We all know by now that Mod Podge is evil. But have you seen what it can do with paper napkins?

What Can you do with them???

 

 

 

And this just begins to scratch the surface. It's amazing what can be done with a Paper Napkin! They can be used for ATC backgrounds; decoupaged onto wood, metal, or chipboard; folded into flower shapes; adhered into junk or smash journals; used in resin jewelry; and so much more!

The only problem with paper napkins is that you must buy full packages of them and they're all the same design. Who needs that?

 

So let's swap out paper napkins! The postage should be easy on the ol' wallet.

Send three different napkins to three partners; that's Nine in all (though you only need three different designs). They can be any size, just make sure they're of nice quality and that the design is printed on all or most of the napkin; the kind with only the edges decorated aren't really suitable for happy crafting. You can certainly send more than three if you like, but it's not required. And please use a good-sized envelope so the napkins don't have to be folded (that is, folded more times than they already are).

They MUST be of different designs. NO plain colors allowed, they must have a design on them. NO plain solid napkins. NO advertising napkins (such as napkins that have McDonalds advertising or the like, unless you ASK your swap partner in advance - and they say it's ok).

NO Butterflies! No Birds! No Flowers! No Childrens Party Designs!

 

THIS SWAP IS SENDER'S CHOICE...

 

You may want to package the paper napkins in a plastic baggie to protect from the elements and overzealous postal workers.

Since this swap isn't profile-specific, you can start stuffing napkins in envies right away, and I'll make the send-by date fairly quick so we can all start enjoying our new napkins. More happy mail for the stash! Whoo-hoo!

 

Newbies welcome, but please have at least one snail mail swap under your belt and don't flake. I will angel any swaps flaked on.

If there are any questions or comments, please feel free to email me, or comment below.

May I request no children's party napkins? As it's not in the swap description I won't rate down, but if at all possible I just don't use juvenile designs so I'd prefer anything else. Thanks!

Why no flowers, birds or butterflies?

Because we are looking for the uncommon. Those 3 motifs are everywhere. I am hoping for seahorses and/or teapots, but we shall see. :-). I love happy mail.
