Mail-Artist since:: 1987
My Website (without http://):: http://craftgasm.etsy.com
Why I am involved in Mail-Art:: I've been decorating envelopes and postcards for friends and family in a mail art fashion since I was able to write -- I just didn't know if was called anything or that there were other people doing it! Since I make upcycled stationery from reclaimed paper as my full-time job, I kind of HAVE to love mail in all its forms. :)
My Mail-Adress (snail and/or E-mail): 1629 R Street NW, Apt. B
