Hopefully this isn't too late but I thought it'd be fun to do an advent calendar swap to get us in the holiday spirit. We haven't done a trade here on the blog for quite some time. I was looking through advent calendars and just love them. 12 little gifts to be opened starting December 14th and you'll have 1 gift to open every day leading up to Christmas! Read below for more details!
You'll be paired with 1 partner and exchange your interests. You'll then gather up 12 little gifts and package them up with the gifts numbered #1-#12. The gifts can be a range of things: stationery, vintage ephemera, cards, artwork, pens, stamps, lip balm, mix cd, keychain - Get creative! Perhaps even something like a secret family recipe or something fun. There's a great list of ideas here. Please make sure your gifts are thoughtful and are in line with the interests of your swap partner!

I am a bit of a fabric snob though that I have found so theres that. I like letterpress, any kinds of cool stationery, most paper stuffs make me happy, fresh pencils are awesome. I would love to learn the art of calligraphy one day, a calligraphy pen would be exciting to me. I like to read, my favorite book is Glass Castle. I like to drink tea, a good microbrew.
