Can you define dimensions of small notebook?
And what is not too thick?
And also the dimensions of a regular/square envelope?

How many pages should we put in the book we makeyou say do 2-4 pages, is this all onw suded or are we goung to havecreations on both sides of the pages? 😃

One sided would probably be best in case the pages stick to someone else's pages....I guess it would depend on what mediums you used too and how thick the pages are...

Hi, question from a newbie. I participated in Junk Journal #1 recently and am still waiting on receipt from my partner. To clarify, once I receive the #1 journal from my partner, I'll add to it and then pass it along through swap #3 (when you host that)? Thank you!

Hi, there- postal regulations allow envelopes for letters to be up to 1/4" thick. After that, it's considered a package. If each participant is filling 2-4 pages, and you want around 3-4 to add to your book- you'd need around 16 pages or 8 full papers in your signature- is that right? That might still fit within the 1/4" I made a mock-up today with 12 full papers (24 pages) and it's definitely too thick to be mailed as an envelope.
