Description:

I've seen many different "advent calendar" type swaps here. So, I thought I'd see if there is any interest in doing a private one. I'm not comfortable starting this as a public swap (it's as in depth as a journal swap, and they don't seem very successful when they are public.) I will have the time and opportunity to do a few of these, so please PM me if you are interested.

The Idea

You would create a package of 31 envelopes for your partner to enjoy throughout the month. Each envelope would be decorated and numbered and would include a something to read (quote, note, article, etc.) and a tuck-in. Each will be profile based, so this will be a very special package for your partner.

I would assume the value would be around $25 and VERY time intensive.

Items can be new, used, re-gifted, handmade, or from your stash... providing they are usable, clean, etc.

We could also do a parent/child calendar, or family calender if that is more interesting.

Requirements

I would ask that anyone who'd like to do this be an experienced swapper in good standing (or, at least, have an understandable reason for poor ratings.)

Ideally, my partner would have several package swaps completed and rated well.

I would know them reasonably well, or they would be willing to get to know each other.

If a newbie would like to do this, I would ask that you send first and then once I receive your package, I will create one for you (this will take some time.)

A very well filled out profile will be necessary for this swap. My envelopes can contain anything on my wishlist for any family member.

We would have a lot more fun if we had a lot in common.

In Closing

Well, I'm hoping to find a few partners that would enjoy this type of thing. If I've neglected any considerations or you have any questions, post or PM me, please. :)

Happy Swapping.

I copied and pasted from the original thread. If any changes need to be made, please let me know! ;) What other details do we need to include?

I have marked this as "sent" so you can cancel this swap dear - I have also saved a copy of it for future reference. (";)

I really appreciate your willingness to cancel this swap due to my life issues. Thank you so much!
