Description:

The March 2013 Fandom in a Mini Bag swap is the Pirates of the Caribbean fandom (by popular vote).

Step 1: Please list in the comments your favorite characters, moments, movies, etc.

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 items although more is certainly encouraged to make your bag look full of goodies.

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

More specific ideas: an aged handdrawn map of the Caribbean, mini treasure chest full of what you consider to be treasure, jar of dirt, Davy Jones key keychain, sword fighting tutorial/tips, jolly roger flag, ship in a bottle, art with seashells

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 (roughly 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 March and please send by the deadline (April1--no fooling!).

Group rating rules apply. NO FLAKING ALLOWED! All flakers will be sent down to Davy Jones' locker.

Captain Jack Sparrow & Will Turner are my favorite characters by far (I like Elizabeth, Barbossa, Davy Jones, the monkey, Norrington, Cotton, Murtogg, Mullroy, Poochie, but Jack and Will rock my world). And the first movie is my favorite, hands down. I've seen it dozens of times (3 times in theaters when it came out)--the others less so, though I do like them a lot and enjoy the fandom as a whole. I own the fourth movie and haven't even watched it yet! But I'm planning on marathoning all four when I start crafting for this swap to get me in the mood, so no worries about spoilers.

I own all the PotC LEGO sets (I never say no to LEGO bricks, I'm just saying I probably don't need another Black Pearl LEGO set). I'd love a neat-looking compass and/or old-looking map!

Captain Jack Sparrow, Elizabeth, Will Turner are my favourites (though, really, I love all of the characters :) ). The third movie is my favourite. And the scene I love most, out of all the movies, is Jack taunting Davy Jones with the jar of dirt. I'm not a fan of LEGO. In my house, it'd end up all over the floor and I'd probably step on it. Ouch! Not fun. Anything homemade, or old keys, would be really awesome to receive :)
