Description:
I thought this might be a fun thing to do! Go to your profile and click on your ratings, and then scroll all the way to the bottom. For some of you, the bottom might be farther down than you remember. Pick a swap that you participated in your very first full month. Of course, to be fair, you wouldn't want to choose a simple postcard swap, but something with a creative element to it. Prepare that swap for your partner, and send it with a note which includes the swaps name, the date, and partner in that long-ago swap. Tell a little about that swap, whether you liked it, was it more fun the first time, or the second? Do you remember what you got from your partner? I'll give plenty of time for us to do this, because it might be hard to choose which one to do! The good news is that you can start it as soon as you choose; you don't have to wait until I assign partners. Have fun! Holler at me if there is something not explained properly.

I really like this idea. I've not seen this done before.

Does everyone know they need to click on "View all" to get to the bottom? Looking back all those years, the swaps I did in the first month were not all that creative because I was very timid about my crafting abilities. I'll see what I can come up with though because this sounds very fun!

I was timid, too, Joan. My first hosted swap was for a postcard!

I made a slight change in the swap description. Choose a swap from your very first full month here. I saw that Rose has only one swap her first month, and I want everyone to be able to have choices!

Oh, this is a great idea which I’ve also not seen before. I’m in…now off to check out what I was swapping back in 2009. 😎

Great idea, but my first month's were trading postcards, notecard and letter writing. I think it took about a year till I did some Mail art! Oh my!

Jo, I'm messaging you! I'll do a private swap with you for the year and month of your choice, how's that?
