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

Trashpo find of the day

Comment by Mail Art Martha on May 30, 2014 at 3:23pm

Ah! Those familiar reality issues, Diane. My husband supports my Trashpo Activities, even finds trash to poetise. My daughter twists her nose at them and I haven't tried my son, too scary.

I got a problem: is trash one produces acceptable to Trashpogrify or it has to be only found trash? I am incline towards the found kind.

But this is the creme de la creme. A wonderful, magical Vizma Bruns trashbook. I could just fondle it for days. Seriously.

So, Vizma, Sparkle, Phrynie, Crocodile Barbie, and Vixen Oblivious...thank you all. I love you to pieces!

Sticky Bitches is a whole other band--rivals I think.  there was even a law suit over them stealing lyrics.  They claimed they didn't know "Fuk shit up" was trademarked by the NLB.

Comment by Dan Mouer on May 28, 2014 at 6:03pm

Mail art within mail art!. Now we're talking. All my down under wives talking at once. No sure what they're saying, but I know Vizma loves me. The Washi tape tells me so.

Comment by Dan Mouer on May 28, 2014 at 6:02pm

More vexing Vixenisms...and I smell a taint of Meen Sheena here as well...Monkeying around with nostickum stickum. I much prefers my bitches sticky!

Comment by Dan Mouer on May 28, 2014 at 5:49pm

Oooo. and inside my magical mapvelope from Vizma I found this enticing little tidbit. The sort of package one expects to find engulfing a Chinese money gift. And inside...

A genuine Naughty List Bitches fridge magnet! OMG!!! This must be from Vizma's pal Vixen.

Comment by DKeys on May 28, 2014 at 5:46pm

Dan--you never know with Vizma.  She could jump out of a cake when you open for all you know!!!  She is the queen of washi tape and clever comments.

Martha--can't wait!!  still pondering what to send you.  Haven't been making trashpo lately as I am having fun dyeing paper. my daughter likes my trashpo better and my son only likes art that 'has a theme' as he calls it--not just shit glued down:)  can't please em all.  Just say No!!! to reality issues!!!  it's all just a high stakes game with rules that someone else made up. someone with a terrible sense of humor!!!

Comment by Mail Art Martha on May 28, 2014 at 5:18pm

Garbacia by praised! I found a tiny bit of rubbish which is on its way to you Diane.I got the piece of banner too, my husband managed to jump up and grabbed it. I don'know what to do with it though. A scarf ? in case the pills do not completely cure those painful reality issues? Go Trashpo indeed! Great slogan Nancy.

Comment by Dan Mouer on May 28, 2014 at 5:04pm

It is a map of a whole new world just for me that has arrived from Waitpinga! It's a world whose boundaries are defined by Washi Tape and L.O.V.E. I carefully peel back the tape anxious to find what wonders await me...and I am greeted by...well just wait and it will all be revealed...soon...
