Description:

I took part in one of these swaps back in 2020. The original host is no longer on Swap-Bot so I can't ask permission to reproduce it but I'm sure she wouldn't mind. It was a lovely swap and it was nice to have things to open beyond getting the initial swap.

This might help if you want to see more about the idea.

Minimum requirements for the swap:

Min 5 'open when letters' (This does not include the 'Open First' letter you open when you get the package)

One envelope with 'Open First', in this one, you will introduce yourself to your partner, tell them a bit about yourself, your week and what you do for self-care. You can also add any other 'about me' sort of things into this envelope.

Each 'open when' envelope must include one letter with advice of what to do when they are sad, happy, having a bad day etc, as well as a small goodie to cheer them up or go along with this. IT IS UP TO THE SENDER HOW PACKED THEY MAKE THE INDIVIDUAL ENVELOPES.

Choose at least 5 from these subjects.

  1. it’s your birthday

  2. you’re stressed out.

  3. you need to smile.

  4. you need a laugh.

  5. you’re feeling down.

  6. you need strength.

  7. you’re bored.

  8. you’re having a bad day.

  9. you’re having a great day. (Include a mini banner or a small bag of confetti.)

  10. you are celebrating an accomplishment

  11. You're feeling sick

  12. It's a sunny day

  13. It's a rainy day

  14. You're in the garden

  15. You get good news

  16. You get bad news

  17. You need Coffee

  18. You need a cup of tea

  19. It's Friday

  20. You're Hungry

Put some thought into the goodies, think about how you would feel if you opened the envelope on that occasion. The goodies can be shop bought or handmade.

The minimum rating is 4.98 and as this is quite a big swap I'll make the deadline quite long.

Happy to consider newbies if anyone wants to join this group but please message me if you want to take part. I will check before allocating partners so no one with unexplained or resolved 1's or 3's.
