Description:

You will have 2 partners. To your partners you'll send 5 (five) sticker bags. These can be "homers" (ones you send back to the sticker bag maker after you sign the last spot), starters (no signers yet - new bags) or established bags. Please do not send to the maker of the bag. Please do not send to someone who's already signed or passed on it. If this means you have to make new ones, please do so. This IS an International Swap.

To make a sticker bag you get a envelope, put a note on it as to who made it, who it is for (if it's made for you and for you put made by and for and list your name.) the address and email of who it is for, your instructions and somewhere for the people to sign. I have a sticker bag template, made by @rattissia made, that people are welcome to use. It can be found at Sticker bag template
If you want smaller bags print in portrait but if you want larger bags print in landscape. These are the set up of most sticker bags that I personally do but you do not have to use this.

I have made my envelopes from printed templates, scrapbook paper. I've seen them in regular envelopes, small kawaii-type envelopes and even actual plastic baggies. There is no set rule as long as the necessary information is on each bag.

Here is the example of what to put on your envelope:

Made for and by:
First-name Last-name
Street address
City, state, zip
Country
I put my email address so people can email me for a current address if needed.

Please take # stickers and put in # stickers. After # signers please send home.

(Usually on back so people can have room.) Please sign and date. "Please send home after # signers."

I usually put take out 4 stickers and put in 8. As for the amount of signers I like putting 5. Put as many as you want, as long as you realize that they need some room to sign. You can also add other rules. I usually say no reward stickers or tiny stickers. Your bag, your rules. The more signers you invite, the longer they take to get home. :) I like to start my bag with double the amount I ask them to take.... Since I say "take 4", I start with 8 stickers. I make sure that all starting stickers (and stickers I put in other bags) are all different so that people have a variety to choose from.

Please make sure that you're using the proper amount of postage. It's very annoying to receive a parcel that has "Postage due" on it. In fact, if you ever receive a swap from me marked "Postage Due", please contact me right away so that I can fix it.

Please message me or comment with any questions you might have, I am MORE THAN HAPPY to answer if I can. The more swappers, the merrier!!!

Exactly what is a sticker bag? Loose stickers in a bag? What kind of bag? How many are required?

@young46356 Do you anything about label bags? Or FB's? They are all along the same lines. The example of what you put on the envelope is actually a pretty good description too. Most Sticker bags are actually envelopes and not bags at all. You do use loose stickers, and how many you start a bag with is really up to you! Please feel free to pm me with any specific questions!
