Description:

I thought it would be fun to host a swap based on the “motto” of this group: It’s nice to receive a letter and sit and read it over a hot cuppa tea or coffee or hot chocolate.

You will send your partner the following items:

  • 1 packet of the beverage of their choice.
  • 1 letter (or note-card), written to them sharing a bit about you or your day. With the holidays coming up, perhaps you’ll share a holiday tradition.
  • 1 new pen or marker; something fun they can write with (if possible, try to stay away from sending the standard black or blue ink pen).
  • 1 blank note-card (or piece of stationary) with an envelope. This can be handmade or store-bought.

The pen and the blank note-card are so your partner can write a note to brighten someone else’s day.

Please list your beverage choice in the comments section below (tea, coffee, or hot chocolate).

When sending your package:

  • Please make sure you seal it well so it won’t rip open and things fall out. If possible, send it in a padded envelope. No one wants to receive an envelope with missing items.

  • Please either wrap your beverage packet, or put it into a Ziploc-type baggie; again so that it doesn’t rip and powder gets spilled into the envelope; this would make for a messy envelope.

This swap should be fairly inexpensive, both to put together and to mail, so I’m not putting a spending limit on it. Please send a nice package to your partner.

Newbies are welcome with a well-filled out profile. “Well-filled out” means you have at least written a little about you, what you like (including your beverage likes/dislikes), your hobbies, and a wish list of things you would love to receive. If there are things you don’t care for, please list those as well. Feel free to look at mine or the profiles of other group members for examples.

All others must have a rating of 4.9, with no 1 or 3 ratings within the last 6 months, without a good explanation.

What a sweet idea for a swap! :D I would really like chai mix, but hot chocolate is fine if that's too hard to find!

Anything is fine with me, but the sweeter, the better. Bring on the fruit or sugar! = )

MissPaula 11/23/2010 #

FYI..... I love those hot apple cider packets!

aughtpui 11/24/2010 #

i would ♥ hot chocolate :)

MorgenSter 11/24/2010 #

I can only send tea from here, they don´t sell sachets of coffee, chocolate or capuccino... And another question... if i send the whole package in a box, it will cost me 10 times more, can i take the sachets from the box, all of them, put in an envelope , fold the paper box it comes in and sent it like that ???

Would it be too bad??? :( But, anyway, it will be hard for me to join since everyone here wants chocolate or capuccino :(

ArtyBeth3 11/24/2010 #

@MorgenSter 1 packet equals 1 sachet, not a whole box. Yes, you could put a sachet into an envelope. There is no need to send the box. You could write on the envelope what kind of tea it is. However, you are right, most everyone is choosing hot chocolate for their choice, so this might not be the swap for you. I'll make sure to host some teas swaps in 2011 that you could join in on.

Unfortunately, we've had a death in the family, so I'll have to be gone for a while and have to leave the swap. Send a prayer and some positive thoughts for the family, if you would. Hope to be back soon.

@user5789 that's too bad. I have lifted you & your family up to Jesus in prayer.

Sylvia4647 11/27/2010 #

Hot chocolate or herbal tea for me, please!

MorgenSter 11/29/2010 #

@ArtyBeth3 I´ll wait for these future swaps then :DDDD

CoffeePotPeople 11/30/2010 #

User5789, I'm so sorry for your loss! Sending hugs.

Tea or hot chocolate for me! Oh, and I prefer black or blue pens, with as fine a point as you can get! (Guess that's boring, huh? And weird, too, since I love color...hmmm. Prolly something deeply psychological going on there, lol.)

quedespacioestas 12/ 1/2010 #

I prefer hot chocolate because I can't find it here easily :)

Prairiemom 12/ 1/2010 #

Tea for me please!

qu1ckdry 12/ 2/2010 #

I love coffee but if that's too hard to find, hot chocolate is lovely too!

reauk 12/ 2/2010 #

as your aware in uk we got bad snow ....most areas are snowed in so our swaps will take longer to reach you.so please rember this...

ladonnatwinmom 12/ 2/2010 #

Hot cocoa please!

ArtyBeth3 12/ 2/2010 #

Please remember to list your beverage preference in this comment section. If you don't and you don't have anything listed on your profile, it will be sender's choice on what they send you.

qu1ckdry 12/ 2/2010 #

We can't buy hot cocoa in sachets here. Is it alright if it's hand-packed into a pretty decorated homemade sachet?

kikilala 12/ 3/2010 #

Yes I would love to receive hot cocoa too ;)
