"My favourite animals" Swap - all done!

[ShinePaw]

Yes I like both small things and artwork as well ^^

And I'm slowly getting together my package, I have most of the main stuff and some extras

[HawaiianRain]

I have an off question but does this forum do a Secret Santa? I've had so much fun with my first swap on here I would love to get involved in a secret santa.

We will have the Official Holiday Swaps starting pretty soon.

I am so looking forward to Sternenstaub's Advent Calendar Swap, this is the highlight of my year! Sooooo much fun!
And for this one, I HAVE TO STOP SHOPPING!!!!!!!

[Saja]

Me too, having trouble stopping my partners fave animal is one of my faves, so am poor buying 2 of everything lol.
Stopping now, just waiting for the parcels to arrive then find a box big enough!!

[stopxmotion]

new question:
do you collect any other small little things? erasers? etc... (as an extra)

another question:
do you like artwork?

Yes to both!

[wiccanpony1]

Yes I like small items and art work:)
Im done buying just waiting for things to arrive in the post x

[Naraya]

Yes to small things and artwork!

OT: I also love Sternenstaub's advent calendar swap - so much fun!

I'm also pretty much done buying. Waiting for it all to arrive and then packing it up.

Having to be careful with what I get though since I'm not sure what's allowed by Customs.

The usps website has a list of specifics of what isn't kosher to send across the pond to your partner. You would be surprised at some of the items. If you try the calculate postage link and follow the process for your package, on the step where you select on how you want it sent, up top to your right will be a link to a list of what isn't allowed to be sent.

hope this helps!

Actually that does, a LOT. I was trying to find the place on the website and it was starting to get overwhelming. I'd hate for something to not arrive simply because it wasn't allowable.

So far, I didn't have any problems with getting anything. 

That's the good thing in China, they make me pack the boxes directly at the post office, so they see what I want to send and tell me if it's allowed or not. Although it is also kind of embarassing.

I love artwork and homemade things (typical mom xD)

What else do i collect? Hmmm stickers, odd little charms, i like makingjewlery and sometimes i use them in my customs

[Varkolak]

i found a bunch of stuff last night for my partner but i'm worried it won't arrive in time. i'm very surprised at how hard it is to find these animals anywhere. hopefully i can make a trip to the zoo and hit up the gift shop! muhahahah best part of the zoo.

Is anyone doing non animal realated extras? I just realized thatmy box is just waiting for one more item to come in the mail but everything in it is swap  related? shouldi be thinking about unrelated extras?
