Literal and Litterate Trashbook from Prettylilly!!

I am amazed by the different trashbooks I have received. This one was pure genius as Sue sent me a book about trash and recycling, yet included bits of trash tucked in between all the pages. It took me forever to figure out why she had the whole book covered in tape and I wondered if I was supposed to unwrap it or not or if she was making a statement, but when I opening it I found wonderful trashpo fodder and more asemic trashpo pieces. I also like how she put a rubber glove in the beginning of the book as though it was CSI or commenting on the idea of trash/dirt/pollution etc.Thanks for sending this P. Lily (your rap name?)
