Description:

Hi! This is my first time hosting a swap so i'm quite excited!

For this swap, you should put a choice of 3 fairy tales in the comments section that you would like to receive a package themed on. Some ideas are Hansel & Gretel, Snow White, Little Red RIding Hood, Beauty & The Beast, Alice In Wonderland, The Little Mermaid, The Princess & The Pea, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Pinocchio, etc.

Once partners have been assigned, you will select one (or more) of your partner's choice of fairy tales to base your parcel on. Ideally you will base the package on 1 story, however, i understand that it may be difficult to find a whole package's worth of items on the one story.

You will try and tailor the items you put in your package to fit your partner's likes and dislikes (look at their profiles), and try and make them a great package you know they'll love.

You have over a month to put the package together, so hopefully it will give you all enough time to get some great items together. If you feel this isn't enough time, please let me know and i'll try and change the send-by date to occupy more participants!

Items you could include in your parcel are: -Ribbons -Fabrics -Buttons -Badges -Stuffies -Candy -Books -Letter Sets -Deco Tapes -Stickers -ATC's

Anything your partner states that they like on their profile really!

Handmade items are welcome, but don't send a whole package of them. I would say spend around £10 (give or take) on the package before shipping.

I really want this swap to be of a high standard, so i'm going to say a minimum of 10 snail-mail swaps, a rating of 4.8 or higher, and no unexplained no sends. If you are an exception to these rules and want to be involved in the swap, please e-mail me and i'll see whether i think you're suitable. (for example, if, by the send out date you'll have done 10 swaps.)

The swap is international, as i love receiving fun items from other countries!

I'm looking forward to the swap, so i hope you join! :)

GuitarRose 11/10/2008 #

This will be soo much fun <3 My fairy tales are: - little red riding hood - Alice in Wonderland - Bambi (counted, right?) xx

tinnuwen 11/11/2008 #

What a brilliant idea! :D My favourites: - Beauty and the Beast - Rapunzel - Cinderella - The Little Mermaid

And I like the serious side of fairytales, too so my swap-partner can gladly look into that as well - doesn't have to of course, but can. :) The only thing I am not too much into are Disney-things - It's not that I mind them, but I don't really collect them or anything. :)

hayleylouisabrown 11/11/2008 #

of course bambi counts! i'm excited so many people have joined already :)

AngelaMariex3 11/11/2008 #

Sounds like so much fun. I've never received or sent a lucky parcel, so I'll be doing some research to make sure I do it properly - but I love fairy tales so I have to try and play!

My themes are: Cinderella, Beauty & the Beast, and Alice in wonderland

craftymomma 11/11/2008 #

What a great swap idea! I love Beauty and the Beast, Thumbelina and Cinderella

AmandaC 11/14/2008 #

What a fun idea! I'm going to have to say my favorites are The Little Mermaid, Alice in Wonderland and Snow White. I'd prefer not to receive Disney items or ATCs, but other than that I'm pretty easy to please. :) Looking forward to this swap!

GracieBella 11/17/2008 #

Wonderful swap idea! Ahh my favourites are Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid. I love fairytales in general so this will be great fun =)

NeferTnah 11/17/2008 #

I love classic fairytales and The Brothers Grimm - my favorites are. Alice in Wonderland, Rapunzel, and The Princess and the Pea. Really looking forward to this swap !!

Rose827 11/24/2008 #

Beauty and the beast, the princess and the pea, rapunzel...:)

psycobambi 12/ 4/2008 #

Cool swap idea! I'm also not such a fan of Disney, but would love the stuff associated with the classic/dark/real/serious side of: Alice in Wonderland, Rumpelstiltskin and the 12 Dancing Princesses (or if you haven't heard of the last one, Sleeping Beauty).

justingrid 12/14/2008 #

My three picks are Rapunzel, Three Bremen Musicians, Little Red Riding Hood. Not into the disneyified stuff. But I don't think there is much of these stories by Disney. If these choices are difficult let me know and I can pick something easier.

mag 12/15/2008 #

bambi, beauty & the beast, peter pan
& i can't wait to get started!

vanessalouise 12/16/2008 #

what a great idea my favorites are peter pan, snow white, red riding hood and Hansel & Gretel. i also am not really into disney

AynE 12/16/2008 #

East of the Sun, West of the Moon; The Wild Swans and for the third, Snow White, Rose Red. SInce Disney has not done any of those as a movie I know it may be harder but not impossible. I don't like Disney or cartoonish stuff at all but do like handmade things and things that show imagination and thought.

mirrymir 12/17/2008 #

Great idea!!! Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Cinderella.

wooleyduck 12/19/2008 #

Love this idea!

My favorites would probably be: Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty and 3 Billy Goats Gruff. (I know it says 3 but in case you have trouble finding items...)

I would love just receiving a general fairy tale themed package, too, however you want to do it. A few Disney items for Sleeping Beauty or Cinderella would be fine but would prefer to have them at a bare minimum, please.

Luckystar37 12/19/2008 #

I love fairy tales :) I'm a big Disney fan, but also enjoy the original (often darker) stories.

That in mind, in order of preference:

The Little Mermaid, Beauty & the Beast, Alice in Wonderland, Snow White (I know it says three, but Snow White is my absolute favorite and I just had to include it as an option!)

This is such a fun idea. I can't wait to start putting my package together!!!

AynE 12/21/2008 #

I do not want anyone to feel intimidated by my fairytales, East of the Sun, West of the Moon is about a girl who is asked by a polar bear to sleep next to him every night for a year without looking, guess what...she lights a candle and looks, so the evil troll princess carries him off to her kingdom East / West. Things like candles, a compass, a comb and ball, you would have to read the story but they fit, a small stuffed polar bear...a small troll doll, if they still make those things...which they probably don't. I am easy to please and while I like handmade things and that doesn't mean involved perfect works of art, I like refrigerator art and popsicle stick art, the package doesn't have to be handmade.

Sleeping Beauty, 12 dancing Princesses, Snow White, I love all the Grimms Brothers Fairy Tales and collect all sorts of fairy tales :)
