Description:

Ok, so take all those old file folders you weeded out in January trying to get organized... lets do something with them!

Using these file folders alter, cut, manipulate, re-invent, redirect, re-create a 6x9 mailing envelope. Embellish. Please make it USABLE (ie make it so someone can mail something in it and it go through the post office).

Leave or make a space for the recipient to put a mailing label and a return address label and a spot for postage.

Bonus points if you make it RE-USABLE for whoever your swap partner uses it to send something.)

Make TWO of these. One remade envelope for each partner.

You do not have to mail the mailing envelope in a reused file folder mailing envelope (made slightly bigger) but that'd be cool too. Please try to re-use mailing materials.

Must be member in good standing.

I loved this idea. I can hardly wait for the swap to close and have partners assigned. I've made my envelopes and am in the process of embellishing them. March 14, hurry up please!
