Description:

I searched for a swap like this and couldn't find one, so I decided to make one because I really think this would be fun.

We'll write at least a 2 page letter to our partner telling a little about ourselves, interests, hobbies, etc, using reclaimed/recycled materials only.

We could cut apart a cereal box and write on the blank side, or write on a paper bag, or on the backside of an old grocery list, the idea here is to reuse and be eco-friendly! You also must make the envelope you mail it in as well! You can find envelope making instructions here

and here

PLEASE make sure you do not use soiled/stained/smelly items for your letter. Keep it clean!

One letter, at least 2 full "pages", to one partner. Get creative and decorate your letter if you wish! You could find a long term pen-friend here!

Sorry, no unrated swappers. Rated swappers must have no recent no-sends and must be rated at least 4.90. If anyone wishes to do an international version PM me. Thanks!

I am booked-up right now, but I will be looking for a part 2 or 3 of this swap in the future. Great idea!

ETA: Please be sure your envelopes are strong enough to withstand a mauling through the postal machines.

Extras such as stickers, recipes, etc are up to sender.
