Stuff and Decorate an Envie!

I'm a sucker for seasonal themed swaps, so let's decorate an envie and stuff it to the max to spread the joy of giving nad receiving Happy Mail!

The theme this month is LOVE 🥰 Think hearts, roses, romance, music, pink, red, flowers, gifts, lovebirds, chocolates. The theme is open to interpretation, so don’t feel you have to send only heart shaped things, but the over all vibe should be love/romance 🥰 .

To keep postage costs down, let's stick to the parameters for a 1st or 2nd class stamp: Maximum size: 24 x 16.5 x 0.5cm Maximum weight: 100g

.

You'll have one partner, and will stuff an envelope with useful, fun, and interesting items. You can use the list below for ideas. Multiples of the same item are ok, but no exact duplicates eg you can send 5 stickers, but they must all have different designs.

Items are senders choice, but please check your partners profile to make sure you aren't sending any dislikes or inappropriate items.

The envelope should be FULL with diverse items. You should have added at least 15 items to the envie and should feel really good about what you're sending and would love to receive it as a package swap too.

.

Once you've stuffed your envelope, it's time to decorate and spread the joy of Happy Mail! Keep on theme, but use whatever materials you like. Remember not to go over the weight limit if adding tape, stickers or embelishments to the envie itself.
