... So, I'll need some cheering up!! ;o)

Thinking, thinking - ok, I´ll be 24 on December 25th, so this is a swap for me, too ;-) I´m a newbie, but you´ve got to start somewhere and this one will be my first swap on swapbot. I hope that´s ok.

I brought my presents to the postoffice yesterday, and I´m really upset about postage here in Germany. I wanted to make both presents a big letter which would have ment 4€ each. I really looked at the website carefully before preparing my swap, to keep postage as low as possible and there was only said no side should be longer than 60cm. But at the postoffice they told me it´s more than 5cm thick (only some mm), so it is a package which ment 8.60€ each one. So it´s 6€ inside and 8.60€ for stamps. This doesn´t make swaps like this one a big fun!

Poor Roxane! I understand how frustrating it is! Here in France the only specification is that it must be under 2 kgs to pass as a letter, even if it is a small box! But it does depend on the person you see at the post office, some are nicer than others and will get you the cheapest but surest postage there is, whereas others don't even bother!

Anyway, bought some things today. I hope it's OK that there are several presents! ;o)

Received both my presents today! I opened the enveloppes but not the presents... I can hardly wait for the 24th! ;o)

Thank you soooo much!
