13 Days of Halloween Swap

this seems cool..is there a money limit or just whatever?

Fun swap!

What about food items (chocolate, candy, etc.)?

SUCH a fun idea! I will be watching this one.

wow lots of great questions, lets see if I can answer everyone :)

As for money limit, I would say that $15-$20 on the entire swap would be fair although you could make most of the items and save money. Usually with a swap like this I try to spend $1-$2 on the days leading up to the big day then $5 on the last day but some days you might spend more than that and some days less but to average it out $15-$20 seems fair

As for food items I think that a mix of food treats and non food would be perfectly fine. I usually look at my partners profile for an idea of what candys they like. On a swap like this I might do 1/3 candy and food treats and 2/3 non food items. I usually try to send a mix of items so that hopefully if they don't care for one or two items they still get a ton of things they like.

I hope that this gives you a few ideas and answers some of your questions. Please feel free to ask me if you have more questions or please post ideas of your own or likes/dislikes!

Watching til closer to sign up =D!!!

I'm watching this also!!!

Ok, I'm in :)

Re: food items, nothing with cherries (dislike) and nothing with PEANUTS or coffee (severe allergies). Everything else is good!

Nothing with coconut or mushrooms (deathly allergic)

I'm so excited for this swap! I've already started collecting gift items.

Fantastic idea! I love halloween but we don't have it in Australia so it will be great to get to celebrate. So glad I managed to get 20 swaps done in time!

I have been planning and preparing since I started this swap and I am so excited! I hope that my partner likes everything :)

Hi! My halloween likes are fabric, cat costumes (my cat has a penguin hat and shirt), zombies, cat ears, feline related things. I cannot have any candy that is hard or chewy. And please no chocolate its a bit too warm still. Above all please please nothing with spiders or about spiders....

If its on my profile I'll love it XD

Thanks!!

I'm pretty easy, and I'll love anything I'm sent...

But for things I like alot, the gory horror stuff, dark humor, gothy stuff, things that I can use for my "dark Christmas" decor as well, alot of my faves are on my profile.

If they are REALLY kick arse they's bump other items for show space, but I'm VERY short on shelf space, so items that can't hang or be hung may not get a chance to be displayed (:^Z)

Um...and kitchen table display items (decor bowls, table center pieces, place mats)....we don't set the table, so they end up staying in boxes too (I appreciate them, but never have the occasion to use them).

Also, our wedding is August7, 2010...and while I didn't get to have a Halloween wedding...I am having a darker decorated wedding. Any dark but classy decor would be uber appreciated! The glass spray garlands...even if you have one left over from some other event in black, red, opal/iridescent, or silver...that'd be very useful. Or items that can be used in gift bags, or as decor pieces on the dessert or candy table.

Hmm...I can't think of much else to help out....but honestly, whatever you choose to send....ah! I love Halloween! It'll all be wonderful :^)

this swap will be great i think

My house is all Vintage Halloween Themed doesn't have to be vintage but vintage Looking is Perfect too. Nothing gory and No books. I don't read much.Halloween card making supplies are cool too

i am open to anything. i love halloween, baking, scrapping, cardmaking etc. i am open to anything!

i'm not very into gore. everything else is great :)

ihave a lot information in my profile..but for adding more..love black cats, tarot, moons, stars, bats................i would like some store things too...because here is a not reconounce party and is difficult to find things.
