When I send out swaps, I always include one of my handmade tea bag folded stars.
This one is made of four different paper tea bag envelopes.
So many people have expressed and interest in learning to make them that I have started this thread to more easily remember who wants to learn.
This one was made from pieces of a hand written note.
Anyone can post here who wants a photocopy of a small book of instructions, a supply of pre-cut paper, some samples and a list of tips.
This one is made of pieces of the same tea bag envelope.
I would like a donation of $5 for postage or a small gift such as
- inexpensive note cards
- small memo pads
- pretty pens
- fist-sized balls of scrap yarn (any kind) that is no longer needed
- small sewing kits
- stickers (non-religious designs)
= hankies
This one is made from 8 different colored squares selected for color.
Give me a couple days to create my list of tips.
This one is made of pieces of hand writing and an advertisement.
Sign up here. I will message when the packet is ready for the address if I don't have it already. I will message after I have sent it out with the tracking number.
Sign up first and wait to send me a gift or money AFTER the package is received.

Yes, I am still doing this. I had to stop sending them out because I ran out of samples and am currently making more. I have the addresses and I do not need monetary compensation. Just look at the list to send me something small that approximates $5. I will trust everyone's judgement.

Sounds wonderful. Please include me. I love all forms of Oragami and have made hundreds of cranes. I always include the legend of the cranes with them.
Thanks for doing this. Do you prefer cash or gift??
