INTL. version of this Swap (US/Canada Only)

After seeing all the goodies sent and recieved by the FAA Lucky Parcel Group, I've decided to create a similar swap for those of us that are not a part of that group and want to try a Lucky Parcel.

Each swapper will have one partner for this first round.

What is a Lucky Parcel?

A Lucky parcel is a small, very sweet parcel of small, cute goodies from a partner to another.

How do I make a Lucky Parcel?

Start with a small containter - A jar, a bag, a box, etc, then fill the container with small objects of a certian theme.

Some examples of things to fill the bag with are: fabric, ribbon, paper, mini-stationary, key chains, little plushies, candies, beads, stickers, buttons, and other little trinkets. Just as it reads in the descriptions for the FAA swaps, the emphasis is on small and cute.

What's the theme for these Lucky Parcels?

There is a free theme for this Lucky Parcel!.. well, not completely free! Anyone participating in the swap will list a minimum of 5 themes they'd love to recieve as a lucky parcel. Some examples could include things like: Polka dots, kawaii, purple, etc. Colours or themes are acceptable. Make sure that your themes would be general enough to fill a lucky parcel with. Handmade items are acceptable, and even encouraged, however, you do not NEED to include something handmade.

When partners are assigned, your partner will choose 1 theme (or more, depending on what you list and how ambitious your partner is!) and create a parcel just for you to enjoy!

Who can participate

I know that no one likes being left out of a swap if they'd really like to participate, but I've decided to impliment some criteria for this swap. You must have at least 10 completed swaps and a rating of 4.8 or higher. No newbies, sorry.

If you have an outstanding situation and would really like to participate, feel free to PM me and we can discuss.

Anyone who has not listed their themes by the time the swap is ready to assign partners, they will be banned.

I've allocated a lot of time for this one, so hopefully everyone will recieve and create awesome Lucky Parcels that we'd all love have for ourselves.

If this goes well, I will host more swaps like this in the future. =) Also, any questions or comments, feel free to PM me or comment below. =)

For some inspiration, search "Lucky Parcel(s)" on Flickr.com, there's some great results. =D
