Description:

For this swap you will decorate and fill 1 small whimsey jar for 1 partner.

This will be US only due to shipping rates. For sending these a small box or bubble wrap envie will do. While shipping rates differ based on weight and speed my last one was a bit less than $4 for first class shipping with tracking to give you an idea of the shipping cost.

By small jar I am imagining a 4 oz jar which is a stage 2 baby food jar or one like this http://www.amazon.com/Ball-Quilted-Jelly-Canning-Case/dp/B000VTSYA8 - you’ll be amazed how much it holds! Feel free to use any jar you like around this size or larger or add larger items to the package if they don’t fit into the jar if you’re feeling extra generous!

You will have 2 weeks after assigning partners to decorate using paper, stickers, paint, ribbon, buttons, tissue paper, etc. then fill it with witch and wizard supplies!

Everyone choose your Hogwart’s House and your Pet Choice and Post in the Comments!

You will be filling you jar based on the colors of your partner’s House selection along with some handmade/scavenger hunt mandatory items!

Be sure to include:

-Some type of wand (could be a polymer charm, a wooden miniature, a metal ornament, etc)

-The pet your partner has chosen (could be a stuffie, amigurumi, resin figure, keychain, etc)

-A Magical Accessory (could be house color friendship bracelet, polymer clay Radish earrings, a handmade Horcrux necklace, a Time Turner keychain, a handmade resin Death Eater ring, etc)

Other items you put in the jar could include things in your partner’s House Colors or things related to Harry Potter (these can be bought or made):

Stickers

Beads

Embroidery Floss

Glitter

Crystal Balls, Runes

Snakes, Spiders

Quidditch, Snitch

Magical Creature Related Items (Dobby, Fawkes, Nagini, Werewolves, Unicorns, etc)

Feel free to stray from this list as it is mainly a guideline meant for inspiration!

*Pet Choices are Owl, Cat, Rat, or Toad

*House Choices: Griffindor Colors are Scarlet and Gold - Slytherin Colors are Silver and Green - Hufflepuff Colors are Black and Yellow -Ravenclaw Colors are Bronze and Blue

As it is getting very hot in many areas and people have many varying allergies please DO NOT send food items unless your partner gives the go ahead in the comment section! Thanks!

4.9 Rating or higher. No recent 1's or 3's. Newbies allowed with well filled out profiles. I reserve the right to ban users with suspicious activity to protect those that join my swap. Have Fun and Happy Swapping!

For this swap I will choose Slytherin House and a pet Owl! I do have pierced ears and prefer silver jewerly tones if you go that route. No food for me please! Thanks and Happy Swapping!

I choose Hufflepuff House and a cat (my daughter wanted me to do a pygmy puff.... lol....) as my pet. I am ok with anything. Thanks!!

I took about 6 quizzes out of boredom to see any biases and find which one I should "really" be in because of my personality... majority said Gryffindor. So, we shall go with that one, even though I figured more Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw.

So, Gryffindor and owl! (:

I'd prefer no food unless you can guarantee that it's not going to melt or something all over the place.

I'm in Ravenclaw & I choose a rat! And I am just fine with curse-free food stuffs if you choose to send it, but I'm not a fan of Bertie Bott's Beans. ;) More details on my profile if you need more to go on.

This will be fun!!

I am Slytherin and my pet is a cat.

So.. I'll say that I am Ravenclaw and my pet is a cat.
