Description:

Hello! After participating in my first swap (Springtime Blythe Swap), I decided it would be really cool to do a summer vacation-themed swap.

This swap is newbie-friendly (since I am a newbie myself) and is international.

For this swap, you must write down (in the comments section) your Blythe's (or Pullip's) name, species, and country/city or summer activity she (or he) would like to visit or have a dream-vacation there/do. Everyone will have one partner, so you don't have to worry about making multiple outfits.

Partners will send an outfit of traditional dress from that country or outfit one wears to a particular summer activity from their Blythe to your Blythe. For example, if your Blythe's dream vacation is Hawaii, you could send a traditional luau outfit (maybe a coconut-style bra!). If your Blythe likes to take picnics, then your partner could send you a summer outfit, a picnic basket, blanket, and other picnic goodies! I would prefer if these outfits were home-made (since it would probably be cheaper), but something bought is fine too.

Also, please send some accessories and a Blythe-sized postcard (can be easily made from cardstock on a computer) for your partner's girl.

I think this will make a REALLY cute swap!

Yay for Blythe Swaps!

My Velvet Minuet, Gretchen, will be participating in this swap. She is a risquee kind of girl and hopes to go to Las Vegas for her summer vacation!!

The very proper Sydney (a birdie blue) will be taking part in this one...she has always dreamed of visiting France and buying a fancy Parisian dress, a beret, and of course lots of baguettes!

Adorable idea!

Verdie (customized Mod Molly) will be participating, her dream vacation is Tokyo- she has become quite a fan of Japanese Street Fashion and wants to go shopping there ^__^

My Princess a la Mode, Sophie, would love to visit France- especially live like Marie Antoinette at the palace in Versailles!

Indigo (Cancan Cat) hasn't been as fortunate as my other girls, and has never travelled. She dreams of a beautiful and lazy trip to Kyoto, perhaps to view the Cherry Blossoms, or to feed the koi around the palace. She would got to Gion and get dressed up in Kimono and pretend to be a maiko for a day!

My cute and cheeky White Magic Morning, Millefeuille dreams of going on a backpacking trip across Europe, especially Italy, to get lost in the cities, ride a scooter and of course, to indulge in her authentic Italian foods cravings including pizza and gelato!

I just need a clarification before signing up: do you send items from you own Blythe's choice vacation, or your partner's Blythe's choice vacation?

ksclowbrass212 06/ 9/2008 #

You send items from your partner's chosen location (including a blythe-sized postcard).

Also, if anyone wants a particular partner, please contact me. My email is [email protected]

Ivy, my Rainy Day Parade, has always wanted to visit exotic Egypt and dreams of floating down the Nile like Cleopatra on her barge, and gazing at the pyramids.

hmmm how to chose a girl to participate. I just adopted a star dancer and named her London, so I think that she would be fun to be in this swap. London isn't british, but would love to visit her namesake city someday. She has a thing for Double Deckers, Tea, British Boys, and Top Shop. She truely loves all things British and would have the Union Jack Tattooed on her bum if I Would let her.

my Isabella can't wait....she has been wanting to go on vacation for some time. She has a tendency to want to go on vacation to locations in time periods she daydreams about. Like Ireland during the Middle Ages; or France during the French Revolution. Isabella is very adventurous and is able to have fun no matter where (or what time period) she is dressed for! :)

Kizmet, my Dal Sooni, loves watching Bollywood movies with their brightly colored outfits! She would love to be a part of it, maybe even do a little belly dance!

Millie 06/20/2008 #

Not a newbie, but I think this swap has a really sweet theme.

My black Bythe, LaTaquarelle, hopes to spend her summer volunteering at an AIDS organization in South Africa.

I just realized that swap-bot automatically picks out your partner. Sorry to those who wanted a specific person- keep your fingers crossed!

Maddy 06/23/2008 #

Hello, I am Maddy from Australia. Jazz is my adventurous Honey Bunny ( you can see some of her adventures on my flickr.) I think she would be happy to visit the place where my partner lives, and learn a bit about her side of the world. Footnote: Australian quarantine rules are very strict, to protect our country. So if unsure, please message me, I would be sad if items are not allowed in!

pixelkitty 06/29/2008 #

I've started putting together my package for my appointed swap person. I do hope they like all things japanese! As their girl might be trying sushi for the first time!

:)

pixelkitty 06/29/2008 #

Oh I just realised I'm meant to send my Partner's dream vacation, not mine.

Now that's a challenge! I'm off to see what I kind find!

pixelkitty 07/ 7/2008 #

I posted my swap package last week, I hope my partner has it by now!

pixelkitty 07/30/2008 #

I haven't received my swap items yet - how long should I wait?

Maddy 08/ 1/2008 #

I put on the gallery a pic of the parcel I sent afflictedmuse, for which I havent been rated yet. I also notice she hasnt logged in sine June 28, or sent her partners parcel.

I hope she enjoys what I sent her.

pixelkitty 08/16/2008 #

I just gave my swap partner negative rating, because even though she emailed me to say she would send something, it was more than a month ago and nothing has arrived.

For my first swap, it was disappointing.

Lets hope the next one goes better!

How do you feel about renting a car for a vacation in Hawaii? I think it's cool and gives you more freedom. When I was in Honolulu, I rented a car on the website and made my vacation much more colorful by traveling around the city and reaching places outside of it
