Billie, welcome! Just watch the titles under this forum and see what turns up. People are always starting new Round Robins or swaps either one time swaps or year long.

Whoever hosts the swap can pretty much call the rules. See what you can find and someone will always answer your questions- just ask.

I am hosting a swap called Kathy547's Secret Pal Swap. I started it in December 2004 & it will run until December 2005. I have one person who would like to join but so far I don't have anyone to match her up with since everyone else already has a "pal". If you would like to join, I'll match you two up so you won't be secret unless I can get a couple of others involved. Here's a rundown on how the swap works -

Each month you will mail something to your pal. This has to be AT LEAST a card or letter. You can also send plants, seeds, books, etc. Little trinkets, coffees, etc.

Your pal will send you something each month. When you get your box/letter, post on that month's thread that you received from your pal. It's also nice to mention what all you get so that your pal has some idea if you liked it.

I have a "sent" list & a "received" list that I check your name off of. If after 2 months you don't send your part without a good excuse (& I mean a good excuse!) I email you & politely take you out of the swap. If you see that you're going to be late that month, email me so I get a heads up.

Please feel free to look on some of the previous months' threads to see what kind of swap we're having & to also get ideas of items that have been sent.

If you decide to join, post on the May or June thread.
