Description:

With Autumn nearly upon us (at least here in TN) I thought it would be fun to have a Samhain swap.

For this swap you will make a package for your partner that you'd like to receive. Give them things that you would enjoy using during Samhain/Halloween. Check out their profile & see if they lean more toward the secular side or the more spiritual side or maybe a bit of both.

There is no money amount, but please send your partner At least 5 different items. They can be handmade or purchased. Found treasures or searched for...the choice is up to you, but you may want to take a peak @ their profile to have a few things be to their taste.

Here are some ideas of things to send:

  • Apple cider packets

  • Matchbox Shrine

  • Pretty Poppet or Voodoo doll

  • a "treat" bag filled with goodies

  • A mask

  • a "trick or treat" morsbag

The list could go on & on. This is a Group swap, so please do not join if you have a low rating, recent 1's or any drama associated. I will remove you from the group if you flake on this.

Please check your partner's profile for any allergies or things to avoid. It would be a shame to create a beautiful package of chocolates, leather bags, and spider-themed dolls to find out that your partner is a diabetic that is allergic to any animal products and has arachnophobia.

On mine too! Great idea!

My profile is more on the mundane side, but I'd love to receive magickal items too.

Dawneca 08/27/2009 #

Great! Looking forward to it. Will update my profile soon. My only concern with this swap is that I sometimes don't get things in time to use them at Samhain.

CajunLady 08/27/2009 #

I just wanted to let my potential partner know that I'm more for the spiritual side for Samhain, But most anything is cool with me!!

How I ♥ this time of year. I'd be thrilled with anything having to do with black cats, pumpkins, or the smell of cinnamon. I'm definitely more spiritual...really I'd be happy with pretty much anything. Great swap idea!

TwilightMom 09/ 9/2009 #

Love this idea. This time of year is by far my favorite.. as long as what I get is sent with love and choosen with good intentions I will love it. The colors of fall are the best part!

I'm not able to craft right now...is it okay if all my items are store bought? If so, I'll join up. Thanks!

"but please send your partner At least 5 different items. They can be handmade or purchased."

I think she doesnt mind either way. I will prolly mix it up and have both in my stuff i send.

I have my box all ready to go. But I was wondering what you are meaning by a morse bag. I checked it out on the internet and came up with a cloth bag with various designs. Any info on this would be appreciated. Thanks

Ogma 09/14/2009 #

Thanks, TwilightMom. I hope my partner doesn't mind all store bought items. I'll get some nice stuff. ;-)

I like magical & spiritual but I am happy with anything. I love handmade things but cool purchased goodies are nice too.

oreon 09/16/2009 #

@ladelraven -- yes, a morse bag is basically a cloth bag...but, it's purpose is to hand them out to strangers.:-) It's a fab program that I love to be a part of. www.morsbags.com

Greenwoodtree 09/16/2009 #

Hi there, to my partner, I love traditional Samhain things, but I also celebrate with a ritual gathering...so I go both ways! PLEASE, dont send me scrapbbook stuff or dollar store things. Thank you :-)

Ogma 09/17/2009 #

I am definitely more spiritual regarding this holiday. ♥ Thanks!

Magickspirit51 09/19/2009 #

Please tell me what a Morsbag is?

Magickspirit51 09/19/2009 #

Never mind, I see the answer

Magickspirit51 09/19/2009 #

The Morsbags look cool, but even with the simple instructiions, I wouldn't be able to sew it.

Magickspirit51 09/19/2009 #

Ogma, you are sending to me and I don't mind store bought.:)
