Description:

Dolphingirl asked for someone to host this year so hi all - here is the official "13 Days of Halloween USA" swap, one of my favorites.

Fill a package with 12 small wrapped gifts and one larger nicer wrapped gift (for a total of lucky 13). Please number the wrapped packages 1-13 with the first item to be opened on October 19th. Your partner will then open a package a day with the last present (#13) opened on Halloween Day (so make the last present extra special).

Ideas for your package Halloween decorations, Halloween jewelry, Halloween craft items (beads, buttons, paper punches, rubber stamps, stickers, etc...) socks, gloves, leg warmers, wrist warmers, Nightmare Before Xmas Items, Pin back buttons, scrapbook stuff, Martha Stewart Halloween items, black orange or purple candles, ribbons, candy treats, stationary, cookie cutters, books (used books that fit the theme are a wonderful gift!) books on true ghost stories from your area. Items with skulls, monsters, bats, black cats, and other spooky things are welcome. Also all handmade items or a mix of handmade and store bought items are welcome!

No more than 4 of the 13 days can be food. Please look at your partners profile for food likes/dislikes and allergy's. Day 1-12 s value should average at least $1 for each days present (some days your present may be more than $1 some days less but overall it should average out to a value of $12 for the first 12 presents) and Day 13 should have a value of $5-$10.

If you live outside the USA please feel free to start an international version of this swap for the group!

Addendum: I am giving this a long lead time and mailing window so everyone who wants may fit it into their schedule.

Dear all, if you are in the group with an excellent record but get a rating that pulls it down please reach out. Sometimes real life situations do occur and the art has to take a step back. I will look at any requests like this on a case by case basis. Thank you.

I will not be on here till after the 23rd. I am heading to Chicago and back. So I won't be active for a week. Excited to get my partner so I can start shopping.

Just wanted to check . . . I received a reminder from Swap-bot to rate this swap. Are we supposed to rate before opening the 13 packages?

It is kind to let your partner know it was received and of course, it's a five for requirements. I can understand waiting a bit to rate so you can do a more personal thank you and / or decide if you wish to add hearts. Thank you - I hope everyone received nice goodies. Happy Halloween 👻🎃☠️💀
