Here's an easy, newbie friendly Tag Swap...

Make 4 different Birdhouse shaped Tags for 1 partner. These tags are approximately 3" X 3.5" or (76mm X 89mm). They must include a rooftop, opening, and some sort of string or ribbon at the top.

These are meant to be very simple and basic, as we are making 4 tags. All you truly need is decorative paper and ribbon/string to participate in this swap. If you have other supplies such as ink, rubberstamps, die cuts, stickers, etc...you may add those, but the tags should remain as flat as possible for easy/cost effective mailing; so no dimensional embellishments. Please remember that extras are optional and not a requirement of the swap.

Refer to swap photo for example and inspiration.

This swap is USA only and Tags are sender's choice. For more personalized Tags, please check partner profile for favorite colors or style....but not required as it's senders choice. Aim to make your partner happy with work you'd want to receive yourself. If item was received and met swap requirements, please rate a 5; Hearts are optional and can be awarded for a personalized piece, extra special work, etc...

Please note: USPS mail can take several days. Communication with your partner is important.

AEK7300 will angel if needed. Anyone who flakes on this swap will be removed from inclusion in future swaps.

Please feel free to ask questions and make suggestions in comments below...

Hi i love bird houses,but im new to this. So i have a question, whats the width 3" and the hight 3.5? 7 just want to get it right, thanks

Mosstree, the size is just an approximation to avoid one swapper sending a much larger tag set than they receive. Having some guidelines creates a more even playing field. The base of the birdhouse tag should be about 3" wide. The height of the birdhouse should be about 3.5" tall. Hope this helped.

As a result of high International shipping costs, I've been encouraged to change this swap to Regional - USA only.

I will make sure to create some craft swaps of "flat" items that can be mailed in a more cost effective manner where all can reasonably participate.
