Description:
You will have until Saturday to sign up for this, partners will be assigned Sunday and should be in the mail by Wednesday at the latest! In this swap you will create a Deco Book (a mini book to be passed around through the mail and filled up with drawings from people around the world. They may put their address along with their drawing. You put your own address on the back and when it is full it will get returned to you) for your partner. Themes are open. You can write on it what you'd like for them to draw inside, or leave it open themed so they can draw whatevers on their mind! Feel free to be creative and use cute sheets. I normally put 8-10 in mine, but you can put however many you like. Just remember, the more you put, the longer it will take to get back to you. Nothing really thick and heavy though, because then it's a pain for postage. No newbies please. Rating of 4.5 or higher with no recent no sends. Happy Swapping!

How does it get passed on? Through other swaps? Or added into a swap you are already sending? I'm a newbie at this.

Okay, so I make a Deco for my partner and send it to them?

Nothing thick and heavy... so nothing like tiny cabochons or sewing ribbon on the cover?

I usually put about 5 pages because people usually use the front and back, so that means it will pass through about 10 people. (If they sign one person per page, which I think is the usual.)

I think this is just making the blank book, correct?

Thank you Artistic :)

Moxsapphir - Yes :) You can decorate the cover and the back if you like though. Just be sure to put your address on the back so it can get returned to you when it's done!

I'm still confused as to when the books get passed on from person to person.. Sorry I'm new to this!

Well after you complete this swap, you will have someone elses' Deco book. You can either join (or make) another swap like this, so it gets passed on to someone else, or some people have pen pals that they regularly trade Deco's and FB's with.

A deco package went out to my partner this afternoon. Enjoy!
