Description:

After I moved I have to get up pretty early every day to go to the university where I study - how clever am I to move AWAY from where I study instead of closer ? I have 2 hours of travel each way. Early mornings can be one of the most boring things but inspired by a correspondance I just had with @evitake I wanted to make this swap. 'Cause why should our mornings be boring? Let's turn them into a party with this swap I hope you'll love:

For this swap you'll need a cereal box. Whether you eat bran flakes, coco pops, cheerios or whatever I think they are all pretty close to the same size right? First eat the content ;-) Then fill the box with awesome presents for your partner. The main theme is 'party' as we want to be extremely happy opening this box and pouring out the contents - maybe in a bowl? ;-)

Some ideas could be: Check your partners profile, go to the local dollar store to buy party favours, craft a garland to throw in, fill it with sugary sweets, stuff it full with goodies!

And then for the cereal box itself, you can go nuts with imagination here also: you can decorate it, maybe leave it 'naked' to be mailed with stamps directly on the outside, paint it, cut out a collage and glue on, or just leave it as it is (there are so many cereal boxes from other countries I've never seen before so I'm pretty sure I will enjoy a non-decorated one just as much as a decorated one).

In short this is really a box of goodies for your partner to make them have an awesome 'morning party' and feel happy to get up in the morning :-)

This is such a wonderful idea! I always feel so guilty about recycling for trash those colorful cereal boxes. I save them for a while and use some of the panels in my journals, but then what? I end up tossing them into the recycle bin. Now I can use them for mailing packages. Hope I clear my calendar to join this swap.
