Come one, come all to the Spooky Swap!

Travis of Inked Books and I are hosting a Halloween Spooky Swap! 

Everyone likes getting stuff in the mail, and Halloween isn’t really a gift-giving holiday. Why? Well I wish we knew, but I like getting surprises so we declared it a gift-giving holiday!

Everyone participating will fill out an info form, and we’ll match everyone with someone they groove with. Yes, we did just say groove. Unless you REALLY want to know who’s sending your package, we’ll keep that a surprise. 🙂 You will be emailed info about who you’ll be sending your Package of Awesome to. Then at the end we’ll set up a Mr. Linky so that you can share your undying love for what your partner sent you! Sound fab?

The theme is Halloween, so here are the requirements for the packages:

(1) Scary story (book/movie/etc)
– This can be something you have, purchase at a thrift store (good condition please) or discover on the sale rack!

(1) Halloween colored item (orange/black, purple/black, etc)

– This is open to your interpretation! Consider what your partner likes/collects/etc.

(1) Type of candy or something sweet
– Come on…we all know Halloween is about the candy…mmmm….

Once you’ve included these items, you can add anything else you’d like to your recipient’s package! Be fun, be intentional, enjoy!

MONEY LIMIT:
15$ MINIMUM + shipping. This means that you MUST spend at least 15 dollars – no less. We want to make sure that everyone is fair. You could spend a few more dollars if you wish to do so, but that is completely up to you. Shipping is extra. Please take some time into getting thoughtful items for your partner! Don’t just stop at the gas station and pick something up – think about whether the items you get are something you yourself would like to receive.

REQUIREMENTS FOR SHIPPING:
Members are required to get Delivery Confirmation with their packages and email the number to Jessica or myself. You can find our email addresses on our respective blogs. We will email you to remind you if the deadline is nearing and we haven’t heard from you yet.

WHEN YOU GET YOUR PACKAGE:
Once you get your package, please post about it! Tell us what you got, post pictures, and thank your partner! If you don’t have a blog, you can still participate! Please send your thank you post and pictures to one of us and we’ll post it for you.

DEADLINES:
All participants must be signed up by October 3rd. This will give us plenty of time to pair you off, notify you, and ensure that you still have plenty of time to go out and get some fun items for your partner. We will consider taking late signups if the participant is willing to ship by the deadline!

All packages must be sent by October 20th. This is to ensure that your package gets wherever it is shipped off to in time! You are welcome to send it before the date if it is ready to go. If you agree to ship Internationally, you may want to send it a bit earlier.
