Hi all, this is the first group swap i have hosted so i am very excited to be able to share a swap with all of the great Aussie swappers amongst us! I hope you will all enjoy this swap as much as i will.

So this is a profile in a box swap. When partners are assigned you will check your partners profile; find out what they like and what they don't and fill a BC Sized Mailing Box with goodies that fit their profile. The box should be full (not just one item with a lot of packaging). As it is meant to be like their profile in a box you should aim to put in a variety of things that represent a wide range of their hobbies/interests.

Handmade items are acceptable if that is what your partner is interested in. If you are handmaking any items please make sure to put time and effort into it. It should be something you would be happy to receive. Please no used/second hand items unless your partner collects something that is specifically used.

Feel free to wrap your items or include a letter to your partner. These are not required but would be a lovely added bonus.

To participate you should have a minimum overall rating of 4.9 and be rated for a minimum of 4 swaps.

Thanks and i hope this will be a fun swap!
