so. we email our addresses ands stuff, nothing more?

by Forace Thu Dec 22, 2011 6:46 am

Yes, everybody participating send their home address via e-mail to Mimi and next week she will give you an address where you send your gift.

In your e-mail to Mimi, remember to tell your forum name, just in case! At least, I wouldn't know who's who! :D

And btw! Feel free to add a letter or a Christmas card with your gift if you want!

i tried it once and my package got completely lost.. so i dont think u can do that. maybe as a friend if they'd be fine with receiving the letter at theirs?

by MoonChildEve Fri Dec 23, 2011 7:01 am

i'll give but not recieve Smile

unless i have to give my address when sending it.

by Forace Sat Dec 24, 2011 3:11 am

^ Usually it's a good idea to put the sender's address, too, because if the package doesn't reach the recipient, it can't be sent back to sender... So uh, I don't know xD I have confidence that if you write the recipient's address clearly and make sure it has enough stamps etc., it will go there.

TanyaMinxy wrote:Cause my parents want let me give address to "strangers" :/

Yeah, give us your address so we can come over and kill you, because that's what the Moonchildren are about... No wait, that's the Sith.

If you can't give your address to "strangers", do you have a friend who could? xD

by Forace Sun Dec 25, 2011 9:04 pm

I sent my address to Mimi :)

by mimi Mon Dec 26, 2011 2:03 am

by mimi Wed Dec 28, 2011 5:37 am

Okay, I've written down everybody who said they wanted to take part and I've also written down who has sent me the addresses and sent emails to people who haven't yet.

If i don't hear back from them by Friday, i will send out the addresses amongst the people who have sent their addresses!

by YetiMoonchild Thu Dec 29, 2011 8:05 am

by TanyaMinxy Fri Jan 06, 2012 6:06 am

I sent my gift 5 minutes ago Smile

Im so happy Very Happy

by TheLastSongbird Fri Jan 06, 2012 7:19 am

Aww, seeing that so many of you are sending off handmade gifts is making me feel like I'm not putting in enough effort...I'm not good at crafty stuff though :/ I'll be sending a gift, and I'll put thought into it, and I know it's the thought that counts and all that. I just wish I was better at making stuff...

Oh well, I hope the person I'm sending to will feel the love I'll put into this anyway. I'll be sending mine off on Monday ^^

by MoonChildEve Fri Jan 06, 2012 8:00 am

the gifts are made, the note is written...just need an envelope and a stamp!

by Forace Fri Jan 06, 2012 9:48 am

Tanya: I know, I was smiling like an idiot when I sent my gift xD

Liz: it's the thought that counts ^^ There are many crafty people on ToL, so no need to feel like that. I'm sure whatever you send will be appreciated :3

I'm not good at crafts either. Hopefully the item I bought won't be all that bad though xD
yeah it's the thought that counts :p

I think I'll be sending mine off tomorrow. :3 excited Very Happy

by TheLastSongbird Fri Jan 06, 2012 4:12 pm

Ok, I feel better now ^^ Thanks, Silja and Mary.

I'm sure I'll be able to find something really cute in a shop I have in mind. It's one of those places where you find treasures <3

by mile86 Sat Jan 07, 2012 9:52 am

Oh I finally have something..I think it's pretty good...It's something I bought some time ago, and never wore.So I did a few changes and I'm gonna send it, hopefully on Monday..I wanted to ask, is the person we're sending to, the same person that will send us back??? ohhh can't wait!!!

by TanyaMinxy Sat Jan 07, 2012 10:27 am

No, thats the other person Smile

So that person you are sending to doesnt know that you are his/her Secret Santa Smile

by MoonChildEve Sat Jan 07, 2012 10:28 am

Is everybody going to take pictures of the gifts they recieve?

by mile86 Sat Jan 07, 2012 12:30 pm

SURE!!!!!!!!!

by TanyaMinxy Sat Jan 07, 2012 12:49 pm

Of course!
We must do that, and we should make new topic with received gifts Smile

by Amarine2008 Sat Jan 07, 2012 2:18 pm

I got a guy and idk what to sendddd lol and just logged on today so ill send soon. Is there a way to know when we are supposed to get them?

by Quincy Sat Jan 07, 2012 3:19 pm

Amarine2008 wrote:Is there a way to know when we are supposed to get them?

I don't think we can really know because some people are sending to different countries so that could take a while but like my person will probably get theirs in a few days even though I just sent it because we don't live half way around the world from each other

by TanyaMinxy Sat Jan 07, 2012 4:13 pm

LOL I was excited about sending gift to another person so I forgot that I am gonna receive gift as well Very Happy

by Amarine2008 Sat Jan 07, 2012 10:28 pm

I poked around on here and found a gre as t idea cuz mine started a thread so yay

by YetiMoonchild Sun Jan 08, 2012 3:12 pm

I haven't had time to log on until todayyyyyy but hopefully I'll send off my gift on Wednesday! Sorry <3

by javieljones Mon Jan 09, 2012 12:35 pm

I'm hoping to send mine off tomorrow. Sick + working like crazy = No time for anythinggg. XD

by TanyaMinxy Mon Jan 09, 2012 1:47 pm

Do you know how long does it take for my package to come to the receiver? I am from Europe and I have send it to another country in Europe Smile

I have no idea is that 2 days or 2 months Very Happy

by Forace Mon Jan 09, 2012 2:18 pm

^ Well, I got a package from Natt from Poland in less than a week (5-6 days), and my package to her took about the same time. I sent a drawing to Germany, and it was there in less than a week also. But the same drawing was then sent from Germany to the Netherlands, and it took a week and a day (though there was new year's in the middle). So it depends on a lot of things :/
I sent mine on last Thursday, so I guess it should reach the recipient soon...
