Summer Stuffed Journal Swap - 2016

You will create a journal stuffed with ephemera from your daily life. Each day you write (journal should have at least 30 entries) you will also stuff in something . . . a photo, movie ticket, receipt, post card, tea bag, stickers, pens, key chains or other small gifts for your partner. Your journal should be the size of a composition notebook or larger. It can be bound or spiral. If you create it by hand make sure it looks nice- not just some paper stapled together. You should have . . .

1. A cover page that introduces you to your partner.

2. 30 entries or more, each with at least a paragraph written neatly by hand or typed.

3. One or more items glued, stapled or taped in for each entry. Hand drawn pictures in the journal are encouraged but do not count as part of the stuffing unless they are drawn on a post card or other stuck in item.

4. 10 entries or more from each month; June, July and August.

5. Pages should be colorful and have great care and effort. Don't wait till the last minute and scribble a bunch of stuff and stick some stuff in and send it. Make what you would want to receive.

6. Items stuck in should cost $5 or more.
