Description:

For this swap you will need to fill an envelope with at least 4 ounces of goodies...random goodies! You can use any size envie you want, just make sure you have 4 ounces in there. This is a requirement. You can check out your partners profile to send them stuff they would like, or you can just send some extra stuff you have. Either way is perfectly okay! I do want to clarify that SENDERS CHOICE applies here. This is for you to send items you already have extras of or that you won't use as long as they are in good condition. They can be new, they can be used, but make sure they are in good condition.

Some ideas for you:
* yarn
* knitting supplies
* crocheting supplies
* postcards
* stickers
* brads
* eyelets
* greeting cards
* charms
* epherema (old tickets, dictionary pages, foreign language sheets, sheets of music, foreign money, playing cards, etc)
* ribbons
* bookmarks (free or homemade)
* buttons
* scrapbook papers or embellishments
* beads or beading supplies
* recipe cards
* old photos or old negatives
* journals (any size, even if you want to fill out prompts on the pages)
* journal prompts
* quotes
* journal supplies (pens, markers, pencils, etc)
* books
* altered books, tins, etc
* whimsey jars
* matchboxes
* handmade items
* craft supplies(felt, embroidery floss, feathers, etc)
* any kind of drink (tea, coffee, cocoa, koolaid, crystal light, etc)
* fabric(charms, scraps, strings, yardage, FQs, strips, etc)
* sewing supplies (thread, needles, bobbins, thimbles, velcro, pins, etc)
* rubber stamps
* movies/dvds (new or burned)

Make sure to tape the edges of your envelopes. Fully stuffed envies have a tendency to get battered around and may end up with one side or more tore and you don't want to chance having your items get lost. If you want to send in a larger envelope, you are more then welcome to. Make sure your envelope weighs 4 ounces or more. This is a requirement!

Newbies are allowed with a filled out profile. I reserve the right to ban at my discretion. No one allowed with any recent 1's or 3's in the last 6 months. All others must have a rating of 4.95 or higher.

If you have any questions feel free to ask away. I will be making this one of my reoccuring swaps, so if you can't make this one, don't worry it will come around again in a couple weeks.

Do you have any idea how heavy 4 oz. is? I can't picture it...Like the weight of an apple or a book...Haha I just need an idea and don't have a scale! <3

weird...i just put my cell phone on my postal scale to get an idea after reading your question and it weighs 4.1 oz.....so now you know :)

This sounds like a fun swap! I'm a newbie and would like to join but it says I don't meet the requirements.

just went to the USPS site and 4 oz. should cost you a minimum of $1.39 to mail.
