Stefanie sent me this cool painted disk pr palette. It is very sturdy and a pleasure to behold. I told her that my son, when he was about three or four used to paint and collage disks of all kinds. He claimed that they had magic powers. He made one for me to put above the bed, so it would protect me. Powerful stuff! Thank you,…

Katerina sends a generous and steady stream of good vibes, here a mail art omen for 2013. I wish you a good one too, especially as your big birthday should be celebrated all year! Also, there is an early spring omen, an egg promise of birth or rebirth and invitation to a call for all things egg! Thank you so much,…

Festive greetings from an Erni fan! The telltale signs are the chocolate gold bear wrapping and a crushed found object a bottle cap? Plus cheerful Santa and reindeer! Great company to enjoy!

In the middle of Hong Kong there are peaks that no one else can see except for XX Jones.  And on the back it reads; "Said So!"

Thank you Mrs. Jones, but don't peak too soon.

So I'm following this guy out of DeVillo's Parking Garage. Some Eldorado or somethin' I dunno. Maybe it was a Monte Carlo? All cars look alike to me. Anyway, he's stopped waiting for traffic and I'm readin' the license plate...except, it's not really a license plate...I guess it's a bumper sticker. Anyway, I can't believe it....I see this name Richard…

Hard to believe, but yes, this is a Christmas greeting from Diane! The effects of her turkey and ham are indeed wonderful, filling the heart with plenty of love, joy and peace. You can never have to much of that! 

A sweet drawing from Helen, from her series "Where has the forest gone?" This one is with acuurious owl, peeking at me. Thank you very much, Helen!

But before the daffodils arrive I better catch up with blogging some more Christmas mail. Here are delightful greetings and a litte menagerie from Stripygoose. Firstly, pretty birds and a philosophical moose. Secondly, a new years resolution from a friendly fox.  Thank you very much, and somewhat late, I am wishing you Happy New Year too!…

Sorry for the belated postings!

An amazing envelope full of goodies from Grigori Antonin arrived in Greece.

Yes, there is a message that Grigori is "off-the-air", not on the internet for a while,

but luckily he is making, creating, and sending ...yay! Thank you…

Perfect collage made by a dog lover. And what a sweet dog it is, looking quite comfortable on his grassy stitched patchwork blanket. Makes me look forward to spring! Thank you, Angie and Snookie!

I have been busy making mail, and also experimenting with new ideas. After having sent off a stack of letters, I can focus a bit on blogging too. Some of you suggested that I do a foto compilation, which would make things easier, of course. But for now I have my heart set on blogging individually, even if it takes longer because it makes me pick up every piece and…

Ah, I bet Mim's girl is waiting for mail from this bloke. A letter all the way from Morocco sent by hma. And what does it bring? Plenty of good wishes for the new year! Reminds me of my only trip to Morocco, on a shoestring budget, staying with a farmer in the mountains. It was Christmas and the family lived with their animals in one room. There was a cow and an ox. It…
