It’s been a long, long, long time since I’ve had a mailart haul to share. For the iHanna Mailart Swap I created little books like I’ve done in the past. I picture them as a collaborative project. I create the cover and the recipient gets to fill the inside pages as they like. I think it’s fun to send a book, it’s just a bit different than your average mailart postcard.
The books get sent out sealed up like the picture above. The covers have been coated with a varnish first, to hopefully keep them together through the mail.
Above are the fronts and backs of each book. I include a rubberband mailed inside the front cover to keep the book closed like pictured above. Below are all of the books opened flat without the mailing addresses, of course.
The flickr pool with other postcards from Hanna’s swap can be found here.
Those are awesome Robyn! Anyone would be thrilled to get any one of these awesome mail books!
