Swap Requirements

1.Check your partner's profile for things they would like to receive.

2.Select items and package in an envelope.

3.Ensure that your envelope requires no more than one stamp. (Larger package is sender's choice, but not required.) This is a Type 2- FLAT MAIL SWAP, not a package swap.

4.Wait for your partner to tell you they got their Happy Mail!

The entire point of this swap is to make getting the mail FUN! Please help your partner smile when they get their package. :)

In the case that you can not send them something on their wish list, include a note explaining that and send them something else. FOR EXAMPLE: If they only wish for scrapbooking items, but you don't have any, send them one of your favorite items- like stickers.

I plan to host this swap every two weeks. We LOVE to get mail. :)

For reliable swappers, I've also started a group called Happy Mail. Visit here to apply to the group: http://www.swap-bot.com/group/2ffeed2746aa64596c140b38aacc4448/about

  • I am / will be hosting a ton of swaps. If you have any questions, need help, or anything else, please don't hesitate to contact me.

  • My main purpose in hosting swaps is to get and send mail. It is entirely selfish! :) You will notice that all of my swaps have 5 partners. Only one other person needs to sign up, and I will assign partners when it's time. Like I said, it's all about MY mail.

  • I allow newbies and those with imperfect ratings in my swaps. I believe you have to start somewhere and everyone deserves a second chance. That said, a 1 or a 3 rating will need a valid explanation. Thank you for understanding.

  • Rest assured that I check each and every participant's profile. I request information (when necessary) and keep in contact. If I don't have a valid explanation, the user will be banned.

  • Most of the swaps I host are profile based. Please take the time to add a wish list to your profile. It will make the mail you get that much cooler! Since I've added a wish list, my incoming mail is personalized to my preferences. This is such a great community of people!

  • If a participant in any of my swaps flakes, please let me know immediately. While I believe in second chances, we can't be taken advantage of. In most cases, I will be more than happy to angel the swap. I will maintain a private list of flakers and they will not be able to participate in any of my hosted swaps in the future.

  • It takes time and dedication to host swaps. Not everyone wants to deal with it. If you have any ideas for future or regular swaps, please let me know so I can consider hosting it.

*For the first swaps, I took the time to message individuals with questions about their ratings, to ask them to include a wishlist in their profile, etc. It seems I will no longer have the time available. If you have a 1 or 3 rating, please message me and let me know why you have those ratings. If you do not, I will be forced to ban you from the swap. Having a wishlist on your profile is now a swap requirement.

Well, I have finally packaged my envelopes up for the mail tomorrow. I did manage to get one off today. I had fun putting everything together!
