If you look on Pinterest and search Pocket Letters you will see so many examples of what they can look like. The possibilities are endless. This round we will do a Christmas theme... partners may choose to do the religious aspect for this round. I don't usually do religious things in my crafting, but I know that others do and since it is a holiday that is tied to Christian origins please only join if you are okay with religious words or beliefs in the pockets. If you would like to join a strictly secular holiday pocket letter swap PLEASE send me a private message and we can do a private swap of that theme. :)

1. You will use a clear plastic 9 pocket baseball card holder to hold your letter/decor.

2. One side will be the main decorative side and the backside should have decor but can also be a place to tuck some surprises/stationary supplies etc.

3. All participants are required to include an actual 1 page (or more) letter to your partner folded up and placed into one of the 9 pockets.

4. When you mail this to your partner you should be able to fold the page into thirds and slip it into a long legal sized envelope if it is not too fat. Or mail flat in a manilla envelope. Please take to the post office to ensure correct amount of postage and package envelope with clear packaging tape to strengthen the envelope.

4. Here is a list of other types of things you could put in some of the pockets-

*TAGS *TEA BAG *STICKERS *LETTER *PAPERCLIPS *SHAKERS *EPHEMERA *RIBBON/LACE *MINI ZINE *HOLIDAY JOURNAL CARDS *MAGNET *WASHI
