Description:

Hideous, just plain hideous postcards. I’m too cheap to toss them and too embarrassed to send them. We all have them. They are lurking here and there just begging to be mailed like toys on the island of misfit toys. So, why not have some fun with them.

Some I bought and then got home and gasped when I took them out of the bag and some came in lot boxes or postcard books. Some I just busted up laughing over their hideousness.

So, round up 3 hideous postcards and send them off - naked and with a nice or funny note on the back of the postcard. Be sure to put the name of the swap – Hideous Postcard January 2010 – and your swapbot name on your postcards.

This will be a really easy swap & newbies (with a filled out profile) are welcome. Please - No recent no~sends or 1's need apply. Don’t want anyone disappointed about not getting their hideous postcard. That could be devastating.

You will have 3 partners to whom you'll send 1 postcard of your choice each. Store bought cards only.

Mailing due date is January 27th. It's not like we have to go out and buy some hideous postcards. ☺

Happy thoughts - twinb

Naked - Addressed and stamped and mailed - NOT in an envelope. Be sure to put name of swap and your swap-bot name on postcard.

This is such a funny and cute swap idea ... I love it :)

Thanks @bunigrrl I should have everyone send me pictures of the hideous postcards they get. And then mail them out. Could be hillarious. HAPPY THOUGHTS - Carol (twinb)

Send them naked?

twinb 01/19/2010 #

Sorry Andrea - yes naked. Send them naked with a note on the back. No envelope. Believe me, I have some that are so hideous - one in particular - that it would be embarrassing to pass them along in an envelope.

You know, I would kind of like to see all the hideous cards too ... I enjoy a good laugh :)

This was a great swap, everyone had such different ideas of what "hideous" was! I really loved one of the postcards I got, thought it was very funny.
