Description:
Same guidelines, to the series of swaps, only we will do 15 entries for Feb, 15 for March, and 15 for April 45 entries in total You may add a few extra entries if you wish, or if u fall behind don't worry, add entries to the next month, but, please follow the send my date to the swap. For this swap we will not be adding anything from our day, since postage is going up, we will mail book rate if possible. EDIT 1-3-2019 With this series of entries I decided to focus on writing, and not on the extras, or the decoration, I want these swaps to be for writing not decor, or goodies. SO, I decided to NOT include something from our day, instead write a paragraph about your day or a poem, anything you want to share. EDIT 1-25-19 YOU Can still decorate your journal, or include something for your day, this is all senders choice. The price of shipping is going up, I am trying to make this as cheap as possible. No mini journals 3.5x5 A paragraph in length is fine, if you have something you don't want to write about your day, just put in a poem or recipe, i will allow only a few entries maybe 2 or 3 out of the 45. Any questions just ask.

I've been doing these, I think, for a year, I'm getting addicted -- but I've always been a daily-diary writer, since grade school.

I am in the one that started in November and I am hooked! I hope it's okay that some days are longer than a paragraph...

No problem love longer entries

What size is a mini journal?

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 01/15/2019 #

smaller than a 5x7, not sure the size of mini ones? i think 3x5???

pynart2 01/18/2019 #

You said a mini then you said no mini , so what size are we to use??????

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 01/23/2019 #

No mini journals, mini are smaller than 5x7 or the ones that fit in your pocket. Any other journal is fine, I usually use a composition notebook, or the ones from the Dollar Tree with quotes on them, those are fine too. you caneven make your own journal if you choose too.

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 01/23/2019 #

I just checked mini ones are 3.5 x 5

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 01/23/2019 #

I just checked mini ones are 3.5 x 5 too small and you have to write smaller and it wouldn't be comfortable

pynart2 01/23/2019 #

I'm new to this so I write 15 entries for Feb, March and April for a total of 45. And each entry should be at least a paragraph..

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 01/23/2019 #

@pynart2 you got it, easy peasy, maybe share a recipe, or poem? It's all senders choice, theirs no wrong way of doing it. Date your entries.

Kind of disappointed about the change in the journal/diaries. If I knew I would of dropped out before partners. I like putting designs on pages too.

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 01/25/2019 #

Ladies, you can still decorate your journal, this is all senders choice, same rules apply you are not going to be rated down if it's decorated

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 01/25/2019 #

JUst remember ladies, if you include something from your day, it's no longer media rate shipping it's 1 st class.

I still mail mine media mail and they took it last time V, It's still a journal and I think as long as the items are stuffed within the pages we should be safe right?

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 02/19/2019 #

@aligurl75 I rec'd no problem. I mailed a journal media mail and for some reason my partner had to pay for postage owed? I have no clue as to why, but u never know?

ButterflyLover 05/ 1/2019 #

Dropped at PO. Sending @DixieDiane tracking info. Due in Saturday.

DixieDiane 05/ 2/2019 #

Some can sneak it thru media mail, but nothing hand written or advertising can be in pkg I believe. That's the way it used to be anyways

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET 05/ 4/2019 #

Mailed mine via media mail, i will message my partner when i get home
