Yes, the title is so true.  Trashpo boekies are made with loving hands; by people who love to share.  They are unique, creative, tiny works of art.  Little bits of intriguing scraps, found, sorted, painted, and given a new life when the scraps are bound together.  There is mystery, drama, wonder, fun, and much more, to enjoy in these tiny booklets.  The paper/items included have come into the posession of the artists in random ways, but they are not randomly assembled.  They are prepared…

Whoo Hooo!  At last one of Dean's fabulous Rubber Band Webs has graced my mailbox.  And what a delight it is.  Many thanks to you, Dean. 

It has everything a girl could want and lots more to ponder.  Like who ate that chocolate bar and was it delicious?  Did Dean eat it or was it the postman that delivered it to my house?  Who but Dean would think of combining a tiny book, a pin with a running man, an army tank, a shoe string and lots of ribber bands, into an object of mail…

What a lucky gal I am.  This season has been the most interesting holiday card season ever.  I have been fortunate to receive the most interesting mail art.

This is from Lisa AKA Skybridge Studios and one of my best connections to the FLUXUS movement.  This is all quite new to me and I always appreciate all of the help I can get.  A manifesto & a wonderful, scrappy, Trashpo ornament.

Mad Madge asked me how to do the Jon Foster tape transfer technique and I told her.  She then created (that very evening) some tape transfers.  I'm not sure if this is one of the first, but I sure do like how she has added the twist of sewing.  MM did note that it was her favorite one and she sent it to me!  An extra bonus - she has dated it 11/11. …
