DECOS - Do you miss them?

Hey Everyone! I’m so happy for the interest. To keep the weight down, we could use thin paper for the pages and keep them under 10 pages. I’m going to send one to each of you on the discussion board! Yay!

ok, I am going to send one to everybody in the group, too. 

Hi

Any topic is fine. Mine have 6 pages. Send to IUOMA artists who are in this group. Keep them moving. Post the full decos when you get them back. 

My hair-themed Deco below.

cool

Here’s what I usually write in my decos:

Hi,

I am going to send decos with the following topics: women, silence, someone must have told a lie, water, migration, paradise, heroes.

Can't wait to receive yours!

regards

Uta

a college of mine in Geneva wants to part of the projet, she is a brilliant icon painter, I'll take care of sending your decos to her as well, she is not on IUOMA

Hi Bonnie

I got the deco today.  I've never done this before and wonder: after I finish a page (one side, right) who do I send it on to ?  Does it matter, or I choose someone in the group randomly?

Got my deco yesterday in the mail!

My first deco.  

I've never heard of a deco, but want to try!  Where does the name "deco" come from?

Send 'em here:

Hey Everyone, to answer Amy’s question, I believe the name “Deco” simply comes from “decoration” but I’m not completely positive! LOL! I think they may be similar to what some call “colab books” for collaboration. Have no fear. You will see when you get it. Just decorate a page in the little book according to the theme and send it to another friend in this group. Please ask if you have questions! Hugs!

I’m sending one to everyone in the group!

I need someone to send Bonnie's deco on to. :)

Wow I have two DECOS to work on already! This one is from BonnieDiva via Heidi Monster!

Amber - I’d like to try my hand at DECOS! Send one my way, please. Thanks!

You got it Jayne!!

DECO arrived from Carolyn Cline: Bright.  I will send it on to Amber

I know what I am working on this week.

Melissa Wand, "Wedding Deco" flying to you!

Loving the Decos! Here's one started by Carol Cline "Bright Colors Deco" It reminds me a little bit of the aboriginal paintings of native Australians. 

I received 3 DECO Books in the last couple of days!!!! Hooray!!! PLUS, I started my own: FOUND POETRY. If you happen to get mine in the mail you can interpret the subject any way you want. No Rules....Just have fun!

I haven’t received any decos yet. Please feel free to sent some to me. Hugs, Bonnie

I have not received any decos yet so if anyone has any ready feel free to send them to me ;)

I would be happy to send you one Carolyn!

Hi Friends,

Years ago, like Bonniediva I too made Decos but then things kind of dwindled away. I wasn't going to join this group because I am ALWAYS BUSY but have decided to try it for a while. Thanks to Bonniediva , Carolyn and the others who wanted me to join.

So here I am. :)

Hugs,

Norma

Kayenderes.......I am mailing  you some Deco books Monday.  . 

I am sending 5 decos from Dublin, Ireland, in a kupple of days to Amber,

Melanie, Jimmy (let's meet some time in Berlin?), Jon and Manda.

Bonniediva, I sent you a decos weeks ago. Trans Atlantic traffic jam?

Great Dear Norma.  I will send you a couple Tuesday.   Thank you for jointing. 

Yes Dear Melissa Wand.  I would love to do the Found Poetry.   Send me some and I( will send you some.    Have funny

Two Decos arrived while I was on vacation -- one started by Amber and send by Melissa. The other started AND sent by Melissa. I love them both and will get to work on them soon, I hope. I'm BURIED!

Hello,

I am interested in receiving decos - if you  have one and I have not already worked on it, then feel free to send it to me.

I am wondering why everyone is asking who to send them to instead of just sending to someone in the group?  Let me know if I'm wrong, but I don't think that permission is necessary to send mail art once someone joins a group.

Looking forward to more decos--

No Carolyn, Toni made this. It is a nice example of pieced together, found poetry.

Hey Deco friends, 

Just remember that decos can get heavy, so please try to use lightweight materials. Postage can get high. Also, avoid heavy embellishments. Those can cause problems for customs when mailing internationally.

With love and hugs! Bonniediva

Amy is correct. You can feel free to send to anyone in the group! 

Received my first DECO from Bonniediva today. So this is how they look like. Nice. Thanks, Bonniediva. I'll do my best.

Hi BonnieDiva, I received your coffee deco, added and passed it on. Thanks !
