I love the lights, the music, the decorations.
And I love ornaments.
Especially vintage ornaments.
They make me so happy.
So, I am thrilled to join Erin over at Living In Yellow for a Christmas ornament swap.
It is super easy. Here's what you gotta do:
Step 1. Sign up.
Link up your blog on Erin's site. (Living In Yellow) to let us know you want to participate in the swap.
Sign ups close at Midnight on October 31st.
Sign ups close at Midnight on October 31st.
Step 2. Spread the word.
Everyone loves getting special deliveries in the mail. Especially when
it’s a super festive item like an ornament for your holiday tree. So let
all of your blog friends know about the swap. The more, the merrier.
Step 3. Get your match.
On Thursday, November 1st, we will post the swap matches. You
will contact the blogger you’re buying for via their blog, email,
twitter, facebook, etc. to get their address.
Step 4. Shop and Mail.
On or before November 12th, purchase and mail your ornament. This means your ornament should be en route to its recipient NO LATER THAN the 12th.
Step 5. Receive & Blog about your ornament!
This is the fun part! Blog, Instagram, Tweet your Ornament Swapping
Adventure. Be sure and use #ornamentswap on Instagram & Twitter so
other Swappers can find you!
Step 6. Link up!
We will be hosting a Linky Party on December 1st for those of you
bloggers that want to link up your posts! (This gives you plenty of
time to make sure your ornament arrives & recap your adventures.)
Now, I know people may have a few more questions about the details, so here are some additional things you should know.
1. You should spend between $4-$14 on your ornament.
2. Ornaments should be new, as no one wants any “gently used” tree decorations.
3. The ornament you purchase should be something fun, quirky, or
beautiful that you’d like to receive and that you will be proud of when
it is associated with you and your blog.
4. You can purchase ornaments from anywhere.
5. You will not be sending and receiving to the same person. Technically
you aren't "swapping", more like a daisy chain of ornaments will be
flying through the skies via the postal service. You will send to one
person and receive from someone else. This way you get to know at least
two people!
6. Be sure to package your ornament in bubble wrap to ensure it arrives safely. Getting a broken ornament is no fun at all.
7. Please do not sign up unless you are 100% sure you can fulfill the swap requirements, we would hate for someone to sign up and not participate.
So, join me. I thin k it will be a lot of fun.
Remember, go link up at Erin's site.
