"Hey! This is a three country!" - Red & Black

Private swap. All invitations have been extended.

Based loosely on the FAA Lucky Parcel swap. The idea is to put together a little parcel of goodies that fit the theme -- this time the theme is "Red & Black."

Parcels may be bags, baskets, any kind of small container you like. Visit the FAA Lucky Parcel site for ideas: http://www.flickr.com/groups/faaluckyparcels/ (The parcels themselves may be homemade or store-bought.) All parcels must include at least one homemade item -- more is better!

Unlike the FAA, the parcels are not based on fabric and notions (although you may certainly include them if you wish). Your may include any sort of fun, whimsical, or yummy goodies such as beads, buttons, small personal goodies (creams & jellies & lipglosses and such), little candies... pretty much anything you can think of that your partners might like.

The idea is to make up wonderful-looking parcels with little prizes and treats and useful bits inside.

As a rough guide, the size of the parcel should be 3 to 6 inches square (however, we're easy... you know that!).

You'll have 3 partners for this swap. Hence the name, "Hey! This is a three country!" You will make up one red-and-black-themed parcel for each partner.
