The First Annual Crafternoon Christmas Swap

Create a piece of crafty goodness, package it up, and send it to Hatchling Society HQ.  Come Xmas, your piece of Christmas craftiness will be sent of on Santa's sleigh to some other lucky participant, and you in turn will receive a handcrafted piece of Christmas joy. Hoorah!

How it works:
To keep it fair and fun for everyone, try to keep your item around the value of $20-$30.  We're pretty sure that you don't want to be the one who spends heaps of time and money creating something amazing only to receive an empty matchbox in return, so be sure to put in the amount and effort that you want in return.

ALL handmade items must fit in an A4 size Express Post Satchel.  We do everything here at The Hatchling Society out of the goodness of our hearts, which unfortunately doesn't extend to forking out for extra postage for the suckers who didn't read the instructions properly. If your item is too big, it will be returned to you, which will not be all that cool for you.

Don't forget to think about how you'd feel if when you opened your swap pressie it was damaged or broken. Please, create, package and post with care and kindness.

All craft swap items Must, Must, MUST arrive at Hatchling Society HQ no later than December 10th!!!  If you miss the Xmas sleigh, you could single handedly be responsible for ruining someone elses Crafernoon Christmas Day, I'm sure no-one wants to be responsible for that now do they!! Raaaah!

What you need to include:
Your handcrafted Christmas Swap present (of course!) all wrapped in super Xmas style and ready to be ripped open with glee by the lucky recipient

A self-addressed, postage paid A4 size Express Post Satchel (make sure to get the one for Goods, not the one for Documents) don't forget to put your address on, as this is how Santa will know where to deliver your crafty Christmas treat.

Any info you would like to share about yourself, your craft item, or any creative endeavours/ventures you are undertaking.

Send all of this off to:  (by the 10th Dec, the 10th, the 10th!)
The Hatchling Society
9/105 Christine Avenue
Burleigh Waters, QLD, 4220
