Description:

I saw this in a public swap and loved doing it so much that I wanted to bring the swap to this group! It is a fun way to leave wonderful notes of encouragement, laughter or blessings out into the world!

I love leaving notes for strangers, and thought maybe it would be fun to have some notes go out to another part of the world. If anyone else does this or wants to give it a try, here's the idea:

  1. Get a pad of sticky notes (or some note paper and put double sided tape on the back that can be peeled away.) Minimum 10 sheets/pieces.

  2. Write whatever you like on them! (Notes of encouragement, your favorite Bible scripture, random facts, jokes, a mini letter...)

  3. Send them away to your swap partner with a note inside the envelope. If you have an experience with doing this before, tell your partner about it!!

  4. When you receive the notes from your partner, go out into the world and leave them somewhere where people will see. (Stick one in a Bible at church, leave one on a table for a waitress, stick one on a drink machine, leave one in your mailbox for your mailman/lady to pick up - the possibilities are endless!)

  5. (Optional): Let your partner know what happened with their notes, where they were left etc.

This is a fun swap that requires very little money to send out and could easily put a smile on possible TEN people's faces!

I found something like this in a library book once and it really did make my day!

Love this idea!!!...I really am missing out on fun swaps :( I'm still without internet at my new house so don't dare commit at this time.
