DUE TO THE BAD WEATHER ON THE EAST COAST, I HAVE MOVED THE SEND BY DATE TO THE WEEKEND NOVEMBER 3RD. IF YOU NEED MORE TIME THAN THAT, PLEASE NOTIFY YOUR SWAP PARTNER. THIS IS A LARGE SWAP PLEASE ONLY SIGN UP if you are sure you can follow through! Sorry - no newbees! Must be a Group member in good standing. You must purchase a 24 pocket over the door hanging shoe organizer that will double as doll clothes storage and your 1 pocket a day advent swap. YOU ONLY NEED TO PUT ONE WRAPPED DOLL ITEM IN EACH pocket but it is Senders choice. This way our partner will have something to open each day of advent. You may decorate your "calendar" any way you want. Skippy's mom and I have sourced the holders at TARGET for between $12.99-$19.99 You will have 3 months to work on your swap once it is assigned and you can begin now if you would like. This was the highlight of my Holiday last year. I hope it will be one for you as well. If you are my partner, I am in Canada and I am not yet sure what the shipping by to Canada dates are but if you are going to be sending it later then November 1st deadline I will not likely get it in time for December 1st, Last year both my swaps arrived the first week of December. Not my partners fault just that of our Customs Department.
