A very special package arrived a little while ago from Heleen de Vaan in the Netherlands. Both of us being members of the Fiber Artists Group and lovers of all things yarn-ish, I had sent her a knit/woven card quite some time ago. Well it was my turn to be treated and surprised with her astounding knit creation made just for me...
Here is the back of the knit purse...…

In keeping with our recent mail art exchanges detailing the cultural and topographical nuances of our respective cities, Dean send me an oversized placard emblazoned with city of Paris district (les arrondisements) maps, with a foreboding warning concerning the car parking situation in the City of Lights:

To Pay, or not to Pay;

This will be a sort of Blog Jam, therefore. (I am starting to feel like a binge-blogger!)
I have also decided to enlist the help of an…

Wait... oh, make that, "I got a hand from Dustin Hamby!"
This piece--Midas's gold hand--arrived just like this (naked; no envelope). As if the piece wasn't amazing enough as it is, I'm impressed that its unique shape made it through the mail all in one piece. The back side is made of felt and the address label, return address label, and stamp are all glued…

I have been feeling so badly about not posting the entries from the 2012 Skull appreciation day Mail Art exhibit. BUT I'm finally getting to it, and if you entered last year, please check the blog to see if yours has been posted yet. I'm doing a few at a time because I have a shared scanner these days. I'll get them all up soon, because the 2013 event is coming up soon. You can prepared for it and once I have the details, I'll post them and you can enter your skull!

Valentine told me a while ago he had sent a package, a mail art starter kit, to Rider, my seven year old and I have been biting my tongue trying to keep it secret! Well, it arrived on a beautiful day yesterday when we were all out working in the garden and the secret spilled out, wonder after wonders! …

Just in time for the last class, (and library exhibit, we think) ,Taidgh's brilliant envelope arrived with a booklet letter on mail art-we've been given the go ahead to quote him in the exhibition catalogue, whatever form that might take! So-behold!…
