Her Cozy Swap

by Her on April 12, 2010

Who likes getting mail?

I definitely do, and I’m going to make the bold assumption that a lot of other people do too.

Winter is passing, and may even be long gone for many of you, but that doesn’t mean the coziness has to go too. I love being cozy year round–and not necessarily just with blankets. Coziness of the soul can take many forms, like reading on a picnic blanket in the sun, penning a handwritten note to boost someone’s day, taking a deep sip of that drink you’ve been waiting all day for. Anything goes.

Basically I like being cozy and getting mail, even when there is no holiday to celebrate. If you do too, sign up for this swap. If you want the handy button above so that you can spread the word on your site, just copy this html gibberish underneath it, and paste that into some html gibberish on your post, and it should show up there too, linking back to this very post.

Here’s how it will work:

  • Sign up here by April 21.
  • Spread the word! The more people we have, the more fun this will be.
  • I make matches using some sort of random generator.
  • I send you your match and the mailing address.
  • You blog stalk a bit.
  • Come up with something you think will warm your match’s soul–less than $15ish.
  • Homemade is the very best, but if you’re like me and don’t have a crafty bone in your body, no worries!
  • Mail it by May 3.
  • When you get your package, show it off on your blog.
  • Leave me a comment here so I know to check the form spreadsheet.
  • That’s it!

Hey lady! I’m trying to fill out the form, but the submit button is cut off on my laptop browser. I’ll try again later from Firefox.
