Hello, hello! Just a quick update today. If you’ve been following the #2017sve hashtag on Instagram, the Secret Valentine Exchange is hoppin’! There are so many fun sneak peeks and quite a few people have already received gifts (I was particularly shocked that my gift to Australia got there in a blink of an eye because I was not, um, totally on the ball). Amazing!
I’ll do another SVE update next week, but Ute and I wanted to send out a reminder that because we ended up with over 400 people in 30 countries, the parcels are traveling far and wide. This means that it’s likely that some gifts will be a few days late due to unpredictable delivery systems. If you think your gifts will be extremely late (more than 2 weeks, say), do let us know at secret.valentine.exchange@gmail.com and we’re happy to contact your partner. We appreciate everyone’s patience in advance!
Have a wonderful rest of the week! I was attempting a post for tomorrow but due to some deadlines that cropped up, it looks like I’ll do a Monday post instead. Today’s theme is flexibility!
So many presents
To spread handmade love worldwide
It’s soul-nourishing
I am having such a great time looking at all the gifts. I feel like I get a color combo art education with each one! So many thoughtful gifts in one place. Just WOW!!!!!! Thank you Ute and Sanae, it makes me so happy!
It makes us so happy too, Greta! So much love and kindness and creativity out there – it’s pretty mind-blowing!
Thank you for organising the 2017SVE. I had an excellent time. As I’m not on IG I thought I’d post a link to my blogpost:
