Gift Exchanges

GIFT EXCHANGES

TABLE GIFTS – at Saturday Night Dinner

You have the option to sit at a 1:12 or a 1:48 scale table.

Increase your own and everybody else’s enjoyment of the Gathering by following the Saturday night tradition of exchanging small gifts with the seven other people at your table.

Please remember what scale table you are sitting at and have gifts in that scale.

While a value of $5-$7 is suggested, most are handmade items which are valued by the recipients as a wonderful reminder of the Gathering.

EXCHANGE GIFT (Bring a gift – Get a gift)

You can bring a gift, for another lucky miniaturist, of a value around $20-$25.

Bring a miniature item in 1:12 OR 1:48 scale (but not both) and you will receive in exchange a gift in the same scale.

It should be something that is ready to be added to a collection or display. No books, tools, or kits please.

Be sure to bring your exchange gift to the Registration table on Friday afternoon to hand in when you register.

MINI SWAPS (Bring 10 – Get 10)

The swap will be offered in two scales – 1:12 and 1:48. You may participate in either swap or both if you wish.

Here is how it works. You bring 10 identical items in your chosen scale. You can make them yourself or they can be purchased from another artisan, but they must be handcrafted. When the swap is finished, you will have 10 different items in your chosen scale.

• The swaps should be something you would be thrilled to receive.
• A value of around $5-$7 each is a good guideline.
• It is not necessary for them to be theme related.
• Your swap items should be different from your table gifts so no one receives duplicate items.
• Swaps should be individually packaged in bags or small containers with your name on each package.
• No kits or printies or dollar store items, please.

Be sure to bring your swaps to the Registration table and hand them in when you register.
