Description:

I ran a swap last year to celebrate Yule/the Winter Solstice so think it is only right that we also celebrate the Spring Equinox! This could be seen as an alternative for those who don’t celebrate a traditional Easter (or for those who celebrate both!).

So, you will send your partner a package of goodies with a Natural World theme. Value should be approximately Ă‚ÂŁ5-7/$7-9 in total. It is nice to wrap the gift in some way, but this is not essential.

Some ideas on what you could send;- notebook, pens, jewellery, washi tape, magnets etc. It can be made up of several smaller items, or one large.

The equinox falls on the 20th March, so obviously you want to get your gift to your partner by then, so I am setting send by date as 26th February. The gifts are senders choice, which means you can start shopping/creating straight away. If the gift you receive is not to your personal taste, then please still be kind to your partner and receive it with the spirit of the season in mind!

You can use your imagination a little on this, but all items should somehow relate to spring.

Some ideas on spring items are;- flowers, butterflies, baby birds, baby anything!, trees full of blossom.

Group swapping rules apply, but I reserve the right to remove anyone I feel may be cause for concern. Please PM me or comment below with any questions/comments etc.

Hi Zoe! This is a lovely idea for a swap as always :)

Just a small thing... in the 3rd paragraph you say it can be several smaller items or one large, then in the 5th that you should send at least 5 items related to spring, so in that case one large item wouldn't cut it!

I don't mind which - it won't affect whether I sign up - but it might be good to clarify :)

Thank you @HelloWheeze - I was obviously having a bit of a "moment" when I typed that!!!

I have removed the line about at least 5 items - I think that gives people more options!

I am sad to report that I need to drop from this swap. Things got chaotic right now & I cannot give my best at this time. Hope you understand.

@zoev1975 Ahhh, I just realised I missed the sign-up deadline for this swap - I really didn't mean to nit-pick and then not join, sorry! I like to leave it til the last minute to make sure I'm not taking on too much... so I guess this was a sign that maybe it was too much. Enjoy the swap and I hope to be in another one sometime soon!
