thanks @tamtamlee for great swaps and permission to allow us to do an international one for the ones that want to

Here,s another "Six Week Snail Mail Swap"

So we have the same partner for all six weeks I had to make it with all one swap.

If would be nice to send out to your partner that you recieve from, thats fun, but is up to you!

You will rate your partner at the end of the six weeks. Your rating will be the over all of the six weeks,You might even get a heart!

iNTERNATIONAL / USA /CANADA all mixed

This "SNAIL MAIL SWAP" will run for SIX weeks. There will be a "theme" for each week. We will send out our letters EACH MONDAY of the new week.

The IDEA of this swap is get mail every week!!!! NOT to get 2 or 3 in one week!! I know things comes up but when you join you know the rules!!

If by some chance you are going to be late sending out PLEASE be considerate and message your partner and myself to let us both know!!!

Please post in the comment space each time you send a week out. Maybe even send a message to your partner let them know.

Please don't flake!! If you think you CAN"T do all six weeks DON"T join the swap. .

HERE IS THE SCHEDULE FOR SIX WEEKS..........

July 1st {week 1}--- Write your partner and introduce yourself. {tell about life, hobbies, job....stuff like that}

July 8th {week 2}--- Write your partner a letter include something that reminds you of summertime . Can be a card , a picture , scented stickers or anything you want to send .

July 15th {week 3} --- Send a post card with your state or what ever kind you want

July 22nd {week 4} --- Send a letter to your partner --- Include something in the envelope --- Something Small, like a magnet, bookmarker, stickers, anything --- homemade or bought. Senders choice.

July 29th {week 5}---Send a letter and include a handmade envie or something you have drawn or made , lets also decorate the envie you send it in

August 5th {week 6} Last week is a free for all whatever {senders choice} you want to send.

Any questions please message me! If this swap has a good turn out I will host another one...

I would like to make a rating requirement for this swap :

Newbies welcome , any questionable or repeated flakers will be banned

I'm curious....I would love to join this swap, but I don't want to get flaked on...what are you doing, as a host, to ensure that doesn't happen? What is the rating requirement to join, since there isn't one posted? Are you going to drop people that are questionable.swappers or known flakers prior to assigning partners? I would LOVE to be a part of this swap, I think it would be a lot of fun, but I just want to ensure that this swap is going to fun and safe for everyone.

kats 06/13/2013 #

^ agreed. I would join too if you only allowed good rating swappers.

MyHeartBelongsToSnailMail 06/16/2013 #

I am curious....has anyone spoke with the host about my earlier question? I was planning to send an email to see what the game plan was....what the rating requirement was going to be etc, but didn't want to be a bother if someone had already spoke with @mcovey about it. I would love to do this swap....if I can't find out, I would love to do a similar swap privately with someone, let me know if you're interested =)

evalynn 06/16/2013 #

I also agree.... I would join if there is a rating requirement. @MyHeartBelongsToSnailMail I would love to do a private swap with you if there is no rating requirement for this one. Just send me a message.

I joined her last swap and was really disappointed. I only received the first 2 weeks. She emailed my partner as I did. Got a lame excuse from the partner. I doubt I'll do this again.

mcovey 06/20/2013 #

sorry to hear about the flaker , I will ban anyone that has questionable ratings , I am sorry it has taken me so long to respond , I had surgery last week and haven;t been on in awhile to do much . I too don;t like flakers , I would like to give newbies a chance , but I would like not to have flakers who have flaked repeatedly , so I will ban those , I hope some will give this a chance . it is not espensive it is at least a stamp for the six weeks and last 2 weeks is what ever you want to send , so it don;t have to expensive , so I think it is worth making new friends , but it is up to you all to take a chance . Hope you will join
