Mail Art

I have a new hobby and it is called--mail art. You might ask yourself, what is mail art? Let me share my definition with you.  Mail art is taking what you have(recycle paper items, ect..) and create a letter and envelope with art. I have saved everything from magazines, Starbucks coffee holders, old stamps and I went to city hall and got everything on Greenville I could take!! The sweet man working that day just looked at me and laughed after I asked for a bag. I told him I was sending art mail to several countries and was sharing my city with new friends--he smiled and seem happy. :)

I have received letters from Australia, Hawaii, Japan, Ohio and Alabama and have shared a lot about Greenville to people I have sent mail art to. I have learned a lot about the area where my letters have come from and have made friends I hope will visit Greenville in the near future. We have a blog where we post out letters and share with other members all we can about mail art. I am very happy to be part of this group and I am learning so much.

Computers are a good thing, but I think it's sad to see the art of  letter writing becoming a thing of the past. I love receiving a nice hand written letter in my post box more than receiving an e-mail.

(More letters will be posted in the future)

Have the week of your choice!

Best
Tracy :)
