Description:

The January 2016 Fandom in a Mini Bag swap is Despicable Me/Minions.

Step 1: Please list in the comments your favorite characters, movies, scenes, or any other preference you may have.

Step 2: After partners are assigned, check to see what your partner likes. You can 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 5 different types of items although more is certainly encouraged. (PLEASE try to make it look full). Different types of items means 5 ATCs, 3 pins, 2 postcards would be 10 items but only 3 different types. The swap requirement is for 5 different types in a bag.

Some ideas of themed items: stickers, ATCs, postcards, toys/action figures, comics, note cards, pins/buttons, magnets, jewelry, trading cards, legal music CDs, charms, ornaments, bookmarks, address labels, plushies/stuffies, promo stills/autograph cards, fanfic drabbles/ficlets, etc.

More specific ideas: guide/zine on how to be a good minion, minion name badge/passport, fluffy unicorn, banana recipe, 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 quart (AT LEAST 8.5inches by 7 inches or 21.5cm by 18cm). 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 quart 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 January and please send by the deadline (January 30)

Group rating rules apply. NO FLAKING ALLOWED! Flakers will be banned from any further attempts at helping to take over the world.

I'm super excited about this swap!!! I love the Minions so much! I love handmade items, so anything handmade is cool. I'd love something crocheted or knitted if my partner happens to do either craft. I collect Minion Funko Pops, I already have the Bee-do and King Bob ones. I have every Mcdonald's toy that came out with the 2nd movie and the Minions movie (extras on the first movie set if you need any message me) and I make plushie Minions too.

Minion faves on Etsy just for some inspiration of things that I like.

I prefer not to receive postcards or stickers as I'll never use them. Other than that I'm pretty open to anything Minion related (but I hate bananas, so no recipes or banana smelling items please).

Wow, what a collection, @BennysMumma

I like the Minions in general, though I have only seen DM1 & DM2 as of right now. I think the movies are adorable and hilarious. I have nothing Minion or Despicable Me-related, so I'm open to anything (though I never say no to anything fluffy or soft and hug-able, heehee).
