Package Pals: February (closed)

If you’re like me, a package at your doorstep makes an OK day instantly an awesome day! (I’m old school, and love snail mail too :) Now, consider getting a package in the mail with a C.R.A.F.T. inside :) Sound like something you might be into…read on, my friend!

I have participated twice (here and here) in Craftaholics Anonymous handmade gift exchange (Linda does it twice a year). I loved it, but I want a package pal more than twice a year :) I’m planning on doing this every other month, you could make 6 new friends and get 6 C.R.A.F.T.’s in the mail this year! 

Here are some C.R.A.F.T. ideas that are easy and inexpensive to ship:
- just because garland
simple birdie art
a hex nut bracelet (you could ship the bracelet in a TP tube :)
- a 3D cube puzzle
- a framed printable (I’m Sew Very Happy, Peanut to my Butter, Luck Quote)
- 6 DIY necklaces

There are an endless amount of C.R.A.F.T.’s to be made and shipped :) You could even send your package pal crafting supplies for a certain project or general fun crafty things like bakers twine, lace tape, doily’s, cupcake liners).

Here’s the deal: 

  • Sign up, using the form below, by Wednesday, January 25th
  • I will pair you with one other crafty person. You will each send one crafty package to each other in the month of February. 
  • I will send each person an email by January 27th, letting you know who your package pal is. When you find out who your pal is, please send them a quick email and tell them a little about yourself. 
  • Sadly, this time around, package pals is only open to crafty people in the U.S. and Canada!
  • Send you pal a C.R.A.F.T. package by February 28th
  • I will have a linky party set up on February 29th for everyone to share their package pal goodies!
  • You do not have to have a blog to be a part of package pals. 
  • Spread the crafty goodness… the more package pals the better :)

By filling out this form, you are committing to putting together a crafty package and going to the post office to send it to your package pal. In return, you will get a surprise crafty package delivered to your door step too!
