OK everyone! Here is what is going on...
As soon as the swap closes I will count children.
We will each get *(insert # of children at end of swap here)* tiny nature gifts. They must be as nature and faery based as possible. If faeries bring it they also must be tiny... under 1"x1". Examples include: (the word tiny is a given before each of these items) mushrooms, stickers, tatoos, dried/pressed/fake flowers, crystals, seeds (pretty ones, like black eyed pea seeds, cow beans or scarlet runner beans), beads, pretty rocks, neat marbles, things for a faery house (tiny cakes, tea sets, etc... 1"=1' scale or smaller), shells, tiny beaded rings or small braclets, coins/quarters (ones with plants or trees or babies on them seem the favorites of the faeries in my house ;) ), feathers, and anything tiny that you find/make.
What we each need to do is pick up a box from JoAnns or another craft store (cardboard, around 6" across) for each of YOUR children, and then decorate it with cut outs/stickers/etc of things from faeries (this is open to pure interpretation).
You are welcome to decorate before you send, or send with the cutouts/stickers/etc so I can do it.
Please seal and or decopauge your box before sending it or let me know if that needs to be done (if I a decorating the box, I will do it). It makes it last SO much longer and I know our kids are going to be putting treasures in these boxes for a long time. :)
BY MAY 25TH (this has to be a pretty firm date) we will need to have the things sent to me.
By JUNE 15th I will send them back out (except for Peppermint who I will try to get out as soon as I can so she can get the boxes back to my kids too).
Then around June 21st (for summer solstice) the kids will get a suprise from their faery. Each will come with a note and a blessing for the new year from their own personal faery.
I am asking $5.50 from those who are not decorating their own boxes, and $3.85 from those who are, for shipping and supplies *FOR EACH CHILD*. Just to make it easy so I don't have to buy envalopes again, I am shipping everything priority. :D
YES bags are fine... :) I will need to get boxes for the bags so nothing breaks though... But I think they are the same priority price. So that will work out fine. I just need to know who is doing what so I can get the right supplies. But they sounds super cute!
Love Val
