I finally managed to get pictures today of everything that was in the swapbox when it got to me on Tuesday after travelling for 9 months around the UK!
First off, I want to thank everyone who was involved in this. Everyone traded fairly and was very generous with the extras they put in .
For those of you who don't know, I sent a little notebook with the box so that everyone could record what they put in and took out of the box. The pages from this can be seen here: smg.photobucket.com/albums/v705/Pinkchicken22/2006%20UK%20Swapbox/
Anyway, here are the things I found lurking inside that huge box!
G3s
G2s
(I left one out by mistake, so there were actually 6 G2s in there)
G1s
These were the things I took out of the box....
....and these are the things I've added to the box! (so far)
I thought it'd be quite nice to have some UKs in there, seeing as it's the UK swapbox
I also found two lovely drawings in there, although they weren't signed! Come on, own up!
Gloomy also left for me a beautiful drawing, featuring all of our pony personas around the box! I would post a picture, but I completely gutted and cleaned my room yesterday, and I put it in a storage box with some other stuff before I took a picture of it *slaps head*. Take my word for it though, it is stunning! Thank you Gloomy! *Huggles*
Baggins Lover also left in there for me two of her handmade friends that came with Babies Katie and Susie! They are so cute. I haven't got a picture of these yet because as soon as I opened them, I popped them on the self next to my bunny and their pony buddies. I'll get a picture of them in a bit. Thank you so much Baggins!
I'm going to wait until the official convention raffle is finished before starting up the raffle for this. I need to pretty most of the ponies up and take really nice pictures before doing anything else anyway. I was thinking perhaps charging 50p for each ticket and offering discounts for people who buy a certain amount ie. buy 5, get one free etc.
If anyone has any suggestions about the raffle, please don't sit on your ideas. Pm me!
In the meantime, if anyone has anything pony related at all that they perhaps can't give away, or have made or have just been in their tradeboxes for a while, then please consider this raffle! I'll be rooting through my room to find anything I can to add to the booty, and anything else would be much appreciated. Remember, I'll be paying for the postage for the prizes once the raffle is over, so all the proceeds from this will go straight into the convention fund! If you have anything you think would make a great prize, just pm me for my address or alternatively, pm me with a nice picture of the item you wish to raffle off.
Phew, that's a lot of writing!! Talk about epic. Sorry 'bout that.... XD
Thanks again to everyone who made this possible, and don't forget to save your pennies for some tickets when I finally get the raffle underway!
Watch this space!
