Description:

One of the fun things about Christmas that we lose as adults is writing out a list for Santa with all of the things we've dreamed about throughout the year. This swap is going to give us the opportunity to regain that joy!

Each participant will list between 3 and 5 wishes in the comments section. The wishes can be anything, so anything goes and creativity is encouraged. We're not looking for a list of items, what we want here are those things that seem out of reach in everyday life. Once partners are assigned you'll use your partners list to find or create 2 gifts inspired by their wishes. For example, if your partner wished for a trip to outer space you could send a rocket ship key chain, something made of galaxy print, or an alien figurine. Partner still bitter about that pony they never got? Send them a plush horse, horse print, or a horseshoe necklace. Is their greatest wish to spend a day living in their favorite book or movie? Send them something inspired by it that a fan would love. The possibilities are endless!

The 2 gifts can be either store bought or good quality handmade and should be wrapped. They should also include a tag with your Swap-bot ID and swap name. Minimum value of the 2 gifts combined is $5 and, even if you choose to wait until Christmas to open your package, please rate your partner when it is received. Also, when creating your list, please use variety in your options so that your partner has plenty to choose from.

The minimum rating to join is 4.98 with no recent or unaddressed 1's or 3's and I reserve the right to ban anyone I feel will jeopardize the safety of the swap and enjoyment of the other participants. Also, if your list has not been placed in the comments section by the time partners are being assigned you will be banned to keep the process from being delayed for the other participants.

  1. To take a month long trip to Ireland with my sisters to meet long distance relatives.
  2. To fly gently over pastures, gardens and beaches, wind in my hair, enjoying sunshine, soft breezes, the colors and smells of the sights.
  3. That I lived as a movie star looking great in the wardrobes, in the 30's to the 50''s and survived the black and white transition to technicolor .
  4. That I am a thin food critic with an endless budget and a flair for writing about food, people and atmosphere in a way that people flock to my recommendations.
  5. That I could change the color of my skin, hair, wardrobe, and environment at will, using the colors of the world to match the mood, artful activity and the sound of the music I am listening to.

  1. Live like a gypsy in a caravan traveling the country and telling fortunes.
  2. Sit around a salt rimmed bird bath filled with margaritas and drink from straws with my friends under the stars and the pale moon light.
  3. To take a magic carpet ride and travel the world visiting exotic places, meeting new friends and speaking foreign languages.
  4. To live in a mansion with marble floors with hot spring pools hosting quilt retreats while servants cater our favorite foods and drinking blackberry wine while never getting fat.
  5. To live by the sea building sand castles, walking along the beach with my papillons and finishing the days with catamaran rides at sun set, feasting on lobster, crab and shrimp drowned in butter with my husband, friends and family, along with reunited family members and friends whom have passed away.

Pooh, a couple of mine are taken...sigh.

1: To travel to the black sea, Istanbul, Morocco, Cappadocia, the Ephesus ruins, Iran. So much history, ruins, exotic and different foods and cultures. Also the Greek islands, Romania, Hungary, and any place else off the beaten track. Blazing my own trail.

2: To be in a drum circle that has thousands of participants from all over the world, drumming in unison and harmony to achieve a higher level of consciousness, and bring about greater understanding and compassion for each other. Peace...

  1. The Gypsy in me yearns for a boho chic wardrobe of beautiful silk tunics, scarves, flowing skirts, tapestries, and many bracelets to jingle on my arms. Grin.

4: Would love to have the funding to start and sustain a ranch/Sanctum for abandoned, mistreated, forgotten, misfit animals...where they could live out their lives in peace

5: To be able to retire and persue all the books, arts and crafts, photographing and hiking I wanted...and visit my children, and not worry if I'll have enough.

  1. To be able to eat all of the chocolate with nuts or peanut butter I want and not gain a pound. I am a chocoholic and Christmas time with all of the different home made chocolate candies is an awesome dream.

  2. An ornate treasure chest full of, coins, jewels, vintage relics and gold.

  3. I would love to have a romantic trip to an exotic beach and maybe renew my wedding vows. A Beach vacation has always been a dream of mine. Sad thing is I have never traveled outside of the US.

  4. Like several above, I love the Gypsy Boho look and would love to have all the lovely, flowing silky attire in my wardrobe. Ahhh... I can feel the luxury of it now.

  5. A black stallion horse with the feel of silky velvet, and a long flowing tail and main. I can fantasize it now: me riding through the starlit night sky with total abandon.
