love the idea of a whimsey jar swap and wanted to be inclusive to everyone. I decided to go with a Whimsey box swap. Less weight for postage costs and less likely to break. My idea for the box is a 4x6 or 5x7. These can be found at most dollar stores. Be creative - decorate your box, wrap it and fill it. I love trinkets and crafty items. I decided to go with a PURLPE theme because honestly I love purple! Feel free to use all shades of purple or mixed colours with the primary colour purple. (purple and black, purple and white) This is the 2nd swap so if it goes well I will use different colours or themes. If you have an idea please let me know. I borrowed this list from a jar swap but it is not exhaustive, only suggestions. You MUST place at least 15 items in the box. A writing utensil (a pen, a pencil, a sharpie--regular sized or mini--etc.) . 1 hi-liter(regular sized or mini) A game piece (Scrabble tile, a die etc.) Something new Something used 1 medium sized rubber stamp or 2 small rubber stamps (may be new or gently used) 1 small ink pad 5 lengths of ribbon (all must be at least 12" in length and all 5 must be different) 1 new in package small tin of mints (think mini sized altoids) 5 individually wrapped pieces of candy (if you have any allergies please list in comment section) 1 small profile surprise 1 glitter type item 1 spring related item Something flower (it can be something like a silk flower or something with a flower on it) Beads (1 small package=1 Item.) Buttons (10 buttons=1 item--can be all one color or different) 2 packets individual drinks (Crystal lite, coffee, tea etc) Paper embellishments Stickers Punches trinkets notepads Vending machine items gumballs soap lotion bath bombs Newbies are welcome, but no unexplained 3 or 1's. Items are senders choice except where noted (ie candy if allergies are listed). Even though this is senders choice, do a quick profile check to see if your partner will actually like(hopefully at least) all the things you decide to include. USA and Canada only due to shipping costs. (comparable) All welcome with a 4.9+ ratings. Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile. No recent 1's or 3's (within last 6 months) I reserve the right to ban anyone who may seem iffy. Normal rating paramaters apply. THIS IS THE 2ND WHIMSEY BOX - IF YOU ARE NOT SURE YOU CAN DO THIS PLEASE DO NOT SIGN UP. SOMEONE FLAKED ON THE LAST WHIMSEY BOX - IT IS NOT FAIR TO THE PERSON WHO IS SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE THANKS FOR PARTICIPATING - NO FLAKERS PLEASE! I will check profiles and will delete anyone who is questionable. | |
