Description:

Ok so here's whatcha do. This is gonna be a monthly swap. In this swap you take 13 sheets of postcard sized cardstock and you put them together. Could just be stapled, tied with string, any way you can think of. You then decorate the front page however you want to. For example "My New Recipes". On the first page put one of your favorite recipes. (also your swap-bot user name)

Then when partners are assigned you send the book to your partner. They use one of the pages to decorate and put one of their favorite recipes in. Only use 1 page though. This will basically be like a recipe deco only this time you will get it back when it's full instead of it getting lost in the mail or thrown out. I'm making this swap international so that hopefully we'll get different recipes from around the world. If you see any recipes you like when the little recipe book gets sent to you, feel free to copy it down for yourself. Also, don't forget to put a return address label on the back of the last page so the last person knows who to send it back to!

Since only 3 people were in the 1st round I'm leaving this open to everyone to join. Not just to the people who joined the 1st round. I had someone ask if the book had to be 13 pages due to postage cost. For that reason I'm changing the swap that if you weren't in the 1st round, for rest of the rounds, people that join and make a new book for themselves can put as many pages in as they want. But this monthly swap will only be through December of this year so keep that in mind. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

Does it have to be 13? For me it could mean the difference between $2.60 and $18.20 (!!!) in postage...

Why would there be that much of a difference in price?

Postage rules regarding the thickness of the envelope :( Australian postage prices are infamous...

just wanted to say also that the recipe book I got. the staples all feel out and the booklet is falling apart. I will put ribbon around it to help hold it all. but yes it will be thick by the time we all add our pages. I love recipes and look forward to it but not the postage......Canadian postage is arm, leg and just so picky and so on. But, I guess it is how it all is nowadays when we want our hobby.
