ADDED INFO: We are just 4 in this swap, but still send just 6 gifts to each of our 3 partners. Because of all the 6 gifts swaps it won't be a problem getting the "missing" 6 gifts to fill the void in an advent calendar =)

Christmas is here soon! Or not. But December 1st isn't -that- far away (it never is!), and November and December are both busy and expensive, so having advent calendars ready is a good feeling, even when it's still months away =) And of course you are allowed to open your presents at any time you want, so if you are the type of person that just can't wait, you don't have to ;P

The rules are like last year, and the year before that: you will have 4 partners. To each of your partners you send 6 wrapped presents with ribbon on them so they are possible to hang somewhere, either a loop or two loose ends. This way you will have a gift to open every day until Christmas, from 4 different places in the world!

The value of the gifts for this swap should be about 1$US per gift, some can be less and others more, but the total sum to spend on each partner is at least 6$. Do NOT send edibles or other stuff that might melt or go bad anytime soon.

This swap is themed! The theme is swapping necessities =)

Some ideas on what to send:

  • Pens/Pencils
  • Address labels
  • Envelopes (especially hand made/decorated!)
  • Swap cards
  • Note cards
  • Letter sets
  • Small, decorative paper to write messages on
  • Address book
  • Mail themed rubber stamps to decorate envelopes with
  • Unused postage from your partners country
  • Generic postcards (no tourist cards)
  • Nice and sturdy small ziplocks
  • That thing YOU can't do swapping without!

Remember that people can come back in December and change their ratings when the gifts are opened. You are required to rate with a 5 as soon as you get your gifts in the mail, no matter when you are planning to open them!

New of this year is that many of these swaps will be hosted in a group called Advent lovers. Lots of seasoned swappers don't want to swap in public swaps at all, but still want to participate in these swaps. If you want to apply for membership in this group, go to Advent lovers
