Can Erni get more diverse? Bread art, interactive drink art, wash art, crushed-can trashpo art, and more from the Haptic Werewolf

All in a nice (flowery, I might add) box, one of many to join the studio collection here as functional mail art:

That is scanned bread art. Each is marked on one side as bread art, and on the other side we have "part one" and "part two." They are ordinary, and hard as rocks. In person they are like quietly celebratory beacons with souls of their own. Erni posted a fine photo of them a while back, and even then some kind of aura or voice emanated from them, making me covet them (silently). It was a grand surprise when these arrived in the mail, as I didn't think they were on their way here. They are much loved here.

Below is a scan of the interactive drink art and the wash art that arrived in the same package, with the wash art especially a favorite with its earthy and pleasant smell and in a (silken?) bag: 

Who knows, maybe one day a photo will be posted of this wash art being used. Possibly on an incomplete bathing evening.

Here is a photo (from usual pitiful camera) of a nice collection of bottle caps, plus the bread art and flowery box they and some beauteous crushed cans arrived in: 

And last but not least, scans of the crushed cans follow, a highlight in my opinion being the "monster" can, though the dots are always winners also. Erni, what can I say? It is always a very fine mail art day when a parcel from you arrives. Love from an Erni Bar Fan Club member, "in good standing" at least according to Grigori Antonin. Thank you!

Yip, I think Erni sends the MOST diverse assortment through the mail.  Its the only way to get to know your local post office employees.  Vivesh and Rajen will now keep my mail for a MONTH - in fact, until I collect it - and they are generally as excited as me - on high days I open and show them :-) X

HO! HO! is right! That same container that's in the photo (including the truck) is exactly what I would choose. It could possibly live on the roof of our building. Right now your outer packagings are in one box; most of the crushed cans are in another with a glass lid so I can see them (and a few are on the wall); larger rusted metals are on shelves; misc. stuff is in a variety of your "decorated" boxes that sometimes arrive in packages; and your collages are in a wicker stand with other larger mail arts, except "HA" is on the wall. Now for something round, eh? I look forward to it.
