Diane!  Vermina asked me to thank you for your kind words and send you this.I am glad Walmarth is accepting.  Must be open I hope they deliver we are in a lockdown and cannot go shopping but I will try to get W to send me some trash.

Comment by Mick Boyle on January 7, 2021 at 5:55pm

DianeKeys  Thanks. I'm having a Trashpo spree lately, It has boosted my mood.

I like your Walmarth card. I just find it hard to go there without feeling a certain amount of guilt though.

Comment by Mick Boyle on January 7, 2021 at 5:51pm

Mail Art Martha  I like your Vermina {I am pro rat and pro cute rat} too and thanks for the feedback.

Comment by DianeKeys on January 6, 2021 at 7:52pm

Walmarth is accepting!

Comment by DianeKeys on January 6, 2021 at 2:27pm

What a great trash find Mick! Love your codllage and seeing your work again.

Vermina is cute for sure. What a great mascot

Comment by Sabrina S on January 6, 2021 at 9:28am

Thank you and I agree, Martha. Rats are cute, too. Vermina is definitely cute! Antiratism is a thing and it includes the "rats of the air", feral pigeons, that often are hated despite being very pretty. We would look down at heel if we would need to search our food in the dumpsters. 

Diane, one low maintance pet, indeed! Sadly my husband is allergic to it, shitty house-dust-allergy. But I can hide it under the shelf in the hallway, I mean, it lived there for some time already, judging from it's size and not detected by my husband. 

Comment by Mail Art Martha on January 6, 2021 at 6:43am

Wow! love all the new stuff.

Diane! your mask is a must!

Sabrina! A beautiful rat it is, obviously, my own Vermina was born to adorn my early Trashpo. Vermina is usually dubbed 'a pretty mouse' by those who

cannot bring themselves to accept that a rat can be cute. There is a prevalent antiratism in the population everywhere. Vermina is so hurt.

And Mick! Yours is the first Figurative Trashpo I have seen. Excellent!

Bradford, hadn't thought of the mesh not being avocado colored. They don't usually or always correspond do they? They should.

Love the wollen mouse Sabrina.-low maintenance pet!
