I took part in my first Curiosity Project this month and received my box on saturday. For those of you who don’t know it’s a brilliant idea thought up by a lovely lady called Tiffany who is a wedding planner and stylist by day and by night the orchestrater of The Curiosity Project . The project is a brain wave she had combining all the social media we use with the old childhood tradition of chain letters and the excitement of getting a parcel in the post (something I absolutely love too)
Each year there are a few different curiosity projects running, I’ve just completed the Christmas one and there will be another one starting in the new year, you sign up and submit a bit of blurb about yourself, then you are matched up with a recipient who is kept anonymous you then have to put together an wonderous box of goodies (the budget is £20 max) to send to this Curious stranger. You can make things, buy things, do whatever you want really, then package it up beautifully and pop it in the post. Meanwhile you have been matched up with another sender and after about a month you receive a box of wonders from them!
You take some lovely photos and email them to the Curiosity Project blog! It’s all very fun and exciting…Tiffany describes it better here
I got my box at the weekend and here’s some pictures of the AMAZING stuff i received from my anonymous sender, you can see the post on the blog about my box here
Doing this was really so much fun! I think I will sign up to the one that’s starting in January too!
