Bento Month (August)

New rule: You need at least 5 - 5 with hearts that are type 3 swaps to participate in the monthly swap. A 4.9 rating or higher and no unresolved 3 or 1s from the past 6 months.

August is bento month that way you have new lunch box stuff for september. So get some kind of bento box for your partner along with other bento stuff like chop sticks, utensils, carrying bag, molds, recipes, candies to fit in the bento etc.

What you do? Send your partner $10 or more worth of stuff featuring the monthly theme (bento). You can send handmade stuff made by you but the value of the item = the value of the supplies used regardless of time spent or talents used (If you choose to send handmade I'd perfer you doing it cause you enjoy doing it not to save a few bucks).

This swap is senders choice however before you sent look at your swap. If it does not make you think "That's totally awesome, I wish I were sending to me!" then it is not ready to send yet. Add more Awesome. I'd like everyone to put effort into finding/making their items.

And of course you can check your partners profile (through it's not required) cause they may be like "I LOVE CHERRY BLOSSOMS!" and then you could go "HERE IS A CHERRY BLOSSOM BENTO!" and then maybe you get a heart. To get a 5 though you just need to send $10 worth of bento stuff.
