Description:

Hi there, swappish folks. Let's recycle & decorate those business reply envelopes (#10 & other sized BREs in USA).

Supplies: the business reply envelopes that come in the postal mail with your bills and not-for-profit gift requests.

Decorate the envelopes so they are beautiful and can still go through the regular mail. Make sure any previous shipping addresses, symbols, bar codes, etc. are covered up.

Add some combination of collage, stickers, drawing, a clean blank spot for address, a personalized return address, to make your set of envelopes prettier and more interesting than they were when kindly supplied for free by our organizational friends.

Three partners, three envelopes to each, all swappers welcome & I'll give a holler if I need help angeling :-)

Fine print: enclose at least one item that relates to your partner's profile.

Happy swapping!

sounds fun and different! I hope it's international, it should be inexpensive due to the small envelope size!

This sounds like a lot of fun! Unfortunately, I'm out of town for a few days in between when partners are assigned and when the swap has to be sent, so I can't participate this time, but I hope you do it again.
