Description:

Thank You for taking a look at this Fast Friday Quick Swap. This is a fun senders choice swap, with a quick turn round.
Once you sign up, you can get to work on stuffing your toilet paper roll as full as you can get it with fun stationery, planner & crafty kinds of goodies. Think about all the neat stuff you can try and fit into one! The possibilities are practically endless.. Some examples are: brads, buttons, bows, ribbon, lace, trim, rolled paper, stickers, clips, flowers, twine, washi samples, ephemera, stamps, candies, mini gel pens, mini mechanical pencils, erasers, page flags, beads, charms and so much more that I am not even thinking of, but YOU could! Just make sure you STUFF THAT SUCKER!!
Now once it is filled to the brim, write on the outside of your roll the swap name, and your swap-bot name & wrap it securely so nothing falls out and (I usually just encase it in a layer of saran wrap.) Then roll the whole shebang in a few layers of pretty wrapping paper or card stock, address and mail it! Thats IT! Fun, right?!?
All swappers are welcome with at least 4 completed swaps & a well filled out profile. This is a USA only swap, due to the slightly increased cost of postage.
This swap will be moving to a group only swap, next week, so If you would like to join the Fast Friday Quick Swaps group, please come by and apply!

Such a fun idea! I do have a couple questions though.....Do we use only TP roll (maybe 2) or could it be larger like paper towel (if we want to send extra)? Do we mail them as a roll or slip the roll into an envelope?

If you want to go big, Love, By all means, you may go larger and upgrade to a paper towel roll. (I have send one that was a wrapping paper tube, lol, & that mailmistresses face was PRICELESS, lol), Just not smaller, thanks... and Yes. Send it as a roll, lol. That's half of the fun for me.. I like to deck them out in fun paper or washi and stickers or maybe make them look like they have grafiti on them.. anything that will make the mail carrier gawk at its awesomness and the receiver to swoon over when they get it.

I love mail art too! I actually had a package delivered today and our mail lady commented that she loved to see the things decked out and where all they come from when she delivers my mail. So, it's HAPPY MAIL to everyone that handles it :) Thanks for replying I didn't want to break the swap rules :)
