Description:

If you are like me, getting ready to embark on a new year means starting January 1rst with lists, no candy bars, and jogging around the living room! Since I would like to make resolutions I can stick to this year, I decided to create this swap so we can all benefit! For this swap, you will be reading your partner's New Years Resolutions in the comment section, and creativly think up gifts that they would be able to use to reach their goals!

For Example:

Jen's Comment - "This year, my new years reslutions will be:

  • write more penpal letters
  • keep organized
  • bake more
  • take my dog's for more walks
  • expand my stuffie collection"

I get Jen as a partner! I think she will enjoy her:

  • A stationary set
  • A nice day planner
  • Fun Sprinkles
  • a handmade poo-bag holder to attach to a leash
  • A handmade stuffie & a purchased plushie

After you join the swap you will follow these steps:

Step One: comment 5 new years resolutions below. Step Two: Wait for your partner. Step Three: Refer to the comments to see your partners resolutions Step Four: Send them 5 items, one for each resolution they post!

You can post any kind of resolution you want! It is up to your partners to use their creativity to decide what kind of present you will get to help you reach your goals in 2008!

I will set a minimum of $15 for this swap without the postage. This is an international swap, and members with a 4.8+ (newbies who email me first and have their profiles filled out completely) are welcome to join. Everyone should have their profiles fully filled out to join so your partners can check them out to make your package better!
