Description:

This is an introductory swap for the new Manic Magpies group! We'd love for you to join us for other swaps listed in the group, but in the meantime have fun with this puzzly twist!

Buy a smallish puzzle (between 20 and 100 pieces), assemble it, and copy a favorite poem onto the back. Then take it apart, put it back in the box, and mail the box to your partner! Easy peasy!

Some guidelines:

--- Dollar store puzzles are fine.

--- US only due to shipping cost. However, please feel free to host an Int'l version. If you host an International version I would appreciate if you promote the group also, or at least mention it.

--- Original or published poems are acceptable

--- Obviously use your best handwriting. Pretend it's a fifth-grade essay.

--- Not required, but how awesome to make the puzzle profile specific if you can arrange it!

Puzzle on!

Must have a 4.95 or higher with no recent 1s or 3s and no history of drama. Must have at least 10 rated Type 3 swaps.

And be sure to head over and join us at Manic Magpies for an Accordion Book and a Bucket List Newsletter swap!

what a cool idea! ... may i ask why it's restricted to the US?

@wm As I mentioned, sadly shipping costs. I had pictured sending it in the box which could get pretty spendy. Even an envelope would be fairly bulky and could get out of hand quickly. I'm going to think on it, but personally I'm really careful about international swaps that could potentially become packages. I'd love to see someone host an international version though.
