Forums » Art & Creativity » Art Swap/Secret Santa Planning

Hello, lovely peoples! :p Does anyone want to help me design such an event? I'm sure most of you probably know that a Secret Santa event involves giving someone a present after you've been given their name randomly. You don't tell them, and they don't tell you who they've got, and somebody has got your name for it, too.

For this event, I was thinking something along the lines of... From sometime in November to December, people would have time to sign up for a list which would then be randomly shuffled. Then, names would be given out and art pieces assigned- maybe the list would include separations between those who want to give/receive black and white art, and those who want to receive/give colored art... they'd probably all be pretty simple, though. And then, from a certain day in early December until maybe late December or January or something, people could have time to draw a sketch or something! I think it would probably be themed to make it easier, and assignments might even include a specific thing! Like I said earlier, maybe there could be a list of preferences. Like, 'cup of cocoa', or 'rainy England day', or 'puppies and kittens'. So! Any thoughts?
Oh, also, I think probably people would have to agree to actually give the art to the person... For their personal use! It is a gift after all. But I suppose signatures would have to be clearly included... Then again, maybe that would take away from the Secret Santa part of it... :V

Any thoughts, suggestions, etc.?
