Use a TP tube as the envie-AUGUST- US Only

This is the AUGUST version of TP tube as an envie.

My best friend and I used to send each other things in toilet paper tubes. We would find all kinds of little goodies to send, tape up the ends, decorate the outside and send it off. I haven't done this in a while and I think it would be fun.

For anyone wondering how much it will cost to ship these? It will probably cost around $2 to send them through the mail depending on what you put in them.

The swap:

1.Get an empty toilet paper tube (the cardboard thing that the TP is wrapped around).

2.Tape up one end-adding a piece of aper just larger than the hole between the tape and tube, will prevent your goodies frmo sticking to the tape.

3.stuff your tube with goodies. Checking your partners profile is great, but not required. Be sure to include something that has the swap name and your username on it so they know where it came from. Include only things you would like to receive, no trash! Ideas for goodies

• small hard candies
• skinny pack (5 sticks) of gum
• matchbox car
• brads, eyelets, ribbons, and other small embellishments
• sticker sheets that can be rolled to fit the tube
• small rubber stamps
• beads, buttons, threads, etc
• jewelry or jewelry making supplies
• cute socks
• single serving drink mixes (that you add to a bottle of water), tea bags, kool aid
• something handmade (I bet matchboxes would fit!)
• the possibilities are endless! Be creative.

1. Tape the other end of the tube-again, include a piece of paper so the items don't stick to the tape

5.Address your tube

6.Decorate the outside-I have found it easier to decorate after it is full, it holds it's shape better.

7.You will have one week to send to your partner once partners are assigned.
