Hello everyone! Back for it's third year, the 25 Day Christmas Advent Calendar, is meant to embody fun and the holiday spirit! The goal is to make 25 days of goodies for your partner, loosely inspired by Mochibujo's video Here. Her swap partner, Cat'sPlanner, also has a video that can be found Here. Items in this swap should be new or gently used as well things from your stash with one "big" profile based gift on the 25th day worth at least $5 (check profiles for wishlists etc if you need ideas! - On the same hand, please make sure you have your profile well filled out!) It's okay to go big here! Don't be constrained by these price points or ideas. This is supposed to be fun and in the spirit of giving. I only put any of this here as a baseline for those who need some direction! I fully intend to destash this year! Please just have fun! This is USA only (sorry!), but keep in mind shipping cost - USPS Flat Rate small sized boxes measuring 8-5/8" x 5-3/8" x 1-5/8" are currently $11.00 to ship from my area- and keep your surprises as flat as possible when wrapping! Speaking of which, make sure that each days packet is wrapped nicely and at least a little decorated, but it doesn't have to be in Christmas aesthetic like in the video. If you'd rather do something based on your partners profile or your own aesthetic feel free so long as it's nothing that could be offensive to your partner! Just make it special so they are excited to open it every day! Below is a list of things that I could think of to send, but read your partner's profile and make decisions based on that if you can! Please do not send more than 2 of the same types of things for your partner. As an example, no more than two days of washi tape samples cards or sticker flakes that way everyone gets a variety of things. 5 wax seals (handmade) 2 sticker sheets 10 sticker flakes Postcards Pretty Scrap Papers (no smaller than 4x6”) Scrap Ribbon (12+ inches) Notecard + Envelope 10 Pieces Paper Ephemera (think ticket stubs etc) 4 Shaped Paper Clips Candy Christmas Ornament (New/Handmade) Washi Roll Memo Sheets Wax Stamp Head (New/From Stash) Sketch/ATC Die Cuts (Store Bought/Handmade) Stamped Images Pen/Pencils Cling or Wooden Stamps (New/From Stash) 2 Tea Bags (if your partner likes that) Assorted Playing Cards Something Local to You (Think Postcards or Flattened Pennies) Fabric Scraps/Sari Silk Vintage Book Pages Profile Based Gift (Worth $5+) Anything extra you send is up to you! Priority mail is sometimes slow, so be kind to your partner. If you have any questions please reach out. Happy swapping! :) |
