Description:
Time for a friendship book swap to move some of those friendship books you've finished and have lying around. For those who don't know what friendship books are, they are booklets made from paper attached by staples, brads, or other creative ways to attach pages. It is made for someone, perhaps yourself or a pal and is passed on to others for them to add their address and other info. When it is full, the last person returns it to the one it is made for. You can use a variety of embellishments including ribbon, glitter, fabric, different papers, jewels, brads, etc. Be creative. This swap will include new friendship books that you want to get started and established ones that you need to move. The swap will be for 10 friendship books to three partners. You must have a rating of 4.7 to join, newbies are welcome with a filled out profile. I will check profiles and will remove anyone not suitable for the swap. Please make sure the envelope you are mailing your swap in will hold up in the mail. Add extra tape or use a bubble mailer if needed. PLEASE no more than one homer in the swap.

I have 2 that I really need to get rid of. I've also tried to start my own by making a couple, is there a limit to the number of pages? Also, what is a "homer"? Just asking in case the one's I make are too many to send.

There is no limit to the number of pages, I usually decide depending on the size of the fb. The smaller the fb, the more pages I put. If you have too many pages it takes along time for the fb to get full. A homer is where it only has room for one more signer. No one wants to get an envie full of ones that need to be mailed home to the owner as it could get expensive.

You have in the description 10 to 1 partner but you have 3 swap partners on the number of swap partners.

Thanks joppagirl...watching for now. On dreammers quest., how will that work? Is that 30fb's or split up somehow?

beadeful 08/23/2009 #

Dreamer, from the looks of other swaps, it may be 10 to ea partner. Since I'm so new, I may have to pass on this one. But I'll keep watching and making fb's in case I change my mind.

Sorry for the confusion, I corrected the description to read 10 fbs to 3 partners.

Thanks joppagirl

Sorry I was just being a little nit picky about the description. I knew what you meant. I knew it was 10 to 3 partners. Thank you for fixing the description.

Thanks for bringing up the difference in the description about the partners. When swapping it is always important that everything be clear before we start a swap.
