We will each be sending each other 1 envelope of goodies up to 1 oz. that only takes 1 forever stamp to send (USPS guidelines are posted below). In order to receive a 5, items should meet the criteria of being related to our partner's profile interests and be thoughtfully put together. Some ideas for items that will be under the weight limit and machinable for the USPS single-stamp rate: ATCs ATC blanks inchies stickers bookmarks ribbon fabric scraps recipes stamped images special mailing labels for your partner swap cards created for your partner stationery and notecards greeting cards envelope seals die cuts book pages vintage paper ephemera designer papers for scrapbooking/crafting postage stamps tags and blank labels window clings washi tape samples journal cards high-quality images, words, or quotes for collages, journaling, or smashbooks poems, stories,photos, quotes, or images you think they'd like a nice letter Here are the USPS criteria for a single stamp: First-Class letter dimensions: Rectangular (NOT SQUARE) At least 3-1/2 inches high X 5 inches long X .007 inch thick No more than 6-1/8 inches high X 11-1/2 inches long X 1/4 inch thick Length is the dimension parallel to the address. Maximum weight is 1 ounce for a 49 cent (forever) stamp. Letters that are considered nonmachinable are subject to a surcharge. Square envelopes, envelopes which are very rigid, or envelopes which have buttons or clasps that might catch on machinery are considered nonmachinable. |
