I try to keep am ongoing list of smalls and extras because sometimes people don’t know what to ask for.

If you have any other ideas, feel free to list in this thread and I will add them!

Also, you don’t have to select from the list. it’s just to help with ideas if you need it.

I’m very tempted, this is such a fun swap. I’ll have a think about it - if I remember rightly, I paired up with someone ahead of time last time, so that we knew we were both happy with the international postage.

I’m so tempted but I always feel bad for the person who has to send to Canada, it seems to cost them so much.
