Braille Mail

Braille is a beautiful way to connect with people all over the world who use it to read and also those who just want to touch and write in the most wonderful writing system ever invented.Braille should be everywhere, especially in Postal art, but sadly it is not. But we are here to change that one Braille Letter and Card at a time.The sending of Brailled and Tactile letters through the Post is called a “Cecogram” or “Free Literature for the Blind”, and it is an inspectable postal class that is…See More

"what a wonderful little tactile surprise was to find the tiny envelope that MomKat sent me some time ago. The string and Braille are a wonderful contrast to the photo and glitter paper collage! Thanks for being a part of my Project!"

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
It is fun to send and receive mail and art! I am an old school Lesbian and love all things Rainbow and Queer, and Happy and Gay! I also am obsessed with CATS, all kinds of cats, because they are the best!
I have a love of sending and receiving tactile oddities and Braille things through the Post. I am Blind/Visually Impaired and would love to connect with others who love tactile art and letters. I also love cats, rainbows and unicorn like all queers do! I am especially interested in the back and forth of trading things through the Post, like letters, postcards, original artwork and fun Large Print stuff. I am not totally Blind, and love bright colors and bold bright colors. Send me something you make and I will return a Braille tactile letter to you using the “Free Matter for the Blind” International Postal Class. It will be fun!

Hi 😃 Thank you for notifying me about your mail, I am glad you got it safe, and you like them all. The dead leave college base colors was just bunch of testing colors when I was painting, I am glad you like it. I like the paper flowers and I use for college or just for decoupage.

I can’t describe how excited I was when I got this wonderfully colorful hand made map envelope. It rattled and was puffy and so mysterious to the postmaster. It has a Roy Lichtenstein lemon fish art stamp, in addition to much real postage that really completed the look. Inside it was even more amazing than the outside! We got  a “Fish Island” post card and the sound was a giant round google eye! It has a tactile fish shaped map of the island. There is much glitter paper, with rhinestones, tissue paper puffs, and fish lips. The names of the island places are as follows: Bulge Eye Beach, North Lookout Light House, South Lookout Light House, Fliptail Forest, Scaley MT. Range, Fish Hook Bay. This is so FUN-ny. I asked for something Tactile and FUN, and this really is! Thanks so much to Melissa Wand for your FUNtastic Fish Island!

Next amazing interpretation of the Tactile Art prompt is a series of five colorful squares that have the letters A, M, B, E, R, done in Churro wool from the American Southwest. The orange, red yellow, pink and blue striped background is made with India ink. It is done in the style of Paul Klee, and made by Friend to the Blind, Arielle. Thanks so much!

M. Mouser’s return to Crackerjack Kid.

At 10:07pm on April 2, 2024, M. Mouser DiGerlando said…

Thank you to everyone who is sending me such cool returns!

I wish to first thank Crackerjack Kid for his wonderful classic Mail Art that will thrill another generation of kiddos here! His epic Queens tax is as amazing as we could imagine, with 14 pairs of earrings, 2 pendants, gold watch, some funny little dodads, a mini wingtip shoe, a tiny music box, a calculator to add it up, and his famous token. We Brailled a return and receipt. Thanks again Chuck

Thanx! I just received your mail art... I am sending you my mail art soon... Greetings!

I loved the Dr Suess One Fish page with Braille that you sent! My daughter has a friend whose 4-year-old named Cal is just learning to use his Braille machine, so I sent it along to him, with a FLUXFISH with a glitter outline that he should be able to make out, too! --XO Coco

At 3:02pm on March 28, 2024, Coco Muchmore said…

You're so welcome! Thank you for letting me know it arrived! 

At 1:17pm on March 28, 2024, M. Mouser DiGerlando said…

This beautiful little picture has made by Coco with a geometric pattern that reminds me of a bike gear or cog set. It is colorfully colored in bright gel pens that makes is tactile to touch. It has a lovely note on the back that says “I TOOK MY GLASSES OFF TO DRAW THIS.❤️ COCO” that is such a creative idea! Also includes was a post card that is super tactile with two felt like rectangles, one gold,  the other mauve, that became more touchy with the folds to fit it in to the envelope. Thanks so much Coco!

So….this one is from Cracker Jack Kid, and I am not sure what exactly they are but they are quite tactile. One is a rectangle 1.5x2.5 inch flat rubber with little houses on it and in the center is a circle with the words “The Vermont Country Store” and a building. The other is a triangle of some strange paper like material that has been perforated three vertices lines and one across the bottom. Very cool and tactile, thanks Chuck!

At 12:48pm on March 28, 2024, M. Mouser DiGerlando said…

This one from Portland Oregon had a longer note that explains exactly what is inside the envelope. “Dear Friend, Thank-you for the kind note and for thinking of me. Inside this post you will find lettuce seeds and two Meowjuana sticks that my feline palls, Lenora and Jane, do not prefer. I find them delightful to touch. With love Abbie” Thanks so much you three!

We got more tiny envelopes in the Post!

This is a wonderful tactile object that is quite flat and discrete. It also came with a nice note, “Dear M. Mouser, I used to be into origami a long time ago. The only thing I ember how to make is a pig. Oink Oink!” The little white pig is perfect, thanks  Allen!
