Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope

If you liked PostSecret, then you’ll want to check out IGotAnEnvelope, as it follows a similar formula.

IGotAnEnvelope is a continuous art project where people leave empty self-addressed stamped envelopes in public places to be picked up and filled by others, who then send them back.

To participate:

1. Write the following message on a small sheet of paper:
   

   Dear finder, put something personal inside the envelope and then return it to me. Be as original and artistic as possible and the content of the envelope will be submitted to igotanenvelope.com.

2. Attach the sheet (with a paper clip) to the envelope.
3. Write your address and put a valid stamp on the envelope.
4. Leave the envelope in a public place and wait for its return.

Then:

Take a close-up picture of the content, or scan it, and email it at igotanenvelope@gmail.com (be sure to indicate where you left your envelope).

You can also check out the IGotAnEnvelope site for photos of the envelopes that have been returned so far, and there are some really fantastic results, so I recommend giving it a look.
