$1.76 Postage = $1.76 Kindness (USA) #2

The first swap was fun – let's do it again.

Being on a tight budget these days, I've got to curb my swapping a bit. However, since I like coming home to a "happy" mailbox, I had to get creative and figure out ways to still do that. What I came up with is this: for the price of just $1.76, it's possible to send 4 envelopes of "happy mail" to 4 swap partners. For the cost of just 44 cents per envelope, we can easily brighten the days of 4 people with a cheerful letter, and still have room for including a flat surprise (a recipe, a bookmark, a note card, a postcard, stickers, etc.). And, for no additional $, we can decorate our envelopes (handmade out of decorative paper, draw/paint/color on a plain one, add some rubber stamped images, use fancy colorful lettering, use magazine letters to spell your partners' names, etc. – there are tons of ways to add pizzazz to your envelopes!).

If this sounds like fun to you, come on out & play. While this swap is sender's choice, I do encourage everyone to look at their partners' profiles for ideas on what kinds of surprises to include that might make their partners smile.

To reiterate:

• 4 partners
• One letter or note card written to each partner – perhaps you'll tell a little about you or your day, your holiday plans/traditions, your hobbies, etc. If you're crafty, feel free to make your own card; otherwise, store-bought is fine.
• Add a flat surprise
• Decorate your envelopes
• Have fun sending & receiving happy mail :-)
