Ever have a day when you need a little extra boost of positivity? This swap was created for exactly that sort of feeling! The basics: Each person sends one large envelope, full of seven sealed envelopes. Each individual envelope will contain an inspirational item -- a quote, an excerpt from a book, an inspiring message, etc. Your swap partner can choose when to open the envelopes -- all at once, one a day, or can even save them for an especially stressful day. What to do: 1. Create seven items that can go inside an envelope. Envelopes and items can be of varied sizes. Items should be created with the intent to inspire -- whether they be a quote, a word, an excerpt, etc. The "what" is wide open to interpretation. Be creative! Make these pieces fun to view, fun to open, fun to receive -- but most of all, make them inspiring. 2. Place each item inside an envelope and seal it. Feel free to be creative with the envelope, too! 3. Number each envelope, one through seven. 4. Place the seven numbered envelopes inside a larger envelope. 5. Mail to your swap partner! Your swap partner can then open the envelopes as they want. All at once -- or saving them for a day when a little extra inspiration is needed. Tips: * This is sender's choice (ie, not a profile-based swap), but feel free to read your partner's profile for ideas. If they're a busy mother of 3, maybe one - or several! - of your envelopes has quotes and inspiration about parenting. * Have fun making the items! Make them inspirational to look at, as well as inspirational in meaning. * Please rate as soon as possible after receiving your items. If you decide to wait to open your envelopes, please feel free to alter your rating later to include additional feedback if desired, or a heart. Participants: * Must have an overall rating of 4.8 and above * Must have completed at least 15 mail swaps ~~~~~~ Enjoy swapping! | |
