How to Make a nice and neat FB

Friendship book Often called an FB. Most swappers are speaking about a regular FB when using this term, though this term can also be used in more general sense to refer to any/all of these types of books. A regular FB often (but not always) is a few sheets of paper with a decorated cover, usually stapled together, to make a small book. Typically FBs will fit in a regular envelope, so that several can be sent at one time for relatively little postage. One person will make the FB and include on it information about who the FB is for including their address and who they are. They will also include who they are as the creator of the book (these can be created by and for the same person). The book is then sent to another FB collector/signer. The recipient will add their personal information: name, address, and sometimes additional information such as whether they're looking for new pen pals, new swaps, date of birth, or anything else they choose to include. The book continues to be sent to other people until it is full. Typically whoever fills it up will return to the person for whom it was made.

Here are some examples which have been excellantly made by Marageret who is a member of my yahoo swapping group!!!
