Love Snail Mail?


When I posted about the Just Because You're Lovely Swap by Gracie from Gracie Bella Butterfly I got a huge response of, "how do I participate in a swap?"  {Posted HERE}.  So I wanted to share with you all a couple links of how to find swaps!  The first, and most well-known among the blogoshpere is swap-bot.com.   Another place I often look for swaps is SwapDex, which is a blog that posts the links to all swaps she is aware of.  It's a connector blog.  Be sure to email Jenna if you have a swap going on and you want a post about it on her blog.   Some swaps to be aware of: Nay's Chocolate Swap, Apron Swap,  Halloween Swap,  Preppy Christmas Swap.  And remember, you can always create your own!

I adore mail and I think it's great that you are really getting into swaps. I sometimes do personal swaps with blog friends too.

And thanks again for your wonderful words of encouragement in my last post.
