Thai Massage etc. from Erni Bar

[DKeys]

Erni says of this magazine, "NEST magazine did interest me only because of Fort Thunder that doesn't exist anymore. They had the pure TRASH LIFESTYLE AT HOME: (pictured above)"

I've concluded that half of Erni's art is about the packaging and the other half what's inside. I usually take quite a long time before opening his packages just by being entertained by the outside and also when I get up the strength and courage to try to break through all the tape he uses. The collage is of the large Erni Bar variety and is titled "Invitation Too Thai Message" . the "Nest" magazine of interiors is in English and looks to be out of Ohio. Thanks for this great art Erni you always surprise me

Don't worry, it's not your fault. The spell chick ended up at my house for some reason and I'm holding her hostage until she straightens out my attitude a bit.

[Nancy Bell Scott]

Missed that! Thanks for the tip, Erni.

[Nancy Bell Scott]

Yes, there are, Erni. Interesting site, and I can't even read it--still interesting!

Amazing place featured in the mag., and in Ohio, which would probably be on most people's list at about number 8,547 for likelihood. Gives me hope. Thanks for the great blog, Diane! You are so right about Erni's packaging--it's at least half the mail art experience when it comes from him.

It's a very artistic hoard since it's cleverly glued or adhered to the walls as opposed to covering the whole floor. Sort of like the trashpo version of Wonka's edible wallpaper. I do tend to think of Thai Massage as risque, but I don't judge and now itz making me crave a thai iced tea!
