Description:

So the idea is to make a snail mail kit. This is not about throwing a few pieces of paper in an envelope, it’s about making a kit. Your kit must contain at least 5 items – this is the absolute minimum.

A kit could contain:-

• Letter sets

• gel pens

• envelopes

• writing paper

• funky paperclips

• stickers

• coloured paper

• post it notes

• postcards

• pens

• pencils

• handmade swap cards with your partners name on

• envelope book (see - http://www.marthastewart.com/266388/envelope-books)

• rubber stamps

• blank cards

• deco tape

• washi tape

• plastic wallet

• address book

• birthday book

• high lighter pens

• notecards

• address labels/stickers

You should put it all in a box or a plastic wallet or make a fabric pouch or a tin ….you get the idea.

Minimum rating of 4.96, must have completed at least 20 type 3 swaps. I will also look closely at ratings. If there are lots of 1s and 3s I reserve the right to remove you. Please don’t join this swap knowing you don’t make the requirements as I will remove you.

Most importantly have fun

Just to clarify is this all new unopened packaged items or just a nice fresh variety new from personal stash?

@pinkstrawberryz It doesnt have to be all new. It would be nice to send a mix though.

Yes def without a doubt :)! Just checking..and to clarify I would not send dirty used items lol it would maybe be a duplicate of stash supply :) thank you love this swap

I love the envelope book idea - I'd love to see a swap just for that!

I would love to join this, but alas I don't meet the number of "3's" at 20. I am particular about these types of swaps. If you choose you can send me a message if I am able to join. Check out the ratings on my other 3 swaps.

Thanks

I am in the same boat as you d2photo...I only joined about a month ago and only have one. I have signed up for some others but they won't be done in time. I wish I could join this fun swap as well :) I understand not wanting people to flake but I think they should give newbies and not so newbies with good ratings a chance to build their profiles up. :)

@d2photo and @Icygr7 I feel your frustrations as I was in your place not to long ago. I joined enough type 3 swaps that I could get into the ones needing 10, 20, 50 type 3 swaps. Keep swapping and you will get there :)
