Post Secret Swap

Sorry for the radio silence, people. My hard drive crashed and I needed to install a new one, so I’ve been without a computer since… Thursday? Friday? Something like that. Anyway, on to crafts:

I recently tried my hand at swap organizing! I put together and organized (with co-organizer edwards1) a Post Secret swap. If you don’t know about Post Secret, check out the official website here. The basic premise is that people write their secrets (normally with an artsy element) and send them to Frank and he puts some of them on the blog. He’s also done several books of Post Secret cards.

This swap was similar. I put everyone into groups and gave everyone some addresses. Each person made five secrets and sent them to five different people and got five secrets, one from each person. Here are the secrets that I received:

My secret still secret

For 15 years, my stepfather and I didn’t get along. For one 1 year, we didn’t speak. The last 5 years have been great. All it took was 120 miles.

I may not cry in front of other people but that doesn’t mean I don’t cry.

I would say yes in a heartbeat.

Back:

We’re not even dating… He knows I have feelings for him… He doesn’t know I’m in LOVE him!

I think Harry Potter sucks!!

Mine were also quite crafty, but I’m not going to post them here (because they’re secret). If you want to see the rest of the secrets in the swap (including mine), the gallery is located here.
