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.

Let's use first names and last initials in our comments, as some have requested.
Vewers: you may left click on images in the swap descriptions to view them in a larger format at the bottom of the page you are on. Honi
Just a note: home-crafted envelopes made with book pages or magazine pages usually hold up fine through the mail, but some light-weight magazine pages tear quite easily. GLUES used on some coated papers may not hold the
edges together. Recently a swapper's envelope fell apart in my hands, (The enclosed art seemed to all be there.) so I taped the right and left edges of the envelope closed to keep the swapper's art from continuing to slide out. Keep on making art :) Honi
Hello Wonderful Swappers, someone sent in art for the "LINE" swap and the
collaged pieces were coming off in my hands. The images were cut out
from glossy magazine paper and they didn't stay adhered to the cardstock
background. So, I gently scuffed the back of the magazine cut-out's with an emery board, then used Elmers white glue to adhere them to the background piece.
Just a note- glossy paper doesn't stick well to backgrounds without roughing up the back side (gently, of course). Now I'm drying the piece overnight under a weight.
Hello wonderful swap art participants, I am having difficulty linking the active swap descriptions to the OPEN SWAPS page on this site, sorry for the inconvenience. Working on it,,, Honi

Hello! I received a sweet p.c. from someone who had in the past lived in Ocoee, FL. And also lived in Sarasota and Tampa, FL. From the postmark on the card this person now lives in the state of Washington. It is marked Tacoma, WA and Olympia, WA, There is not a name signed, no email address, no return address given on the p.c. Plus this person asked if i would send a p.c. back!! I'd like to! Please send your name and address to me! I will send back for sure!!
THANK YOU for the positive encouragement and prayers - MUCH APPRECIATED.
I'm back but not quite caught up with processing the current mail art swaps. I appreciate everyone's patience and understanding. Keep making art :)
