Description:
There is a holiday for every day of the year. Since we will all be using the same holiday calendar, go to this website for the calendar month of May: http://holidayinsights.com/moreholidays/may.htm Using this calendar, you pick 4 different holidays from the month, you choose which four, and send something to your partner that has to do with the holidays you choose. It can be a news article, craft, purchased item, etc. Try to mix it up a little. Anything that comes to mind that represents that holiday. For ex: May 4 is Bird Day. Some ideas could be a bird feeder or a bird decoration. May 21 is National Memo Day. Maybe send a nice memo pad. Use your imagination! So you will send your partner a total of 4 items. After you have collected the 4 items, please send them all together to your partner by the assigned deadline of April 23. This is USA/Canada only, 1 partner, and anyone with 4.8 ratings or better, and no recent no-sends. Newbies with a full profile. This will be fun!

omgsh, that sounds like so much fun. Hmm let me watch it for a couple days. the possibilities are endless

This is crazy! What a fun idea for a swap. I checked out the website and was gobsmacked to realise that "take your daughter to work day" is a real thing, not just an invention of Arrested Development. There certainly is a lack of exciting holidays in Australia.

Just looked up the site. I think "lost sock memorial day" is my favorite-LOL

Just looking at the list I have came up with so many funny ideas for a lot of the days. Off to do one of the projects now. :)

Do you have a price range in mind? I could see going overboard! This will be so much fun!

In the year and a half that I've hosted this swap I've never put a dollar amount. I guess between $5-$10, give or take.

And yes, it's easy to go overboard! I usually do!

Hehehe, this is a great idea! I love finding out about unusual holidays, it'll be hard to narrow it down to just four.
