Description:

For this swap you need to be medicated! Or else you won't have anything to stuff full of surprises for your partner. Even if you aren't 'officially' medicated a nice sized Tylenol bottle or some other over the counter medicine bottle comparable to a prescription sized bottle will work.

Simply find one of your EMPTY pill bottles and fill it full of neat surprises for your partner (make sure to wash it out first). Also, be creative and alter the outside of the bottle, too. Use any medium you would like. Just make sure to send a quality piece of work. Don't just slap a sticker on it and call it done. Embellish, paint, collage...just so long as it would look neat sitting at someone's crafting station.

Some ideas of what you might include:

  • Charms
  • Ribbon
  • Bracelet
  • Small pair of earrings
  • Beads
  • Embellishments such as brads, rhinestones, etc.
  • Novelty erasers
  • Pressed penny

Just use your imagination and see what you can come up with to cram in the bottle.

Sizes vary at different pharmacies, but try to stay away from smaller sample sized bottles. If that is all that is available, send at least 3 to compensate for the size difference.

I think we will all be surprised at how many great goodies we can fit in these tiny treasure boxes!

Since this is the first swap like this in this group, it is going to be sender's choice. For future swaps I would love to host themed ideas, etc. but I want everyone to get their feet wet first, so to speak.


Guidelines:

  • No recent no sends
  • Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile
  • I will check profiles
  • Regional - USA/Canada
  • Quality work only: Send only what you would be happy to receive

Any questions? Just ask!


Happy Creating!
