Happy New Year!

Welcome to 2019!

Anyone else glad to say goodbye to 2018? The world seems to be a bit of a mess at the moment, with lots of change and upheaval on many levels and in many countries. 

Perhaps we will move towards a bit more peace on earth this year.

I'm going to post one of my favorite exchange envelopes I received last year, from Patty D. I can imagine her patiently and quietly making this wonderful creation, shutting out the chaos to draw this wonderful bird which is perfectly accompanied by the solar eclipse stamp from 2017.



I hope you all have a great year!

  2. Mail and mail art can be a way to escape... But I like to think that it is also a way to make the world a bit better, a letter (or a post) a time :)

    1. It definitely makes the world better for the recipient and the creator, a very good point. Plus, hopefully, anyone looking at your blog.

  3. Yes. 2018 was a bit... challenging... personally and politically. I tried to keep a balance by seeing the positive, it worked sometimes. All the best to you Phillip in the New Year, and to us all.

    1. A bit crazy all round, I think. And we're all still here in 2019, so that's good. Happy New Year to you , too, Carroll.
