Here is something fun. Lets fill a small basket or gift bag or pretty wrapped box with 24 tiny wrapped presents... sort of an advent kinda of thing.. 1 present a day counting down Dec til the 25th.

So 24 small wrapped presents in a bag, box, basket only new please and lets say around $25 before postage.

This is an international swap so we will be mailing early.. I will remove those with low ratings. No rating yet are Welcome

this is exciting. i can't wait to start shopping.

should these be christmas themed? or just any type of tiny present?

zenzhey 10/20/2006 #

I would hope any type of little presents. I am not sure I want 24 little christmas trinket! :-)

RevJenn 10/21/2006 #

It can be any kind of little things.. But make a few Christmasy

PJCrossen 10/21/2006 #

I can hardly wait! What a great idea!!!

Paula 10/21/2006 #

Ohh, this is just too tempting to resist. If I sign up today and do one little present every day for the next 24 days, that won't be so hard, will it?

RevJenn 10/21/2006 #

that sounds like a great plan of attack..LOL

I am almost done with my basket. I did half and half... half christmas related things and half other stuff. I also included a gift for christmas so there is 25 packages all together. Hope my partner likes it :)

Hi, I put a list of things I liked and didn't like in my profile. This should be great fun. I will wait 'til I see who my partner is, so I can hopefully find things they like. Nathalie

Here's some links to my blog and my nervousness intro, I hope I'll get the same kind of links from my partner so I can send them things they'll really like! http://diyods.blogspot.com http://vb.nervousness.org/showthread.php?t=7027&page=15

I was wondering if anyone would like to share some ideas for items that they are thinking about for the exchange?

Some of mine are

Rubber stamps stationary candy tea hot chocolate mix socks stretch gloves

fairykiss 11/ 1/2006 #

I don't want to give too much away, but some ideas are also... candles, potholders, notecards, pens, candy, magnets, lipgloss. Just watch the shipping :) It just cost me somewhere around 40 bucks to send overseas!!

fairykiss 11/ 8/2006 #

I got my package today, just in time to open the first gift, and I got a lovely handmade ornament to hang on my tree! Thank you sooo much. But who sent to me? I can't find a name on it anywhere. And Samantha, did you get yours yet? It should be there by now!!! :D

Paula 12/ 6/2006 #

Michelle, thanks for the big box of fun. JenniLynn, thanks for coming up with this swap. I've been in not too much of a holiday mood lately. Starting the day with opening a present makes it a whole lot better.

cynaemon 12/ 7/2006 #

Hi, Paula, just wanted to let you know that I am so enjoying opening all the little gifties. Thanks again. Nathalie

user3740 12/11/2006 #

I'm pretty sure Misanthropic Sarah and I are kindred spirits... everything so far has been perfect for my tastes and personality. Just perfect. :)
