What is decoswapping?

I'll try to describe, what actually means "decos" and "decoswapping" if someone comes here without any facts.

Decos are usually small, handmade booklets, which have some kind of theme. Themes can be about anything under the sun: some character, food, furniture, nature... There are sometimes unthemed decos too.

So, someone starts the booklet, and marks her name or nickname, and address, where the deco should be sent when it's full. Normally there are 5-15 pages in one deco. Everyone decorate one (or sometimes two) page with pictures, stickers, ribbons, buttons etc. craftingstuff. Then she sends the deco to the next artist.

You can find several different decoswapping groups in the net, or just start swapping with friends. Decorating is very inspiring hobby!:-)
