Welcome to the Spring round of The Bloggers Snail
Mail!! Wahoo! I love this project so
much and
I’ve met so many awesome bloggers through this project and want it to continue
in 2016 so spread the word, tell all your friends, let’s make this a round to
remember!
So here is how it works: A quarterly gift exchange where you can meet other bloggers from around the world and spread a bit of positivity! People get paired up in February, May, August and November. During the sign up period, every participant will be paired with one other new participant and you’ll spend a few weeks becoming BFFs (i.e. reading each other’s blogs, sending happy e-mails, you name it!). After that, you’ll send your partner a gift from your country that you think they may like from the info you now know about them. There’s a £5 limit on the gifts to make this project as affordable as possible. Be as creative as you can and make it meaningful! Motivate them, tell them all the beautiful things you learned about them, and make them feel special! We could all use a little encouragement, especially from our new friends. Also, each package should include a postcard (or a letter if you can’t find one!) with some motivating love or positive words of wisdom written all over it.
So to sign up for the ‘The Bloggers Snail
Mail’ you just need to send an email to whatsinyourmakeupbag@gmail.com, title
it ‘The Bloggers Snail Mail’ and include in it your name, where you are from,
and your blog! Sign ups will be open until the Friday 29th
April. I will then randomly match you all up aiming to make sure you
are with someone from another country or at least in another area from you! I
will then let you know by Monday 2nd May who your partner is and you
then have 4 weeks to get to know them! So the week of the 30th May,
you can then send your new buddy their Snail Mail
Once you receive your
gifts, write a blog post about your experience, sharing what you gave,
received, and learnt through this being part of this and meeting your new pal.
If you want to tweet
about this project, use the hashtag #TheBloggersSnailMail, You can also tag me
@GemmaMarieJames and ill retweet your post, so everyone can share your
experience!
Please only sign up if
you definitely are willing to take part and if you want to be matched with
someone from the same country as you to save on postage then please let me
know!!
Also please share this post and let all your
friends know about this project, it would be great to get as many people
involved as possible!
