Hi! And Welcome! You've come to the right place to post a message, contact another mail art swapper, make a comment, ask a question, acknowledge receipt of some art-in-the-mail. First names and last initials would be best.
Did you receive something wonderful in the mail and don't
know how to thank the artist? Have a question? Feel free to leave a message here for that person.
You can check for messages from your swap partner(s) and occasional announcements by your Group Swap Moderator here. Please scroll down toward the bottom of this page for the most recent messages. I usually clear messages that are over a month old.

Once participants in the 4" PAGES GROUP SWAP receive their four swapped pages in the mail, they may certainly do anything they want to with them, make a booklet or not :)
INFORMAL SWAP LIST messages have been mostly cleared out to make room for in-coming 2023 messages. If you need an address for someone on the 2022 list, contact me, I have a hard copy.
FULL-SHEET DECORATED PAPERS SWAP has been processed and is going out in this afternoon's mail. Some very lovely designs came in for this exchange. Honi
I send Happy New Year to all this 2023. I am thankful for all my 80 years of good life. I thank Creator for all of my family and now great grand children.
Yes indeed, we all have a lot to be thankful for. Life, love, family, safety, health, friendships, creativity... Wishing you all a healthy, safe, creative year ahead.. Honi
Karen M, your 4-inch pages arrived safely. Just wanted to let you know. Honi
Hi, just wanted to let everyone I have received swaps from recently and who do not live in the UK that I am not ignoring them but I cannot send any post abroad right now due to Royal Mail having had a cyber attack. At the moment I don't know when I will be able to send any.
Hi Jo, I'm sorry to hear that your postal system is compromised. Other bad news is that USA and CANADA are not currently sending mail to Belarus. Thinking of our art pals in dangerous situations at this time... Honi
Hi Honi - Hope you are well!! I saw your above message re Iryna B.
Just thought I would let you know that I received a mailing from her (last week) it was from July 2022. (Took a long time)
I unfortunately cannot reply to her - our postal system here in South Africa is all but non-existent at the moment. I have not partaken in any mailings on any sites for a long while now. I do miss sending and receiving happy mail -but have taken up other hobbies as a replacement - LOL.
Hope you are well, and hope to hear from Iryna soon.
Lots of love
Dee
Dear Dee, SO good to hear from you. I was thinking about you recently and missing our correspondence, your envelopes were AMAZING!!!. Wish it were possible to resume... UK is having postal challenges from outside influences, so I was told. And an art pal told me USA and Canada are not sending mail to Belarus, where another mail art pal lives. The things we take for granted until they are gone... Stay safe and well my friend. Honi
Hi I did you receive my 4 pages? I was waiting to see the photos. Cynthia
llo wonderful, talented, congenial, friendly mail art swap participants, I have several concerns that I need to mention: I'm seeing an increase in cardboard being used as a base for our art post cards, which requires additional postage to be included/affixed, and, I'm receiving more art-mail art in long white biz envelopes which are very thin and weak. One I received today practically disintegrated in my hands as I opened it up. If you do use older, thinner biz envelopes, please place a tab of Scotch tape on EDGES all four sides. (Or wrap the four corners with a piece of Scotch tape.) It would be unfortunate to have your marvelous, one-of-a-kind art get lost on the dirty floor of some automated mail sorting facility.

ATTENTION: Hello wonderful swappers, I noticed that there was a post here including some participants' first-and-last names, and I neglected to block it. Yes, most people do include whole names on the Wanna Trade page and Informal Exchange list, but- it may be better to use initials for the last name (especial if there are two or three "Esmeralda's" in the group, for example). I want everyone to have a safe, comfortable, uplifting and enjoyable experience in this group. Thank you to the person who reminded me of this :) Hugs, Honi
