What is a mail art envie you ask? Anything you want it to be really! If you google "mail art envelope" you will get a bunch of inspiration! I like to look up "mail art envelope" on Instagram...there are so many beautiful images and IGTV videos! @PaperPilea on IG is one of my FAVORITE mail art creators because I really like her aesthetic. Check out @penfriend official IG for LOADS of other styles, as they post a huge mix of mail art! Just make something fun to look at, and appealing to your eyes! Collage, paint, stamp, get creative! Rules: Make 3 mail art envelopes. Can be different styles, or all the same. You can use premade envelopes and artify the outside, or make your own. Mail 1 of those envelopes to 3 different people! Fill the envelope with a card, or something to say HI, and who you are, and what swap this is. Feel free to get creative! Feel free to get a head start and make your envelopes now, but if you want to wait and get a look at profiles, you can do that too. They don't need to be profile specific though. That's it! Not necessary, but fun: I like to cover my envelopes in recycled plastic, and I put the address and postage on the plastic. Then the envelope can be reused for any purpose the recipient wants! I also like to use postage stamps instead of buying postage at the PO because it's so much more colorful. I will angel after a "1" is left, but I don't think I will need to as this group is full of AWESOME SWAPPERS!!! |
