Description:

I've become addicted to making stickerbooks and hope there are others out there who love them too. For this swap you will send 6 stickerbooks to 1 partner- USA only, please. You can send established or new books, but only 1 last signer in the swap.

In case you haven't done these before but would like to try, a stickerbook is made by attaching blank pages inside a notecard with staples or thread or however you choose as long as it's durable enough to hold up during its travels. Inside the front cover, the maker provides info telling who the book is for, what theme (if there is one,) made by, and instructions (such as "Decorate one page with stickers of your choice, add your label and the date."). Each person who receives the book decorates one full page with stickers and adds her label and the date. Some books have themes and others are decorated free theme. For this swap, no stickerbooks made out of a stack of messy stapled pages please. I DO decorate those when I get them but this time, let's make sure all the books are a similar quality.

If you have questions, please ask! I'd love to help! And check out the comments below for more information.

Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile. Established swappers with 4.9 or higher, no recent 1's or unexplained 3's. I'll angel this if necessary.

Don't forget to add a note with the swap name and your swapbot name!

Repurposing cards is awesome, by the way. If someone's written in them, cover the writing neatly with stickers, tape, or paper.

...and like Decos etc they get sent back to the original maker when they're full? (never made one but they sound like fun!)

@MorahLaura They get sent back to the person the book was made for. Sometimes the maker makes them for herself; other times for someone else. The made for address needs to be very clearly written or typed or on a label or something inside the front cover and the person who adds her stickers to the last page sends it back to the person the booklet was made for. These are a lot like decos except simpler/ easier because you just use stickes to decorate. You can add doodles or whatever, if you want, but you don't have to. And the stickers keep the pages pretty flat so they're cheaper to pass along and send home than art decos.
