Since the Winter swap was such fun & most everyone has gotten their gifts (a few stragglers but that’s due to the post office and not the forum members) it’s time to start the Spring Swap! We decided it would be best to have something to look forward to in between Valentine’s & Easter so here it is! Please pay attention to the schedule; I’ve given people almost a month to sign up so hopefully everyone that wants to take part in this sees this topic in time. 😉
I have changed some of the information & questions so please read it through & send your current answers!
What it is: If you enlist, your name gets thrown into a hat. You will receive the name of one person, and someone else will receive your name. Your goal is to put together a small care package for that person. Letters, candles, incense, chocolate, bath goodies, foodie goods, craft-store finds, etc. Something nice to brighten his or her day. You might even get a new friend out of the deal.
Timeline:
January 4th, 2010 — Sign-ups open
January 31, 2010 — Sign-ups close
February 1, 2010 — Swapper notifications
February 15, 2010 — The last day to notify me of a back-up need
March 1, 2010 — Last Day to put packages in the mailGeneral Guidelines:
— All US domestic packages MUST have shipping confirmation/a tracking number.
— It is suggested you include at least 3 items in your package if you are geting smaller gifts; if you wish to send one large item that is fine too.
— General price range will be $25 – $35 total spent on gift items, though if you’d like to invest more, that’s fine. And $25 is not a mandatory minimum that you have to spend– if you’re good at crafts or you have a knack for finding thrift store treasures, that’s cool, too.
— Please, please, do not ask to participate if you are unsure about your ability to follow through on your end. Yes, there are generous people who have and will throw together back-up packages so that no one gets left out. No, that does not mean that it’s okay to flake. Please note: February 15th is the absolute last date to tell me that you need to bow out.Got it?
To participate, please fill out this questionnaire and send it to Traci at CrimsonVision dot net (please make sure to type out my email the correct way rather than just copying and pasting; trying to avoid spammers!), with the subject line “Windstone Forum Spring Gift Swap”

* If there are questions you don’t feel comfortable answering, feel free to omit them.
I will assign swappers/swappees and mail you your recipient’s questionnaire. I will also keep a list of swappers/swapees, so if someone doesn’t send their package, I’ll know, and will find some way to compensate.
Everybody, have fun!
Oh yes, I’ll be in again–want to give those questions more thought but I’ll definitely get them in before the deadline!!! 😀

crimsonvision.net is my website; you need to add the ‘Traci@’ in front of it. I don’t want to type it out in a link on a public forum as I get plenty of spam already thankyouverymuch. 😉
