Description:

You need to send 5 pieces of blue or primarily blue or with blue on it somewhere to your partner! Like ticket,teabag package odd blue punches-a sandwich bag of those would be one, a book cover, a blue crayon!! Do not send a gum wrapper that you picked off the street! No fair! Think clean stuff! If Post Office opens your pkg let them be impressed! Put your finds in a bag so that when partners are assigned you can send out fast!

Just a quick question, ... it has to be Ephemera right? Could you give a list of suggestions? It seems too vague for me and I don't want to end up sending the wrong things out >.<

I would like to join but am unsure like @newsong Is it anything blue?
Thanks!

I've done quite a few ephemera swaps; anything that is likely to be seen or used once and thrown away probably counts...I'd say magazine cutouts, junkmail pieces, paint chips (samples), candy wrappers, food labels, envelopes (security ones are often lined with blue), tags, sheets from notepads, used notecards (just the front, maybe?) or new ones could also work, unused decorative napkins, bits of wrapping paper...seed packets...As @knitmom states, keep it clean! Only clean wrappers etc. from products you've used yourself, and nothing torn, sticky, icky or stained! Hope these suggestions help; just my personal take on the possibilities. I'll run it by our swap host just to be sure...

Please do not send anything to TEXAS that will melt. Please.

I second that, grandmaroro - and I would think that no one wants to receive any kind of junk that you'd just want to throw away! LOL

Personally, I'd LOVE a book cover, bus tickets, anything like that. The more vintage or foreign, the better :) Also, PLEASE nothing that smells of smoke or has anything to do with smoking/cigarettes. Thank you :) :)
