Recently, I participated in an "excess of everything" swap and my partner sent me a huge envelope of friendship books, sheets, sticker books, and envelopes. I don't want these sitting around here, they need to get home to their people!! So, off they go. This is my first time participating in this kind of thing so any tips anyone wants to post in the comments,please feel free. Send up to 5 friendship books (FSB)/sheets of any kind to 2 partners. Make a new one or send already traveled ones, just get them moving. Try to keep them small enough to send in a standard greeting card size envelope to keep the postage down. To make a FSB, just use some cardstock, folded in half about 3X3 or 4x4 finished, stable 3-4 blank pages. Decorate the covers, include your contact info for it's return and any other info you want people to share with you. I think the idea is that the person receives it back with info about people they can create pen pals or swap pals with. A sheet is just a lovely piece of paper, same idea, people decorate a portion of it with their contact info, send to the next person and when it is full, it goes back to the owner. Sticker books are similar to the standard FSB, but you add more papers and the receiver decorates a whole sheet with stickers and their contact info. Sticker bags have a little blurb about putting so many stickers in, take a few out, add your mailing labels, take a few out, sign your name on the back and send home when full. Envelopes are smallish envelopes where people can actually put some of their own mailing labels inside so the creator can use them to send you goodies. So send one of each, make one of each, whatever, I just want to get these moving! Have fun. Please have a rating of 4.9 or higher and have completed at least 20 type 3 swaps. newbies welcome with well filled out profile, I will check. This is a great way to build contacts and get opportunities to play! |
