If you’ve never heard of the secret sister gift exchange, you might be missing out. It works sort of like chain mail used to, where you would send one letter and receive many back. In this exchange, six women invite six of their friends to join in. That results in 36 women who are all supposed to send gifts to one another. First, everyone sends gifts to the first person on the secret list. Then it repeats for the second, and so on. In the end, you’re supposed to end up with 36 gifts. If this sort of thing sounds like your speed, gather up some of your friends and start one. Here are 50 secret sister gift ideas to get you started:
