Description:

The original idea of this swap is from @VivaLaDiane and as current swaps of this kind are USA only I would love to host this one international.

In this swap you will cut off 10 strips of paper (preferable printer paper with light color) which is easily foldable for our jars. On each of those strips you will write something happy, encouraging, thoughtful, etc. It can be a quote. It can be a tasteful joke. It can be personal note. It should only be a sentence or two so that it can be legible (the strip shouldn't be wider than 1 inch). And yes, it can even be printed/typewritten.

You will do this 3 times as you will have 3 partners (10 strips each). Please make sure that your strips are protected by something, so the envelope doesn't get ripped.

When you receive your strips, fold them and put them into your jar (you make this on your own) without reading them. When you need a moment of happiness or inspiration, you will have several to go to.

Everyone is welcomed to this swap. Newbies should have a well filled profile and members of the Newbie Helpers group. There shouldn't be any unresolved 1s or 3s ratings, if you have some feel free to message me why. You should be regularly logging in with no overdue swap issues.

Please ask any questions in advance of joining. As this is my first time hosting a swap I will try to do my best to help everyone. If there are some people interested I would host this swap on a regular basis.

Interesting concept.

I love this idea of the jar and all the interesting things you can find in there. The original swap was with 5 partners, as I am not sure how many would sign up I thought it would be too much?

Oh Yes! The original did have an international version, & was immensely popular too, but still, thanks for hosting this one!

Oh yes, and as she can't host them anymore I probably will continue this. And maybe we can increase the number of partners, depending on the preferences of everyone :)

Thanks for continuing this. Γ’β„’Β₯Γ’β„’Β₯ For me it's quite an honor that you didn't know, but the sign up by date would have been my daddy's 62nd birthday. Very sweet.

And the last day started so excited to see how many of you will participate :)
