OK.... I'm in the UK and have never heard of these. Can you explain please?

A labelbag is an envelope, fillede with adresslabels. It would also say for who it's made, and who has made it. On the envelope it could f.ex say: "Take 1 label from each and make new bags, add 5 of your own labels. #5 send home" What you must do then is take 1 label of each person who has signed the bag, and make similar bags for them. You also have to put 5 of your own labels in the bag. Then you'll sign the bag and send it to another swapper. If you'r #5 to sign, you must send it to the person the bag is made for. This person will then make new bags of all the labels in the bag.

OK thanks for explaining.... sounds a bit complicated for me!!!

10 labelbags x 5 labels each x 3 partners = 150 labels?

And is not a bit circled up in your description? I mean you don't have to make a new labelbags from those labels you took out of the bag - you can use them in friendbooks, journal or whatever, right? And the person the bag is made for doesn't have to make a new bag after re-recieving the bag, right?

Or do I have it wrong? Thaks for clearing things up :)

I'm sorry, I still don't understand. Is this sort of like a friendship book? Or more of a round robin?

Hello all, Dont know if this will help but here is what one of my label bags I have sitting around here says:

"take two labels from each entrant and add in 10 of your own. Make new Label bags, Sticker bags, FBs or Slams. Sign the back. # 5 send home to owner"

Not sure if that makes it any easier or not but hopefully that helps :)

lol sorry about that, I really need to read all the posts! It was already explained better than I just did! Sorry about that :D

HeideC 07/ 4/2007 #

What do you do with all the labels you end up with?

shellyh 07/ 4/2007 #

You make new labels bags with them. Though many label bags give you the choice to make a few different things with the labels that you took out :) Pretty much you make something with the labels you get and the ones you put in will be passed around, and people will be making you some as well. I hope Im not confusing you worse! :D

So it is a sort of chain letter?

Kessie 07/18/2007 #

I'm confused too - especially as I'm also from the UK and I don't know what an FB or a slam is...

twobluecrows 07/19/2007 #

"...A labelbag is an envelope, filled with address labels. It would also say for who it's made, and who has made it..."

I don't understand this swap at all either. What are the address labels? are they blank decorated stickers someone can put their own or someone else's address on for mailing something?

Are we expected to fill three envelopes with ten blank address labels to mail to our partners? Then what? We will get three of our own from our partners and end up with three envelopes of...what? And what for? I'm confused.
