I'm an avid crafter as anyone on the show your crafts thread would know. I love creating things but sometimes need a reason to make something. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in forming a gift making and sharing circle (like a secret santa). Any advice on how to go about this welcome.

I was thinking I could collect in the names of everyone who is interested and hand these out to other participants. Then we would each make something Easter or Guinea pig (or both) themed for the other person. Spending no more than £10 on materials. Then we would pick a date for us to all post our gifts to the other person and wait for our gift to arrive.

The main thing I haven't worked out yet is how to manage addresses I understand just handing out your adress to strangers over the Internet is a big no no but I'm not sure how else we could make it work. It would also probably only work for people in the UK so nobody is getting stuck with crazy high postage costs.
 
It sounds like a lovely idea, I unfortunately don't have the time at the moment but I would maybe consider it later in the year.
 
It sounds a great idea, although I would personally get more out of it if we were to pick a Guinea pig charity as the benefactor for a certain period and make something that they could either sell, auction or used for their rescue?

I do make fleecy items to support two Guinea pig charities and get pleasure knowing they get a little money for my efforts 😊
