    everyone loves mail

    Looking through my old mail yesterday made me nostalgic for my old days of sending and receiving mail art, and so this morning I trotted over to Geoff Huth's mail art journal / blog qbdp, which only made everything worse.

    And so that's led me to ask whether there's anyone out there who wants to swap Project 29 envelopes with me?

    Project 29 is from Jeffrey Yamaguchi's 52 Projects, and its instructions read as follows:

    "Get a regular sized envelope. [I'll be using a a 6x9 padded envelope. -J.] Address it to someone special. Then, stuff it with as many things as you can: a letter, photographs, ripped out magazine articles, photocopies of poems, a short story, or passages from a novel, recipes, clipped newspaper articles, art work, poems or stories you've written... anything that can be folded up and put in the envelope. Make sure to stuff it so full that you need to use tape to keep it sealed. This envelope should have serious heft. Once it's sealed, get the proper postage put on it (definitely use stamps) and mail it off."


    I'd say I can accomodate the first three non-Chicagoans to respond to this post.
