Description:

You will create for one partner 2 Chunky Houses in the Theme of Japan.

The theme can be anything you would like.

EXAMPLES: Japan the country Things you might see there Japanese food What a Japanese house might look like to you Anyting to do with Japan

Size:each house should be between 3” and 4” wide, and no more than 7” tall.

Shape: should be shaped like a house, however houses do come in many different shapes, so be creative (just see above for size requirements)

Please ensure that the house is made out of a strong base - plain old paper is not sufficient, you want something sturdy that can handle layers of stuff. (cereal cardboard, etc)

Each house can be whatever the sender wants. You do not have to create on both of the house sides, but please include you name and date somewhere on the house so when people show them off they know who made them!

Here are some examples of Chunky houses:

The picture on this swap is one I made for the last swap. It is 100% recycled!

AND MANY MORE

When mailing your house please try to protect it from bending.

I will host a chunky house swap every month for a different country. You can sign up for just one or the whole series.

Side note: Art comes in many different shapes and sizes and something you don't like someone else might so please please please be open minded! Everyone deserves to share their art with the world!

Please no flakers, but newbies are very welcome with well filled profile. If you have to much going on in your life please do not sign up. I will angel this swap if need be, but please let me know if you have been flaked on. I am a new coordinater so please bear with me.

NO unexplained 3s or 1s. You must have a 4.8 rating unless you are unrated. Newbies beware if you flake your first rating will ruin your chances of getting into other great swaps.

If you have any questions please feel free to email or PM me.
