Some ideas that have floated around are: Travel kit for kids, travelling, the beach, Sunshine, Sailing on the lake, and so much more!

Participants can include store-bought items, but please be sure that you personally craft at least 75% of the goodies in your can! Also if you wish to send an extra can or a larger item with your can please discuss this with your partner!

You will be required to check in with your partner and post in the swap thread during the swap! I will be noting any communication issues in feedback!! There is a long crafting period so if you will be away during it just PM your partner and myself so we don't get worried!

As always, Delivery Confirmation #'s or Tracking numbers are required! If you send international, keep your receipt for verification that you sent just in case it gets lost in the mail.

I have been wanting do do one of these, and summer is perfect because i love evrything about it, well except the heat.

I have a few questions,
what is the best way to clean it it seems hot water and soap would kill it since it is cardboard, do you wipe it out with a clorex wipe or something?
also how do you mail it? do you wrap it with some of that brown mailing paper? stick it in one of those envelopes?

   You know, it's funny too, b/c the first time I was in this swap, I had to wait FOREVER to get a juice box to mail out the Pringles cans in.  My girls just had their birthday party and we have a bunch of leftover stack of juice box boxes as tall as my shortest girl, behind the chair in the living room!     (Maybe it's karma...saying "Sign up....sign up....sign up.....")

Oh that is most definitely a sign! I'll back that Karma for sure

Technically you can mail the can all by itself, but you decorate the can in most cases so I wouldn't recommend that! I used the box that Kool-Aid Jammers come in, they are the perfect length of box with enough room around them if you wanted to send something extra to your partner! You can use an envelope too but I would recommend one off the plastic-y bubble ones so it has less chance of it breaking open or damaging your can!! Oh and Clorex/baby wipes/alcohol wipes work perfect for cleaning! Prevents from water damage for sure! Hope that helps a little!!

So we are up to 3 of us now!!

To add to Slingmomma's cleaning tips after cleaning if it still smells a little like the flavor, add a little baking soda to the can, shake it up and let it sit for a couple days.  That helps the smell a lot.  Some of those flavors can be very strong.  lol 

I'm hoping to join, just want to make sure I'll have the time to dedicate to it.
