Comment: Envelope was sent 4/3/23 with no previous communication that they were going to be late.

Comment: I appreciate the effort you made to send me stuff. I was surprised (being a rather frugal swapper myself) at how much money was spent on postage for the envelope stuffed full of extras (9 forever stamps). But in all good conscience I must note here that the 3-rating is because the package was mailed quite late and with no communication about the late send. Regarding the deco, generally multiple stickered covers which is then covered with packing tape tend to be "friendship books", but decos don't have these things. It's understandable that you might not know this if you are new to deco swapping. Decos tend to be more art-quality. Here are a few examples of help with your next deco book creation https://www.flickr.com/photos/beafromsweden/albums/72157717533722797

Comment: I am unhappy to have to reject the decos you sent me for this swap. The swap calls for ONE ART deco. You sent me two decos and neither meet the swap requirements. One has 6 stickers on it (swap states no more than one sticker); the other is poorly made and the cello tape is coming off, pages are cut unevenly - neither are art decos. I cannot, in good conscious, either decorate these or send them to another swapper to do so and I will return these to you at my own cost. You also sent this swap a week late without any communication with me.
