For this swap, send your partner:

TEA

-5 individually wrapped factory sealed teabags (no old expired teas or powdered mix type)

-pack the tea bags so that you don't destroy the packaging because most of us collect them.

-teas are sender's choice but try to send nice teas that your partner will like, and make sure to look out for allergies

===============================

MAIL ART

-decorate the envelope you are sending with a Tea theme. Tea cups, tea leaves, teapots etc... You can draw on it, color or paint, make a collage, or do rubber stamping. Use ephemera's like tea tags or wrappers.Put effort in it. No plain sticker slapping sloppy decos. It's MAIL ART after all so make it look like ART ;-) refer to image above

===============================

Rate a 5 if you get a decorated envelope and 5 individually factory sealed teabags.

PLEASE always COMMUNICATE with your partner or me before leaving a bad rating for anyone. This is an INTERNATIONAL swap so please be patient for international mail to arrive. It may take up to a minimum of 3 weeks.

Have Fun! *image from https://thepostmansknock.com/illustrated-teapot-envelope-art-tutorial/

I'm so sad that the minimum requirement is a 5.... I have one single 3 from almost a year ago and for that I'll never ever have a 5 rating ever again. :( wish I could join.

Hi @Rcinderella7 I'm so sorry to hear about your bad rating experience. This is my first time hosting a swap since quite a few years back so I'm being cautious hence the 5 requirement. But perhaps I will tweak the minimum requirement in the next one, since I'm planning on making this a series. I hope you get your ratings up too. It really wasn't fair for you. Hugs <3
