Description:

Towel Day is almost upon us, and whether you're a fan of Douglas Adams or not, we can all celebrate with this swap.

You will be sending 1 partner a fresh, new kitchen towel. Any nice kitchen towel will do, we won't get too specific except to say that there's no need to send a novelty towel and it shouldn't be so bulky that it won't ship easily in a small to medium mailer, and please don't buy a crappy towel from the dollar store made of cheap thin fabric with dodgy stitching.

Wrap a little surprise for your partner in the towel. Value of the surprise should be between $2 - $5 US dollars.

Towel and surprise are senders choice. Please send something thoughtful to your partner. But remember partners: you are rating on receiving a new towel and a surprise ... rate fairly even if you receive something that doesn't suit your tastes.

DON'T FORGET to include a note with your vitals: username / group / swap name.

Towel Day is May 25. It celebrates the works of Douglas Adams and is a reference from his Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

What a great swap idea! My hubby is jealous of all the cool swaps hosted in this group. :-)

I'd love to join but I already found another towel swap to join, awww :( - not as brilliant as this swap, actually! haha!

Would it be okay if I altered my towel in order to make it more of a Towel Day towel than just a regular towel? The alteration will not degrade the towelness of the towel (I don't want to give anything away here).

I think that's a great idea @user2637. I've seen towels that you can purchase specifically for towel day, but I'd never ask anyone here to seek out something like that, so your idea works perfectly!

sweet! :) I've seen the towels for purchase too, but they are expensive. I wish I had a sewing machine that did embroidery. Alas.
