I just had an idea for a Christmas swap that more people could participate in, that requires a bit of thought and preparation, but shouldn't be too expensive to ship. If there isn't much interest, I can delete it. So, for this swap, you will pull together 25 Christmas-y/holiday recipes for your partner (please do not request specific recipes, but if you have dietary restrictions you can post those). They can be for any type of thing, but should be something you would usually only prepare for the holidays. So, eggnog, rum punch, special party mix, etc. Once you have found the recipes you want to use, you will either handwrite or print them out onto some sort of nice medium. Holiday themed recipe cards would be fine, as would handmade recipe cards, or even a cute "altered book" of the recipes. The only requirement is that you do not just write or print them out onto regular paper. The either need to be decorated cards or in a little book or journal, etc. Basically, send what you would like to receive. You can go above and beyond by adding additional embellishments, decorations, etc, but that is not required. To get a 5, you need to send at least 25 holiday themed recipes on either store bought or handmade recipe cards, or in a little recipe "book". Since this should not be very heavy, I am making it international. This is listed as a craft and package swap even though there are not any actual crafts required, because it is a bit time intensive. You do need to pull together the recipes and either print or copy them onto your desired medium. However, it should not be a very long drawn out thing, so hopefully it won't become too stressful for everyone. I'm making this one due by early November in case anyone wants to start using the recipes for the Thanksgiving holiday. And also to avoid any stress during the official holiday season. Since this does require a bit of a commitment, you must have a rating of at least 4.8 with at least 5 snail mail type swaps. Sorry newbies, but maybe you'll be able to get enough swaps under your belt by then. No no-sends in past 6 months, or 3s in the past 3 months. If you have extenuating circumstances, PM me. Happy holidays and let's have fun! |
