Description:

The December 2014 Fandom in a Bag swap honors the holiday season and is a mix of your favorite fandoms. You can use this as a makeup swap if you missed a fandom we've already covered or you can just join and geek out over all your favorite fandom goodness.

Step 1: Please list in the comments your favorite fandoms that you'd like to receive items for in a bag. Remember, your swap partner might not know your fandom too well, so listing specifics is a GOOD idea!

Step 2: After partners are assigned, check to see what your partner likes. PLEASE follow-up with a message if you need to know more. Then scrounge up, buy, and/or create items that fit in a bag. Your bag must contain at least 7 different items although more is certainly encouraged (please try to make it look full). You can include items from all your partner's favorite fandoms, just a few, or just one fandom, as long as you include at least 7 different items.

Some ideas of themed items: stickers, ATCs, postcards, toys/action figures, comics, note cards, pins/buttons, magnets, jewelry, trading cards, charms, ornaments, books, bookmarks, address labels, postcards, plushies/stuffies, promo stills/autograph cards, fainfic, zines, soundtracks, etc.

Be sure to check your partner's profile so you don't send anything he or she might be allergic to.

Step 3: Put the items in a ziplock-type bag. Size: 1 gallon (measures about 10 inches by 11 inches or 28cm by 26.5 cm). You can decorate the bag or incorporate the bag into something (mount it or sew something around it). If you want to make or buy a bag instead of using a ziplock plastic one, that's fine as well, but it should be at least a gallon in size. All items you gather or create should fit into the bag (if a couple are too big, that's fine).

Assemble your bags during the month of December and please send by the deadline (December 31).

Group rating rules apply. NO FLAKING ALLOWED!

kiddomerriweather 11/21/2014 #
  • The Walking Dead: I'm more into the comics than I am the show, but I love them both. I'm caught up on reading the comics, so there are none I need and I don't collect variants or anything. I'm a Rick fan all the way in both the comic and on the show. I also love Daryl (show), Tyrese (both), Andrea (comic), Maggie (both), Glen (both), Michonne (both), Abe (both), Carl (comic), really I like all the characters except Lori and Shane whom I hate with a passion.

  • LOST: I am obsessed with everything about the show, so you can't go wrong, but some of my favorite themes are: polar bears and fish biscuits, Ben Linus, Bunny 8, and the Dharma Initiative of course.

  • King of the Hill: Luanne is my favorite character and I loved Brittany Murphy, the late actress who provided her voice. I love all the characters though. Lucky is also a favorite character. I love all the brands like Alamo Beer, Strickland Propane, Sugarfoot's, etc.

  • Disney: Maleficent, Ursula, Ariel, Alice, Mickey ears, Minnie Mouse, Disney World, The Haunted Mansion ride (I just got back from Disney World. I used to not like Disney at all, but now I'm in love).

  • Star Wars: I have a Chewbacca collection. I also like Boba Fett, R2D2, Han Solo, and Jawas.

I love t-shirts. I wear an XL Unisex or Men's t-shirt. I love urban vinyl figures, pinback buttons, lapel/enamel/trading pins, plushies, well made handmade items, socks (shoe size 9), keychains, stationery, ink pens, Teesha Moore inspired patches. The important thing is to have fun putting the package together. :)

Oh oops I forgot to post what items I'd like to receive as well :) if my partner would like to look here: I'm an extra small/small in t-shirts, love plushies, fabric, cross-stitch or sewing patterns or completed projects, earrings, books, comics, Zines, socks, pens, art, handmade items of course, only thing I'm not big on is the pin back button things only because I have a toddler who loves to stick them to himself...lol!

I've been to nervous to join these fandom bag swaps, but I'm dying to do it, so here goes: I'm crazy for well-made handmade stuff, store bought stuff is good too, but don't feel panicky if you can't find anything to buy :) I collect fandom Teesha Moore patches and ATCs...I love all size and shapes of pouches, clay figures, wood carvings, metal/wire sculptures (little of course), bookmarks, plushies, really anything. I have a pinterest link on my profile where you can find a board for wishes and more TV/Movie inspiration. Feel free to message me any questions.
