mag·pie noun /ˈmagˌpī/  magpies, plural

A long-tailed crow with boldly marked (or green) plumage and a raucous voice

Used in similes or comparisons to refer to a person who collects things, esp. things of little use or value. The Magpie is a bird who goes around collecting things so for the purpose of this journal you are to have at least 30 entries of things you have collected. Examples are:

*RECIPES

*MENUS

*CARDS/POSTCARDS

*BITS OF RANDOM INFORMATION

*CLIPPINGS FROM MAGAZINES/NEWSPAPERS

*POEMS

*SONG LYRICS

*YOUR OWN PERSONAL THOUGHTS

You get the idea it can really be anything, but please do not make all 30 entries the same thing. You can use a journal or a composition notebook to put your entries in. If you use a composition notebook try to spruce up the cover a little. You will have one partner. You have several months to complete the journal. If you have any questions please ask. No recent 1's or 3's You must have completed at least 5 type 3 swaps to join. USA only to reduce postage cost.

Is there a minimum size for this journal? Can I use a 3.5 " X 5.5" moleskein notebook for this?

honeyblossom 12/24/2012 #

I don't want any tiny journals used. I'd prefer it be atleast 6" x 8.28.

Is this a rotating journal or a one stop shop?

honeyblossom 12/28/2012 #

it's a "one stop shop".

AnnMariePhipps 12/29/2012 #

would u prefer these 30 entries each on 1 page??

flofirenzie 12/30/2012 #

The medium moleskein is 5" X 8 1/4 " I know that is a little bit littler than the 6 X 8.28. However would that be okay? I already have several of these. If not that is okay.

honeyblossom 12/30/2012 #

The medium size is fine @flofirenzie

@AnnMariePhipps yes a page per entry..... remember you can always do more than 30 that is just the minimum.
