Samhain/Halloween

US and Canada Only

Samhain/Halloween Swap...for those who celebrate this Pagan holiday or not. Each person has their own ways of celebrating, but for those not familiar with it, here is a link for more info: http://www.geocities.com/lavenderwater37/holidays/samhain.htm

Samhain is the Pagan holiday for the Celtic New Year and is the 3rd and final holiday that marks the end of the harvest season. It is also a time to honor those who have passed on the year before. For this swap, you will have one partner. You will send you partner items to help celebrate Samhain. It can be altar items, herbs, incense, spell items, a ritual, etc etc. Please follow the correspndence list of Samhain items as to what you will send. If you have any allergies, please list them here. Please make this a nice size swap, cost between $15-$20 before postage. Send something you would love to recieve in return and something that might get you a heart!! Handmade items, as long as they are nice, are welcome. Only those with a rating of 4.7 or higher can join. Absolutely no "no send" within the past 2 months and that's within the sign-up deadline of September 25th. And I will check on those who join and ban anyone who doesn't meet the requirements. As the hostess of this swap, I reserve the right to ban anyone who doesn't fit these requirements.
