Christmas Package Trade Anyone? (closed!)


Happy October!
Not long now, Christmas is just around the corner.
I don't know about you, but I do get the tingles and such. I don't think I
have ever truly grown up. 
And now is the perfect time to start preparing and creating gifts!

I would love to trade some Christmas Goodness Packages!
In the package will be
. Delicious chocolate/sweets
. A heartfelt hand made item
.  Selection of fabric bits
. An unexpected surprise
. A Christmas Card
-

If you would like to trade a Christmas Goodness Package with me,
please leave me a comment and let me know the things you favour, such
as colours and other important info I need to know. 

All packages will be mailed in the 3rd week of November,
and upon receipt you are not allowed to peek until Christmas morning!
{ promise }

I will only be able to take on a handful of trades, and will pick randomly from
the list of people who have been so kind to leave me a comment. 

Let the fun begin!

  3. Oh, I've never done a Christmas swap and I am so terribly afraid not to disappoint you, but I'll do my very best not to if I'll get to be picked :)

    I can't believe Christmas is so close! But until then, there are pumpkins to enjoy in every form and leaves to crunch with boots and...all sorts of autumny things :)

  19. What a lovely idea. I have never done this. But it sounds like a great way to share the holiday spirit from one country to another! You should know that we have the best locally- and beautifully (artfully) made chocolates in this town that I would love to share with you. Almost too pretty to eat! But you must! And the rest...well...that's a secret. Best -- Melissa

  49. Dat wordt lastig kiezen voor je denk ik, maar mocht ik er tussen zitten...

    Yummie chocolade... wat voor variatie dan ook je mag me er voor wakker maken.
    Ik heb een voorkeur voor blauwtinten, maar kreeg van de week van een kleurencoach het advies om ook iets van geel te gaan dragen (al was het maar in ondergoed ;) )

    'T is weer tijd om het binnen ontzettend gezellig te maken, voor een kaarstengek als ik een heerlijke tijd. Maar bovenal... ik laat me graag verrassen :)

    En oh oh wat zal het lastig worden om het pakje niet te openen, ben van nature zo ontzettend nieuwsgierig dat wil je niet weten ;)

    Nu maar hopen dat ik uit de hoge hoed getrokken wordt!
