Borrowed my husband‘s art material to make some Christmas cards. All #litsylove mails and #jolabokaflodswap parcel sent yesterday. Because of time constraints , Book was ordered directly through Amazon. Feeling #festive #christmasswap #bookswap

I know I‘d love this. But between losing Milo and the holidays and having to overhaul my apartment idk if I can manage trying to organize it myself so putting it out there in case anyone was contemplating doing a Christmas card swap. I‘d love to do cards and bookmarks.

Secret Santa | Kati Wilde

QUESTION: Does anyone know if the Litsy Secret Santa Swap is happening? I've seen a lot of people asking.
@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @MinDea @Robothugs @Avanders @Jess7 @BookaholicNatty @MrBook @Chelleo
Have you guys heard anything?

Chelleo There was a stocking swap that closed on Sat. I think there‘s a Nightmare Before Christmas one too. 6y

BeansPage @Chelleo yeah I know of those ones. but people are specifically asking for the secret santa swap. I don't know who does that one and I don't know if it's happening this year. 6y

Avanders I've inquired too and have heard nothing. The 2 mentioned by Chelleo, above, are closed... As, I believe, is @cwarnier 's #christmasswap. But I nonetheless expect at least 1 more to crop up. Unfortunately, I believe #ssgp is *not* going forward this year. 😕 (edited) 6y

Avanders (FYI: #ssgp is Secret Santa Goes Postal, Which is the one that BookishMarginalia ran for a couple years & everyone's asking about. She was in Puerto Rico when Hurricane Maria hit and, although they have since moved to Florida, they are still recovering from all that happened. Gloria hasn't run ssgp since Maria -- MrBook, BookBabe, and I ran it last year on her behalf, but I think it may not be until next year that we see it again) 6y

BeansPage @Avanders oh my goodness! Well I hope everyone is alright and that they recover quickly. In the meantime my swap is open for a few more days to give people a chance to do a swap this year. 6y

Avanders 🤗 That's sweet of you! 😘❣️ 6y

Melli I think it was @BookBabe that did it last year 6y

MrBook Hmmmm... 6y

Wonderwoman89 I would host one through Elfster but do not know how. 6y

Christmas Stockings: 18 Holiday Treasures to Knit | Jean Campbell

Gauging interest...

I'm thinking of doing an early-December-open stocking swap.. (December 6th, to be precise). Due to the early open, though, the timing would mean only in-country matches (ie no international shipping), and a pretty quick turnaround on sign ups... What do you think? Any Interest?

#stuffedstockingswap #sss #christmasswap #christmas

Jennick2004 I might be interested 6y

TheBookKeepers I may be interested depending on all requirements! 6y

kstadt929 I might be interested too 😊 6y

EH2018 Me too! 6y

StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego I like it. 6y

BookishTrish I‘m curious... 6y

AmyG I‘d be interested. 6y

Theshadedbuffalo 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️ 6y

SamanthaMarie Interested!!!! 6y

Chrissyreadit Yes- and that is St. Nicholas Day too! 6y

SMayWrites 🙋‍♀️ interested! 6y

LibrarianRyan Sure 6y

freyaheart Interested 6y

LapReader Wish it could be international. 6y

BookwormAHN 🙋🏼‍♀️ 6y

AsYouWish Interested! 6y

Ranchan If it can be an internation in-country (e.g., in the Netherlands) too, then definitely!! 6y

Avanders @Jennick2004 @kstadt929 @EH2018 @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego @BookishTrish @AmyG @Theshadedbuffalo @SamanthaMarie @SMayWrites @LibrarianRyan @freyaheart @BookwormAHN @AsYouWish 👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽☃️🎄 6y

Avanders @TheBookKeepers cool.. like what requirements? You mean size-of-package? That'll be a choice... or..? Anyway, cool & thanks! ☺️🎄 6y

Avanders @Chrissyreadit I know!! 😄😄 (I'm originally from Wisconsin 😁) 6y

Avanders @LapReader @oOArankaOo right, Aranka's got it -- it's "in-country" as in, as long as 2+ people sign up from your own country, then you can be matched. I.e., 2 from Netherlands, great! 2 from Australia, word. If only one signs up, though, I won't be able to match. 6y

TheBookKeepers Like minimum $ set to spend, # items required. Can it be books only or is it books plus goodies. Those type of requirements is what I was curious about 6y

Avanders @TheBookKeepers ahh.. no minimum $$, but minimum pkg would be 2 books & 2 bookish goodies ... Though your question makes me think.. 🤔 would you be interested in a book only swap? 1 book minimum? 2? I can easily add that as an option. ☺️ 6y

TheBookKeepers Nice I love gifting but also love being thrifty so min $ always scare me off! Being a stuffed stocking type I think non book goodies should be included, maybe a lower minimum of 1 book & 1 goodie would be more appealing & budget friendly! (Tho there‘s a good chance I‘ll prolly still go over 😂). Also would we be required to include a stocking? I think that‘d be cute to literally stuff a stocking. (edited) 6y

Avanders @TheBookKeepers good idea! 1&1 will be the minimum. And stocking! Yes, I thought a stocking would be required...... but it could be any kind of stocking ... a full size, mini, a real sock of some Christmas variety (or even the pair 😜). Or to help w budget-conscious folks, maybe even a drawing or story about a stocking... somehow to include it. 🤗🤗 6y

TheBookKeepers Yes I LOVE all of those ideas!!!! I adore swaps & Christmas ones the most! This idea is original and so exciting! Love your budget conscious add-ins! Makes it to where more ppl can participate & spread cheer! 😍 🎄 6y

Avanders @TheBookKeepers 💞🎄🤗😘 6y

Gissy Yes! 6y

AsYouWish Yay!!! This sounds so exciting!!!! 6y

AmyG Maybe let us write whether we celebrate Christmas or not. I do Hanukkah...so perhaps, gift without a stocking or socks (instead of a stocking). 6y

Avanders @AmyG good thought! Thanks! .. I'd thought of it and included "just winter" too ☺️ but I hadn't thought about how the "stocking" aspect applied... I like the "socks" idea ☺️ @Gissy ??❣️ 6y

kaysworld1 Yes, yes yes 😊 6y
