I am excited that there is interest in this swap! The idea is to create a mini binder, The empty binders are usually around $3-$5 and compatible with 5.5" x 8.5" pages. Here is one: http://www.target.com/p/avery-durable-view-binder-with-round-rings-5-1-2-x-8-1-2-1-white/-/A-16874312#prodSlot=medium_1_7&term=mini+binder
You can buy or make the contents of the binder. I have seen quite a few ideas out there on Pinterest for how to put these together as well as some printable templates.
I imagine these being Farmgirl planners to keep track of farm girl addresses, merit badge notes, swaps, inspiration, gardening ideas, etc. Use your imagination!
Sign ups will end May 20th. Mail out will be June 15th to give everyone plenty of time to get creative.
Here are a few ideas/resources I think you all might enjoy:

Hi Joyce,
Just wanted to check in and see if your binder has arrived yet. I am not sure what the status of your postal service is, but I sent it some time ago and hope it hasn't been lost in transit! Hope all is well there. :)

Hi Sarah - from what I understand, it's still unresolved...I was debating myself I should risk sending it Monday or not. I will let you know for sure after I talk to my husband to see what he thinks is going to happen. Joyce

Any news Joyce? I saw that Jill had sent the farmgirl swap item your way, so I wasn't sure if your strike there was over or if it was more of a leap of faith. :) Let me know.

You are very Welcome Amy. The other one I made had a lot of handwork in it too, but it was completely different than this one. Glad you liked this one.

Oh Brenda, when I opened the package I couldn't get over how beautiful the binder you made is! So much hand work went into it, it's amazing. I love the recurring butterfly theme! Every page is something special, I had a really hard time deciding what to post pictures of. I wanted to show every single page, but here's what I settled for:
The front cover and extra goodies. I just realized the pretty heart ornament you made isn't in the picture, but I love it, too!
One of the handmade pockets with pretty paper goodies to play with.
Two of the many inspirational quotes inside.
Another elaborate pocket page with inspiring words and sparkly butterflies.
This is a treasure that I will enjoy forever. Thank you so very much!
Hugs and Happy Day!

Amy and Sara your binders are on there way. Sorry to take so long. I did a lot of cutting out by hand. It took longer than I thought it would. These are the first binders I have ever made. Hope you both like them.
Thank You Both! for the ones you sent me they are Great!
The top and bottom pictures are from Amy and the two in the middle are from Sara. Great jobs both of you!
