I'm hosting this in another pagan group, but it seems like so much fun, I thought you all would enjoy it too!

Ostara is March 22nd, 2009.

EDITED AGAIN!

PLEASE KEEP THE EGG SIZE UNDER 4 INCHES

EDITED: I was asked if 18 cm was an okay size for an egg--the answer is, that's wayyyyy too big! :) Our (USA) eggs are about 9 cm tall and about 5 or 6 cm wide. Think about the size of an ATC (if you make those). Very small egg--like a real chicken's egg that hasn't hatched. About that size. We want it small so that it is a challenge to see how much you can stuff into it. :)

I hope that gives you an idea. They look similar to this:

As for it being metal or paper, that is okay, as long as you package it well enough for it to travel all the way to the States or overseas (depending on where your partner is) safely. :)

BE SURE TO STUFF YOUR EGG AS FULL AS YOU CAN, AND DON'T FORGET TO DECORATE THE OUTSIDE OF THE EGG TOO!

This one's an easy one!

Take a plastic egg (the standard size, not too teeny, not too large) and fill it with things relative to your partner's profile. Make sure you decorate the outside of the egg as well!

Examples are:

• embroidery thread/floss

• beads

• chocolate kisses

• chocolate covered expresso beans

• stickers

• paper cut outs

• jewelry of some sort

• mini-pencils or crayons

• candy

• funky bandaids

• needles

• yarn or ribbon samples (at least 12 inches)

• swap cards or address labels

• tiny rubber stamps and teeny ink pad

• jewels to embellish with

• tea bags or coffee samples or cocoa

• mini glitter glue

Okay, I think you get the idea!

You'll have 1 partner.

I've set the send-by date early enough (hopefully) that our international partners will receive theirs by Ostara.

As always, if you've got questions, just ask!

this swap will be cancelled if less than 3 people sign up
