Description:

@grimmlynn hosted a similar swap previously called The Best Medicine. It was super fun.

I have meds I have to take on a daily basis and I have mountains of empty prescription bottles. Here's a fun way to reuse them. Take a larger sized prescription bottle (the one I'm using as reference comes from Walgreens and the bottle measures 3.5 inches tall without the lid and the diameter of bottle is 1.5 inches), decorate it, and fill it with goodies for your partner. Some ideas on what to include are:

  • ribbon
  • brads
  • buttons
  • erasers
  • Prima flowers
  • charms
  • sticker flakes
  • anything you can stuff in there!

Make sure your bottle is around the 1.5 by 3.5 inch size as mentioned above. If you're working with a significantly smaller bottle (e.g. pharmaceutical sample bottle), then send 2 of the smaller bottles to your partner. Please remove the label from your bottle and clean out the inside of the bottle. Make sure your bottle is filled completely full of goodies and is decorated. This is sender's choice, so feel free to get started on your whimsey bottle.

I'm just hosting a US version right now. Feel free to host an international version if you'd like. You must have at least a 4.9 rating and must have completed at least 10 type 3 swaps to join this swap. No recent unexplained 1's or 3's. I will angel if necessary.
