Description:

Only one person from each country may join! Please post your country in the comment section below.

For this swap you will be making a Pocket Letter for your partner with your country as the theme! If this goes well I will host one every month. :)

These are the requirements for the 9 pockets and can be in any order you like, but all must be included! Be creative as many things can be interpreted in different ways by the sender.

  • Flag: One pocket must be decorated like your country's flag.

  • Country Info: One pocket must include information about your country, your state/region and your town. Details left up to sender.

  • Currency: One pocket must include currency from your country. At least one paper note and one coin recommended, but some countries (like Canada and Australia) don't have low denomination paper notes, so they are not a requirement.

  • Letter about you: A brief letter talking about yourself, your hobbies, inspriation for the pocket letter, etc.

  • Tea: A tea bag, sender's choice but check partner's preferences if any. A type of tea that represents the culture of your country would be great.

  • Present: A small present. Sender's choice. Ideas are a keychain, magnet, ATC.

  • Swap info: One pocket should include the swap name, sender name, recipient name and date.

  • Goodies: Include at least 5 individual pieces of one or more of the following: used stamps, stickers, ephemera, sticky notes, washi tape samples, magazine articles.

  • Sender's Choice: One pocket is sender's choice! Be creative. :)

Things to keep in mind:

  • Be sure to include your countries name (perhaps in the center) of your Pocket Letter in large letters.

  • All decoration is sender's choice, but please make sure you DO decorate somewhat, not just include the contents of each pocket.

  • Only send something you would like to receive!

Only raters with a rating of 4.9+ or higher. No unrated swappers. I will ban anyone I feel may flake. This is international so be aware of the shipping cost.

oh what a neat idea! Would you consider doing different areas of The USA?

@junieandj I was thinking about doing one for the states! Since there is interest in it I think I will set one up. :)
