Description:

With @Grapefruit7625 permission, she has allowed me to recreate this swap... I have deleted and added/kept some of her wording.

I also would like to add that all swaps that I host, I assign partners right around midnight after the sign up date is over. I also am VERY thorough when going through my swappers who signed up so you all will hopefully be guaranteed not to be flaked on! I make sure that they dont have any questionable ratings, bad comments, they have several hearts, a well filled out profile and that they have signed on since the date they signed up for my swap. I will not be able to angel this swap, please join at your own risk...I hate saying this..but sometimes it does happen. If you would like to angel, please message me! :) If you would like to make an international please contact @Grapefruit7625 for permission please!

Now on with the good stuff...

I have a good collection of old plastic prescription medicine bottles laying around because they are nice to store small things in them! I'm sure many of you have pill bottles laying around weather it be prescription bottles, vitamin bottles, or allergy medicine! Lets put then to use and make them look pretty than add a small surprise inside for your partner! It's kinda like a matchbox decorating or whimsey jar but with a pill bottle! You will have 1 partner, and you will use any kind of medicine bottle you have laying around and if you dont have any laying around maybe ask a friend or family member! The shape and size don't matter at all. Please wash out the pill bottle first though because medicine can leave a powder residue inside of them. You then will decorate the bottle however you feel fit since you are the artist! What you use as a surprise to fill it with is senders choice, but if you are able to fill it with things you know they'll like based off their profile kudos to you :-D

if you are having trouble thinking what to put inside your bottle some ideas could be: stickers, labels, candy (in wrapper please), ribbon, lace, any odds and ends laying around like ephemera. You get the drift now! Also include a note about how you got the bottle (having it lay around, got it from someone, went out and bought it for the swap) and why you picked the items you put in it for them. Everyone likes to hear about the time and effort that went into projects they receive! :-)

The swap photo for this is my pill bottle that I created for my partner in last swap! Be creative!

I will only accept people with a swap history of high ratings since with will have to be sent in a package. I am also keeping this USA because of postage rates. If you would like to make an international please contact @Grapefruit7625 for permission please!

When you are rating, please be fair! Not everyone can be perfect artists. As long as you receive what the swap calls for, they should get a 5 for effort:-)

If you have any questions, please message me and I will do my best to answer you ASAP!

Take care and happy swapping!!

This is on my "Things I want to make/try" list for 2015. Unfortunately I don't have the time to do it this week. Have fun everyone!

Can we send more than one bottle?

If you would like, I would just ask your partner . But just know your partner will probably just send one bottle. There will be another swap after this one most likely. :)

I will have to wait until this comes around again.
