Description:

Cheaper to move decos by flat package mail nowadays! Check the math...

Swap: Exchange 4-5 decos to one partner (more if your partner is willing) in a large envelope. The flatter the better. This is US only due to international rates. No last pagers or homers for Europe or Asia, but are permitted if the deco has several pages left. Passers allowed. Limit One new deco can be added to the package.


Deco rules for making new decos:

  • Make the deco in booklet form, meaning you open the book and pages are attached inside. No books with pages attached in one corner.

  • No staples may be used when making decos. Please use tiny brads, ribbon, string, etc.

  • All decos should have at least 3 FLAT design elements/items to your decorating. (Ex: die cuts, ribbon, washi, vellum, one (1) sticker only, etc). This will allow the deco to be mailed cheaply and have a greater ability to be traded in future swaps.

  • Art decos can have hand-painted or drawn elements but it is not a requirement. Compared to 'friendship books' or "sticker slapped decos" Art decos are more High Quality with a very polished appearance.

  • Use sturdy paper with paper cut straight.

  • Things to avoid: enamel dots, gems, buttons, 3D foam stickers, chipboard cut-outs, etc...mainly due to USPS postal changes which will increase the cost of postage significantly.


If you have a bulky single deco (one with baubles, fatty felt pieces, etc...) contact your partner first to see if they will accept.
