Not A Child's Swap

You will need One Dozen-12 plastic Easter Eggs.

You will have 1 partner.

Decorate your carton of Eggs to send and wrap the eggs and the carton in Freezer paper. Freezer Paper to me is the cheapest way to send it through the mail, and it looks neat and you can write on the package as well..

Each egg must be filled.

You will open one egg each day starting on March 24 until April 4 the day of Easter and make that last Egg Eggstra Special.

Things you can fill the Eggs with

Candy that doesn't melt

Charms

A little note from you.

Small samples of of soap,mini shampoo,conditioner.

Fortune Cookie.

Little Tiny Note pads.

Ribbons

Buttons

Thimbles

Needle threaders

Lip gloss

Little Magnets

Bottle cap pincushions

Bottle cap magnets

Stamps

Let your creativeness run WILD!

You can also decorate each egg if you like. Make sure that each egg is sealed, You will be putting the eggs in an egg carton and that can be decorated as well, Thanks to my daughter @DaisyDice for this idea. Have fun ladiesรขโ„ขยฅ

This Swap is Newbie Friendly. But All newbies must contact me first before signing up for swap.

Rules, you got to have rules

Must have a complete profile! This means your likes and dislikes. And, if you flake on this swap, your name will be listed in the Swap -bot flakers group. If there is communication to your partner as to why it is being late. This will be understandable. Communications is the Key to all swaps. Don't let karma come bite you in the butt. This will be a fun swap. This will be my third year I have done this swap. This is also International as well. Please be honest and fair! I can't Angel this one! These dates I have listed will give plenty of time for the partner to get them by March 24 to open them all by April 4th Easter. To make it more special for your partner put a number on top of each egg. That will be the egg that they are too open on that day and no more.

Can we request the items to be sent for our child?? Or can we start one meant for the children? I love this swap!! It will be such fun.

I am new and it says to contact you before joining. I am catcare and this swap sounds super and I would like to join and am still deciding but am going to contact you anyway. Could I join? Thanks for your time.

I too am new, but would love to join. This is really a neat idea. And, my kids will love it!

Oh my goodness...I LOVE this idea! It is along the same line as an advent calendar! I am definately doing this for my granddaughter but us adults will enjoy also! As a sewer I thought of a couple of extra things like spool of nice thread, embroidery floss, pack of needles, ohhh the possibilities are endless arent they? SIGN ME UP!!

Great idea, but stupid question - what is freezer paper ?

Bups 02/20/2010 #

Rowann freezer paper is the brown or white paper you get meat wrapped in if you buy from the butcher - you can buy it in rolls - found with stuff like tinfoil, wax paper, etc at the grocery stores.

Has paper on one side and plastic inside.

Hope that helps

What happens if we cant find freezer paper, May we just use bubble wrap?

CariahCreates 02/25/2010 #

I often wrap boxes in a disassembled brown paper grocery bag. Would this work?

As someone who doesn't have children, I would prefer this to be an adult swap with one started specifically for children. I honestly would have no idea what to get for a child. Still watching this swap as this hasn't been specified yet.

CariahCreates 02/25/2010 #

Oops that's confusing. I mean that for those of you who want to do it for your children or grandchildren, I wish you would start a kids swap. It's really hard for those of us who don't have children to meet your needs and it's really kind of unfair to expect that.

biasbabe 02/25/2010 #

I have posted it in the swap that this a adult swap. If you want to do a child's swap please pm . Freezer paper can be bought at a local grocery store in the isle with the ziplock bags. It is used to wrap meat in for people who like to buy meet in bulk and freeze it. Same isle as in the Aluminum Foil as well.

My eggs are too big to fit into an egg carton! I hope it's on that I an making my own "carton" for them.
