Description:

If you participated in the "Decos For People Who Have Never Made Decos" Swap, then this is the follow up swap for you!

As we all know by now, a deco is a small booklet with the cover decorated by "the owner." The owner writers their name/address/email/etc in the back. Can be themed or unthemed. It's sent person to person and each person decorates a page according to the theme (or however they would like, if there is no theme!) and when the book is complete, it's sent back to the owner.

In the first section of this swap, we made our decos and sent them to our partners. Now comes the awesome part -- decorating the ones we've received and sending them on.

IF you're joining us and you HAVE participated in the Decos For People Who Have Never Made a Deco swap, you are striongly encouraged to decorate and pass along the deco you received in that swap.

IF you are joining us and you HAVE NOT participated in the Decos For People Who Have Never Made a Deco swap, but you are looking for a laid back, easy breezy, deco swap to pass along a deco you already have in your possession, hi, welcome, glad you could join us.

I'm giving us some pretty lenient deadlines because I know a lot of people will be busy in the end of December, so everyone should be done on time.

Yes, this will be the beginning of a series of Easy, Breezy Deco swaps. I look forward to hosting for all of you :D

And finally, IF you have questions, leave them here or PM them to me. IF you're here to make drama and heartache, don't. IF you want to try out the wonderful world of decos, maybe test a new technique or method, in a pool of relative-newbies who are not here to judge, then please sign up and have a blast!

Is there a size or page number requirement?

sunspot 11/27/2013 #

@sadieszbby Whoops! I see my mistake, I'll fix it soon and shoot you a PM when it's better. Sorry!

@SherreeG Not really! Page number is up to you, preferably not giant sized decos. International shipping can be a little steep. Really your choice though. :)

I have not received my deco from the first round :( Am I able to join even though I don't have one to pass along? I am very bummed about this as I was uber excited for this swap series.....

Yes @shalvorsen of course you can. It might mean you have to make a new one, though. I will double cross my fingers and toes that yours arrives in time for you to decorate and send on.

@Sunspot - I've been in contact with @sadieszbby who stated she mailed on 12/4. Today's the 13th and still isn't here. :/
