Quote from DKult Member Meeah Williams

"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Comment by DKeys on November 5, 2011 at 8:38pm: Catherine included some found shopping lists from Belgium-they are fantastic except I can't read anything on them except pasta, red bull, kiwi, and sandwiches and something that looks like chocolate. It's all asemic to me

Comment by DKeys on November 5, 2011 at 8:12pm: Beautiful Nancy-mother nature is the best artist.

Rain art would be great.

I really need a scanner but my cats constantly sit on them because they are warm and press the buttons and blitz them out. Neil-sounds like you've been though hell but have your signature positive attitude that I'm sure was inspiring to people.

Received great trashpo from Catherine Petre today with a phone book envelope and an uncancelled stamp. Catherine , it will most likely make it's way back to you!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend

in trash we trust
