Do you want to be part of this game? Sisterhood of the traveling hijab. This is a way for us to stay connected and share something in common.

5-When you receive it,you can keep it for a week,write about something you wanna share, something that happened to you when you wore the hijab,.....
6- Wash the hijab, mail hijab+scrapbook to the next person on the list
7- Let's see how far the hijab will get and how many places this hijab will see.
Let me know if you're interested to be part of this project. I will create a separate blog about it if enough people are interested. We can all be in different parts of the world, this Hijab will be the symbol of our sisterhood. Our special sisterhood connection!
Rules:
1-The first time you receive the scrapbook, you will paste a postcard about your city.

Any ideas, thoughts, comments.... are welcome

that is a pretty cool idea!
Very interesting :) I'm in.... What kind of hijab do u have in mind? I find most square and al-amira too small (ie not covering enough), so maybe a shayla is best? As long as its big enough cus also some shayla are too short or not wide enough.
Khadra,
Yeh that's what I thought too lol. Anyone is welcome to participate
Erin,
We will choose the hijab together, something that everyone can wear easily. After I create the other blog, our first task will be to choose a hijab that everyone likes. I'm fine with a Shayla:)
This is a great idea and a great way for all us sisters to connect on a different level. Im definitely gamed, so count me in. I think a shayla would be best too.
I am really excited about this.
Let's get started.
sounds really good. I am in!
such a cute idea!!!
Lolz I wouldn't want to be the last sister to see the hijab after it has been washed for soooo many times :P !!! I'll be in if you put me on first haha -joking.... I am not sure if I can participate but none the less a great idea sis :) I would love to see it's footsteps in the travels tho so keep me updated! MashaAllah!
Count me in. :)
Hijabee- I like! Count me in... hope to get the hijab though before I move (InshaAllah)!!!!!!!!!
That was pretty crafty of ya...

Let's get it on girls. If you have any additional ideas, please don't hesitate to share
Empress Anisa,
Unless you're moving in the Moon, you will still get it inshAllah lol.
Nida,
U're funny, part of the idea is to actually see how the hijab progresses so if you get it first I think it will be kinda boring lol.
I am new to the blogging world and convert to Islam. I would be interested in this!

I didn't join up for the traveling hijab but I cannot see that blog anymore...I was just wondering why not? If you are not participating can you not just see the 'progress' ?? Was looking forward to reading about the hijab's travels around the world
Aalya,
The blog has gone private. I've had different posts where I asked people who wanted to still follow the blog to send me an email or put their email address on the comment section so I can add them to the list. The reason for the blog going private is because siters will post pictures of themselves wearing the hijab. As a precaution,we just don't want those pictures to be out in the open and be copied or distributed. So if you'd like to follow, again you're welcome just leave your email on the comment section or send it to me @ heejabee@gmail.com . Thank you!
Salam Alaykim,
This is a great idea, how do I join the mailing list my email is mallak077@gmail.com please let me know.

Something to save the hijab going missing in the post is to make sure that everyone sends it recorded or trackable so it definatley gets to the next person safely insha allah.

Hi I'm Mufidah from Indonesia,,
It's a nice idea,,count me in please,,
Salaam - InshaAllah I would love to be part of this experience. Will email you iA
wow i wish i could participate :(
SubhaanAllah, this is such a cute idea!
This is what should be done, keeping the identities of the sisters anon, you should take a photo of the hijab, scan the book, and publish it online so all of us can read it. And should ask each sister to sew a button on to the hijab to represent herself so everyone can keep count of the sisters and it can be pretty and unique!. hehe
What do you think? I'm so curious what everyone wrote and this way the book can always be kept safe, etc. =) Or each sis that gets it, can send the scan/photo of her post to you, online too.
JazakAllahu Khairun!
salaam, i would love to join this experience. think its a great idea..will email you soon inshaAllah
this is an amazing idea. i would love to be a part of it and get to know the woman behind this idea. follow me at my blog too, although i am a newbie.
I wonder where the hijab and scrapbook has reached today?
Unfortunately one of the sisters did not return the hijab so this project is no longer on :( Sorry ladies
