Description:

Decos can get heavy so this is a swap for only ONE deco.
Established decos only ( at least 4 pages already made), high quality.
No homers unless you contact your partner to see if it's OK with them.

This is international so be sure you know what a deco is and that you understand the postage cost .

Because you need an established deco, you should already have one in your possession. That means a quick turnaround after signup date. Sign up by the Monday, send no later than Friday.

Because of postage costs I will not be able to angel . I will though be checking every one. Please don't sign up if you have any 1's that can be made good. I will consider those who have 3's, depending on their recent ratings and comments but remember the requirement is 4.98. No exceptions.
Newbies need to have been rated for 5 type 3 swaps and have some hearts and good comments .

As there are some post office machines that like to chew up flimsy envelopes, please use a strong envelope and use tape to reinforce the edges. For your own records it helps to photograph the contents and the envelope before posting.

A deco is a friendship type of small handmade book that is passed around to different people so they can each do a page of art work (collage,original drawing, painting or combination of these). When it is full it gets returned to the maker.
You need an established one for this swap which means it has already been passed on by 4 people.

This is from the swapbot FAQ.
Decos – A deco is similar to a friendship book and there are a wide variety of types. It is a bound book of pages which are sent around the world. The person that the book is “for” is usually listed on the cover and when the book becomes full it is sent back to them. Each person that receives and signs the deco will decorate one page according to the theme of the booklet (if there is one) and put their postal/email address and sign their name. Typically, each entrant in the “deco” must use one full page to express themselves. Glitter, sequins, feathers and other scrapbooking supplies are frequently used in “decos.” Despite the artistic expressions used in these types of friendship books, the basic rules of passing the friendship book to person to person is the same.

These days many people do not put their address because there are those who collect the names and addresses and sell them. You can do a page anonymously.
