cheerful Trashpo boekie from Katerina

This little boekie grins from page to page. and the choco glam, Plaisir wrap, can't help but see a mini muffin. It is overcast here today and this gem brings in the sunshine. Thanks you Katerina!

Diane Keys aims for white trash

 She wanted this trashbook pale and snowy, like the season: 

It's very successful both as a trashbook and in fulfilling her wish for me to have white trash. I love it! Thank you very much, Diane, I too am fulfilled!  Four more photos follow, and viewers will see that some holiday color did sneak in there. A favorite is the 2nd Place ribbon in the last photo. It…

Coveted work from Alicia Starr

Envious of the coinbook pages Alicia has sent others, I received a coinbook and couldn't be happier: 

This coinbook is painted thickly and beautifully with mostly copper-penny-color paint, has a few more "pages" to it (Alicia pasted the…

Robbery suspects: Two of IUOMA's finest?

You be the judge: Interesting take on things posed on the envelope, too, about other IUOMA finests: Here we have "Miss Butts went swimming with her neck flotation device in Lake Erie, 1920," an absolute winner done by Nadine Wendell-Mojica:…

TrashPo-litzer Certificate of Nomination AND trashbook from the Queen

What more could a trashpo executive ask for? Diane wrote that this is the first low-budget certificate of nomination for the TrashPo-litzer, but perhaps "executive" is too glorious a word for the mere manager of the claims department. I should be more humble, and this card she included helps with that (note the VOID): …

Neil Gordon sends me an extremely lovable trashpo mail art

It's hard to pinpoint why, but Neil's asemic envelope--which IS the art, with just a sliver of grocery bag holding it together along with an abundance of clear tape--stole my heart. I asked him, with hope that the answer would be no, whether I need to…

Planet trash from Skybridge Studios

Sometimes open covetousness pays off:

Diane Keys posted Moon trash she had received from Lisa--beautiful squashed can Lisa found under a tree--and I like a pig said I wished she'd found two. She had! I couldn't believe it. It was my birthday, so she mounted it that same day, wrapped it in great cowboy paper, and mailed it off. Also because of the day, the postal…

Received from "non-glam," "no glitz," "no glory" Diane Keys

This beautiful--and relatively minimal!?--art on cardboard:

with nearly matching envelope: I love them both, and she included some delicate texts for me to use:…

Trashpo Snooky from Angie

Well, Snooky himself is clean as always: But I think Snooky is becoming more haptic? That's for the experts to decide. Angie questioned in her note to me whether this is truly trashpo, but it IS art. Yes, and I'd say it's both, because there is proof that some trash is included in this piece by Angie. Not tons, but it doesn't take tons. It's an excellent haptic trashpo collage… Continue

From Katerina and Dean in Paris

French cerealism and trashpo: Behind on blogging, but realized today that this had better be put up before Katerina gets home from Paris, which is probably imminent? Very fun card, thanks you…

Should We Be Worried About Thom Courcelle ...

that he created so many trashbooks in one week? One has to wonder, is it possible he is turning COB: compulsive obsessive boo? (I mean that in the best possible way, Thom.) This has been here for a little while, and whenever I'd be about to blog it, someone else would blog theirs. So we have seen several different ones, all wonderful. Above is the cover, and also the front of the… Continue

Trashpo cerealism from Katerina

An unexpected treat: No sand, but there's just about everything else "po" about this card. I love it, and it's taped in a shiny, snug way that makes me want to carry it around all day. Thank you so much, Katerina, and I also received your Asemics #5 pages, which have already been blogged, and they are, as Boss Cheryl would say, FAB! Still loving those stamps,… Continue

Trashpo myths and dinosaurs from Theresa in Ohio

Wrapped in lush green tissue paper (a paper I cherish as it is not available here), Theresa sends a Trashpo beauty, full of Greek myths and dinosaurs, bond with wispy golden threads!

(Well, Elvis is a god, too!)…

The "SORRY" slip indicating refusal of the city to pick up yardwaste is a psychedelic green that apparently insults a scanner.  Please see initial… Continue

My heart's desire, from Diane Keys

A trash book from our trashpo leader:

That's the front, and this is the back:

Diane and her work have made me finally understand why I save stuff, why I love the crooked edges and wrinkles and accidents on the detritus of our lives: because they're…
