Description:

For this swap you'll have 1 partner and send them something for a celebration of the holiday he / she picked from FEBRUARY LIST OF BIZZARE, SILLY, CRAZY, UNKNOWN HOLIDAYS AND OBSERVANCES!


Here is how we'll do it:

  • visit february list of holidays page and pick a holiday to celebrate

  • leave comment here stating which holiday you celebrate

  • when you get assigned with a partner send them small wrapped gift (app. 3 €) and a card related to holiday they celebrate

For this swap, good quality handmade items are acceptable. This swap is senders choice but you should check your partner's profile for dislikes so you don't end up sending them something they would hate.


Anyone can join only flakers are not welcome, though I believe I don't have to say that ...

Any questions are welcome, send me a PM or comment here!

If there is a good response, we'll do this swap monthly. After all, it's always good to have fun and celebrate! :)

Happy February holiday and happy swapping!

I will celebrate "World Nutella Day" and "National Wedings Month"

Tho if my partner can think of sth about "Return the carts to the supermarket" or "pull your sofa Off the wall" months I'd prefer it! But I know it's challenging!

I will celebrate: "Wear Red Day" and "the Day the Music Died"

If they seem hard, I am going to celebrate "Random Acts of Kindness Week" as well :)

Ah, there are so many good days in such a short month... I would like to celebrate Open That Bottle Night (hopefully, no glitter bottle is meant) or Inconvenience Yourself Day.

But to be honest, I really will celebrate Shrove Tuesday with pea soup, whipped cream buns, and hopefully downhill sledding (if weather will be slightly more wintery by that time).

(Maybe the swap description could be changed stating at once that at several/certain number of holidays must be chosen, because nobody seems to follow the "pick a holiday" anyway...)

@pahasiga I think it's OK. ;) For some holidays it would be pretty hard to find anything so having an alternative option is a good thing :)

I was going to suggest that too. I admit I am the bad seed, that started the "if you can't this, pick that". But I really think that some partners-countries can find some stuff easier than other or not. So it's better to have a list of 4-5 (just to give some alternatives and not make our partner's life hard!
