PostSecret- Worldwide Arts Project


In winter do you think of secrets? Do lie warm and snuggly and think of those delicious secrets from your past? Do you sometimes think of painful memories that no one else has shared? Well I highly recommend you check out the blog www.postsecret.blogspot.com/ .

Post Secret is a longstanding and continuing community mail project. It invites people from all over the world to mail in their hidden secrets on one side of a postcard in an artistic manner. Each Sunday, a chosen 20 of these are posted on this site. Interestingly this site is really only meant to give a weekly glimpse, as old posts are discarded fairly quickly and are virtually impossible to access.

This started as an experiment and entries have continued to roll in revealing secrets about everything from sexual misconduct to embarassing habits to secret desires!! This site is extremely popular and over the years has displayed over 2500 pieces of artwork from across the globe.
So if you wanted to create your own postcard and send it in with one of YOUR secrets, send it to the following address:

Post Secret 13345
Copper Ridge Rd
Germantown, Maryland 20874

Welcome to the world of global secrets !!

  1. I just found my new favourite website!!! Thanks, Bri! It's so interesting reading the secrets and on creative postcards too. I love it!! I'm going to share the link with others =)
    I might send in my own little secret too one day =) You'll know it's mine because the postcard won't be so creative, lol.
