AFTER JOINING: PLEASE PROVIDE IN THE COMMENT SECTION BELOW A WISHLIST OF (AT LEAST) 5 ITEMS YOU WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE IN YOUR XMAS BOX.

This is our first Christmas themed swaps and we really wanted to make it special!

You will pick up a small box (you can also do yourself) in which you're going to send at least 3 of your (1) partner wishes PLUS a gift surprise you'll choose after reading their whole profile. You need to warm it up wrapping all your gifts in a cool Christmas paper! Also you'll ADD some treats - like chocolate, candies or whatever you think your partner would love to receive- according to their likes and special needs. In the end, you'll write your Christmas greetings to your partner on a store-bought card including the name of the swap and your Swap-bot ID.

TO RESUME: You'll be rated 5 as long as your box contains A MINIMUM OF 4 PRESENTS (3 FROM WISHLIST + 1 SURPRISE) WRAPPED FOR CHRISTMAS, CHOCOLATE OR TREATS AND A STORE-BOUGHT CARD.

Some clarifications:

  • The budget for this swap is not less than 10€ not including the shipping fees. Any extra is up to you.

  • All the items must be NEW and store-bought (if you're going to buy something online, make sure you'll easily respect the send-out deadline);

  • If you want to send some extra handmade you're allowed to, but don't consider that as part of the budget or a point on the gift list. If you'll miss something you should be rated as a 3 so keep that in mind.

  • The box should contain your gifts properly, according to its total weight and your post office requirements. You can also decorate it for Christmas, warming up your partner's mailbox!

  • While wrapping the presents, consider that your partner may will be expecting to put them under the Christmas tree: *"take your time and put your all efforts in everything you do**. (You can find a plenty of ideas easy to make on sites like Pinterest)

  • You have all the time to make this swap unforgettable. Any questions you have, don't hesitate to ask to your partner! Sometimes this really make the difference.
