Description:

The great swap-botter TerryF founded this swap and has been so gracious as to allow me to run with her idea and host this on a monthly basis.

For this swap, you will need go to this site...

http://www.brownielocks.com/february.html

Please choose your 3 favourite bizarre January holidays, and post them in the comments below. You may celebrate the month, week, or day holidays as you wish.

Your partner will then send you something valued at no more than $5, celebrating one of your 3 holidays PLUS a handmade card or postcard with a fabulous holiday greeting.

**If you do not post your 3 holidays below, it will be sender's choice.*** (You do not have to take profile preferences into account unless it is a health issue, e.g., allergies.)

WARNING I beleive that humour comes in very different forms... lighthearted, black, cynical, dry etc. If you are easily offended this swap may not be for you. I would love to see people use their full comedic skills on these projects without any reason to censor themselves.

Because of the low cost of this swap it will be international.

I like to be fair to everyone so will ban after sign-up based on my own assessment of each swapper's record (e.g., ratings, last log-in, forum threads/drama, complete profile, previous contact, type of swaps completed, etc.). This means that you don't necessarily have to have a 5 rating or have been around SB a long time to sign up.

Please contact me with questions!

Happy swapping!

Aaah. so much to look forward to.
