Hi, folks, please read, as I finalized all the information (thanks).
Post Secret project SIGN UP CLOSED
Project due date: end of Feb! If I don't receive the cards by the first week of March, we take a hard line, and you will not be in this project. The only reason we do that is because without doing that, things were dragging out for months and months.
For examples
http://www.postsecret.com (or postsecret on instagram / google etc)
Make at least 1 post secret postcard for each participant. This means you will be making a minimum of 8 postcards but of course make as many as you want! You can make all 8 the same or do variations or make each one different. Whatever makes you happy.
Fine to add your name or be anonymous. Secrets in the pen pal project must STAY in the pen pal project either way! If you want me to choose who your postcards go to, I'm always delighted. If you prefer to choose who each of your postcards go to, then make sure to label them with the person's screen name on the opposite side of the card as your secret (and if you decide to pick who each of your postcards go to please write "To" so that I don't get mixed up and think you are the one who made the postcard. If you want someone to know you made the postcard then write "From" or leave them anonymous- up to you).
ALL postcards will be mailed to me in a single package by you, and I will compile them in a packet for each of you and send them to you. When you send me your packet of postcards, please make sure you include your return address on the package. If you don't have my address and need it, just text or PM me. For my name on the front of your package please use "Jenny S."
THEME: You can do any theme you want (including a theme that is not one of my suggested themes) but the suggested theme is work. I chose this because I have been having a tough time over the past years with adjusting to jobs and such. Work includes anything related such as disability and retirement. Funny or serious. An alternative theme, if the work one doesn't appeal to you, is: anything related to the New Year.
Size of postcard (anything within reason). Please no unsealed glitter or scents.

Any newbies, so glad you are joining us! If any questions, just ask on the thread, and we will help guide you!
Piece of advice to newbies: End of Feb sounds like a lot of time but many of us Oldies have had the experience of waiting too long and then barely finishing or not finishing, so it is much better to pretend the due date is a week earlier- at least! It will be much less stressful for you in the end that way!
Thanks for reading this!
