I'm interested! ... But I've never done a swap before. :x What are the rules/guidelines usually like?

I'll try to come up with some theme ideas in the meantime...

EDIT: Came up with a theme idea! "Wish You Were Here" - do a sort of vacation postcard/care package?:D

I love the idea of a vacation theme! I'm interested in swapping as well, but it's also my first. :x

Hobbies and/or sports? My Rian still plays with his swap puppets he got years ago.

I like MrKaffiend's idea of Wish You Were Here. Have items related to where you live and maybe add a postcard with fun facts about your city/state/country.

What about A Day At the Beach? Speaks for itself. :P

Or maybe Summer Cookout? Great for doll food and cute kitchen items. :3

I agree for Summer Cook out or maybe Ocean theme like rubber sharks, mermaid tails that stuff...But I like the cook out idea. Always a good excuse to raid the toy sections or break out the polymer clay.

Ooh~ I do like the cook out idea! Or pool party kind of thing~

Do you have to send a certain number of items in the package? Or is it just within the $10 limit?

You can send as many things as you want. I put a $10.00 cap on spending per doll entered.
