Description:
This is a Toilet Paper Roll Lucky Parcel!! Ok so heres what you do... 1) Get a toilet paper roll... completely cleared of its toilet paper and CLEAN 2) Make a bottom for it that is sturdy and has no holes so it can not leak anything out. just make sure its all covered. 3) Insert a Small rolled up piece of paper including your screen name and information for rating. 4) Read your partners profile, fill it up with as many little things (specifically for them) as you can. (FILL IT UP) try and add as many difforant things as you can. `IDEAS-- Beads Brads Stickers Tea Stamps Charms Earrings Chap-stick Bracelet Candy Confetti Glitter ANYTHING small and wonderful they would love` SMALL HANDMADES ENCOURAGED!! 5) Make a top for it as good as the bottom to seal it up for shipping 6) add address and stamp(s) to the roll 7) decorate the rest of the roll =) If you would like you may add a list of likes and dislikes to the comment section for your partner. If you do not do this and you profile wasnt detailed enough then that is your own fault. I will allow newbies that message me first and i will personally hold them accountable and angel if need be. But i will send the wrath of hell on all flakers. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO BAND ANY ONE I FILL MIGHT FLAKE or NOT RATE.

so we actually mail it naked (meaning not in an envelope?)

that was the idea, thought that might be fun but if your worried about it you can bubblope it or box it as long as it has the roll inside

So actually we will take just the inside from the toilet paper roll, that little brown tube and fill it up with goodies... Do I have the right picture?

slowlydrowning4u 05/21/2010 #

yes!

cool! I think mailing it naked is a great idea. what fun to open up your mailbox and find a toilet paper roll :)

This sounds awesome. I'm not into beading so no beads or findings for me. Glitter and scrapbooking stuff is fine, papers, stickers, colored buttons, deco tape, and what have you

i guess if your stuck for ideas looking at profiles might be a good idea for ideas for your partener

My mom uses a lot of Crystal-light and other sugar-free drink mixes that come in plastic tubes--these are perfect for putting a TP roll inside to protect it for mailing. Leaves a little more room for a few more little things, too. I've been mailing quilt blocks in them. I just tape the lid on with packing tape, address and stamp them.

I just mailed this out today. My partner lives in England so it will be interesting to see if she gets it and how it arrives to here. I mailed it as is as i enjoy a challenge. Enjoy!

I never could have imagined that I would have been reading about toilet paper rolls, but that's what I find myself doing right now. However, the fact that I had the question on How to clean a toilet tank in my mind makes me realize that I shouldn't have been all that surprised. It does make sense then, right?
