December is almost (but not quite) here, and yet some people have already finished their quest to find a gift to give to their assigned recipient. Whoa! You know who you are, you awesome people! So this is a good chance to remind everyone about two important things for the actual giving part of the gift-giving:



Advice #1) The only time limit that everyone has is that they need to find and deliver their gift before December 25th. This means you are absolutely free to find and give your gift as early as you want, or you can wait until December 24th if you need extra time or wish to give your gift closer to the holidays. It's completely up to you for when you feel the time is right! Just keep in mind that even if you yourself give your gift fairly early, the Secret Santa working on your own gift might need a little more time, so please don't feel like you've been left out if you haven't received your own present just yet!

Advice #2) The best method of delivering a gift to your assigned recipient will vary depending on what you chose to give, and whether you wish to remain anonymous or not. If your gift is art or online gift card, then you can either ask me to provide them a link to the page if you want your identity kept secret, or you approach them directly to provide a link yourself if you don't mind introducing yourself. If your gift is a Steam game, you'll have to skip the anonymity and add them as a friend first, or else look into Steam keys if you wish to remain secret. Physical items shipped to an address work best with a tracking number, so that the person it is being shipped to can keep an eye out for any mysterious packages.



Whether you choose to deliver your present as secretly as a holiday ninja or offer it to them directly, just let me know when the time comes so that I can mark you off the list. And as always, I'm always willing to help if you need a helping paw or creative ideas. ^^
