Valentine’s Day is coming soon and to celebrate that amongst the Shadowhunters fandom here, I thought it would be nice to have a Secret Valentine’s Exchange*! The goal is to facilitate a gift exchange between people in the Shadowhunters fandom in order to spread some love. Participants will create a gift (e.g. gifs, fic, fanart, etc.) for another blogger and will receive a special gift in return!
Follow @shadowhuntersexchange.
Reblog this post to spread the word.
You must be able to make a gift for another user (see gift guidelines here and below for more information).
You must have a tumblr account.
Please don’t reveal yourself to your giftee until your gift is posted (it’s a secret exchange! :) but definitely feel free to send messages on anon to your giftee and talk to them! On that note, please make sure your anonymous option is turned on (if you have it off for specific reasons please indicate this in the “Anything else?” on the form and we can try to work around it as needed).

Can be but doesn’t have to be Valentine’s Day-themed (or specific to a certain ship). In the message with your assignment there will be some characters/ships/requests your giftee likes (as well as ones they don’t want). You are not required to incorporate every request, this is just meant to inspire you and help you create your gift.
Please tag your giftee directly in the text of your gift when posting on the 14th.
Please tag us directly in your gift(s) or tag your posts with #shvdayexchange so it can be reblogged here.
