Description:

Who is not happy to find lovely mail in one's mailbox? Sometimes it can really make one's day and nothing is more frustrating than an empty mailbox. And sometimes I think beautiful mail may even make the mail carrier happy. I always imagine them smile when they find nice letters among all the bills and junks they deliver every day.

So this is for all the mailbox junkies, the ones who stalk their mail carrier and get frustrated when there is no personal, nice mail in their mailbox. This is for all those who wanna see their mailbox - and themselves, of course - happy.


WHAT TO DO?

1) Write a friendly letter (u can write about whatever u like) - should be at least a page long, anything else is regarded o be a note and not a letter to me. Introduce urself, tell about ur day, your dreams or whatever comes to ur mind.

2) Add 3 lil surprises (something small that fits a letter - e.g. postcard, notecard+envie, a tea bag, a sticker sheet, whatever u can think of.......) - I am not making this profile based since i want this to be an easy swap; but it sure helps to check ur partner's profile and find out what they like.

3) Decorate the envelope. Don't just send a plain envelope - make it a happy envelope that shows that special mail is there. Use whatever means to make it different from the envelopes we find in our mailboxes every day - just be creative.

Add extras if u feel like (optional).


If u get a letter with 3 lil surprises in a somehow decorated envie, rate with 5 - these are the must-haves.


To keep it simple and the postage low, everyone will have one partner.

Minimum rating 4.85. Newbies can join. Please - no flakers. It's a really simple swap and it's really meant to make someone's mailbox happy - so be fair and send a smile.

Are partners assigned on the 16th when the swap ends? I'm really excited to start on mine with so many ideas! :D

I'm still sorta new at this..... so quick question: Is this supposed to be a regular letter sized envelope? or as long as it's an envelope and not a box, it's still an 'flat' mail?

I've already got my ideas for decorating the outside though either way! :) It'll be fun to fill the inside too!

KUTEnKRAFTii 11/14/2011 #

Yes, it is a swap type 2. So any kind of envelope as long as it classifies under flat mail.

I'm excited too for this! There are soo many ideas! Happy Swapping <3
