Description:

Let's do another international profile-based package swap but this time with a Christmas theme! :) As Christmas is coming up in three month and this is a very international group, I thought it would be best to start early so everyone receive their package before Christmas.

Send 3 profile-based Christmas gifts wrapped in Christmas paper to your partner that you think he/she will enjoy. One of the items should be somehow connected to Christmas like a Christmas ornament, Christmas cd, Christmas cookie cutter, Christmas decoration, Christmas sweets ...I think you get the idea. If you send sweets or other edibles please make sure the use by date is in 2016 so it can actually be enjoyed on Christmas!

Take some time reading the profile and finding the perfect gifts for your partner. Please add a Christmas card (bought or handmade) telling a bit about your Christmas tradition and how you spend Christmas. Don't forget to add the swap name and your username as well!

As it is a Christmas swap the total minimum value of all gifts you send should be 15 USD / 13.16 EURO.

Please make sure everything is packed carefully so your partner can enjoy all the wonderful things you are sending :)

To make it bit more challenging please send three different gifts: so no three candies nor three ornaments... This makes it more fun for your partner! It is alright to keep the gifts wrapped until Christmas but please rate your partner as soon as you receive the package.

I will go through the participants before assigning partners and will remove people who I think might be a risk.

As in all of my swaps I will angel if neccessary and you rate your partner with a 1 but I'm sure it won't be with all these great people here in our group! :)

Don't forget to check use by dates if you're sending something edible! No one wants to discover that their beautiful big box of Christmas chocolates is a month out of date!

I would love to do this but it is way too early in the season for me to commit to a swap like this for Christmas. Hopefully someone will host another one in this group as we get closer!

Let me re-state that...the send by date is way too early. This swap with a longer lead time would be great though (say, a mid-November send-by date)!

I hope you will host more of these christmasthemed swaps. I love this idea, but I will not be able to participate this time (but perhaps closer to christmas:))

Yes there will be one or two more Christmas swaps that will be closer to Christmas :)

@hazelwitch3 Thanks for reminding me, I will also add this to the swap description
