Christmas in a matchbox

Hello everyone! This is an international swap open to all swappers in good standing (I will check and ban those with unresolved 1s and 3s - if you have a very good reason for these please message me before the sign-up date closes). Newbies and unrated swappers welcome AS LONG AS YOUR PROFILE IS FILLED OUT - what does this mean? At least three paragraphs on who you are, your hobbies, life, likes and dislikes. You also need to have been logged in the day before the sign-up ends - this just makes it easier for me to know that you're active and not a flaker.

For this swap you will decorate a matchbox in a Christmas theme and add a small profile based surprise inside it. You can add some pretty ribbon to the matchbox so that your partner can hang it from their tree (like the picture above) or make it into a tiny present box for under the tree, or anything else you like as long as it Christmas themed.

Please make sure the little present inside is profile based and something more thoughtful than just a bunch of stickers. You can decorate the inside too, if you have space. Add a little note to your package with your swap ID, the swap name and a Christmas greeting.

This swap needs to be sent out by the 30th of October. Because it is international and airmail post can take long, especially at this time of year, I'm giving eight weeks travelling time just to make sure we all get our little prezzies in time for Christmas!

If you want to wait until after you've opened your matchbox at Christmas time to rate then please message your partner beforehand to let them know that you have received their swap - so that they don't stress.

This is my first time hosting a swap but I will check the comments section below and answer any messages sent to me. I will angel, if need be, but only after you have contacted your partner.

Thanks! I hope we all have a lot of fun sending and receiving!
