top secret matchbox - newbie friendly

create a matchbox based around a secret you have and want to share with the world. it can be silly, serious, personal, random... just as long as it's a secret. think of those post secret books for your example.

inside the matchbox you will place a folded up piece of paper that bares your secret. if you want to get extra creative you can decorate the paper according to your secret too. but remember, IT IS A SECRET so whoever you send to has to keep their lips sealed too after they read it.

as far as stuffing tiny goodies and items into the matchbox along with the secret, one can never have enough right? so go ahead and place sender's choice of items in the matchbox with your secret. (look at users profiles for ideas of likes/dislikes though). the goodies inside do not have to match the theme.

to explain this a bit more simply:

• 1 32ct. (the small kind) matchbox, 1 partner
• decorate the matchbox according to the theme of your secret
• write your secret on a piece of paper (decorating it according to the secret too is optional)
• fold up the paper and place it in the matchbox
• add other items of your liking to stuff the matchbox too

this has a quick turn around of 2 weeks (one to sign up and start your matchbox and one to finish up your matchbox and mail it out).

THE USUAL 411:

• no recent 1s or 3s (although i do my best to keep this group safe from that anyway)
• newbies have to message me before joining but i will welcome you if i get a message from you first, no message = banned from swap
• although i welcome newbies i ask that you have 5 type 3 swaps completed before joining
• send on time, if you can't COMMUNICATE with your partner & if you need someone to angel, contact me. i understand life happens.
• boo hiss to flakers, you're not welcome and if you flake on a swap you will be banned from the group and added to the flaker group list
• this swap has plenty of international love
