Description:

For this swap you will alter something to make it holiday related.

Here's how it works:

Everyone who participates in the swap will post what their favorite holiday icon is (snowflakes, santa, start of david, menorah, candles, candy-canes, bells, snowmen)

Once your partner is assigned, you will go to the thrift shop and find something to alter. You must change it in a way that it looks like or is somehow related to your partner's favorite icon. Don't cheat and actually buy an item that IS the icon.

Example: My partner sees that I like snowmen. She goes to the thrift store and finds a round teapot. She paints it white and gives it a snowman face, then ties a red tea towel on the handle as the scarf. Voila!

I am giving a looong time to finish this swap, as it will require you to shop and create. Due to the weight I will make this US only, though anyone who wants to make an international swap like this is welcome to.

Usual rules apply:

Send something you would be proud to display in your own home.

Communicate with your partner if you have questions.

If you flake, you WILL be humiliated.
