Description:

You've heard of sticker bags and label bags, let's try ATC bags!

If you already have an established one to pass along from the other swaps, that's great! If not, here's how to start one:

Take a small envie and write your name and address on one side of it. On the other side, write instructions such as "take out two ATCs and add three". Have numbered lines for persons who have participated to sign on. Indicate that the last person to sign should send it home. You can include any other instructions, such as whether or not the ATCs should be made by the swapper or if you accept pass alongs. Put your three (or however many you indicated) ATCs inside the envie. I usually start a new bag with a few extras to give the first recipient more from which to choose. This is your ATC bag.

Put the ATC bag (envie) inside another envie to mail to your swap partner.

You will receive a bag from your other partner. You will select ATCs to keep, and add additional ones to the bag. Hold onto the bag until another swap opportunity. Then you will send it along its way.

Any questions? Just post them below!

What a fabulous idea!

It is a good idea but I wouldn't have any other people to mail them to once I got my partners :( I need some people who would like to swap them.

@swappintoya you just join in the next ATC bag swap #8 as far as I understand.

@Wenturner71 - there is not enough time for me to join into this one after the next one. It is an international swap, and shipping usually takes 2 weeks but it can be up to 3 weeks to/from international destinations. If #6 only needs to sent by July 20th, then I may only get my bag around second week in August. I will therefore not be able to join this swap, as the deadline could be before I even receive my bag!! ALSO the person receiving from me, might not have got theirs yet! I would recommend doing the swaps (date items must be sent by) about 4 weeks apart, in order to allow the bags to travel internationally.

I'm going to take a chance and join this one :)

You can always make a new one to send off, then your #6 bag should be back for #8 swap, your #7 will be back for #9, etc.
