Mail Art from September 2018: Another Deco made its way to me, this time from Toni Hanner. The "Asian Influence Deco" was started by fellow IUOMA-ning member, Carolyn Cline (Colorado Springs, CO).  Carolyn Cline's "Asian Influence Deco," forwarded from Toni Hanner. Here is the page I did for the Deco:  "Asian Influence Deco" collage page by me (Jayne B. Lyons).

Mail Art from August 2018: A "Free Style Deco" from Florine Stettheim.  "Free Style Deco" front cover and verso. Finished book will go to Ireland. My contribution to the Deco:  "...quick with a joke or to light up your smoke..." My contribution to the "Free Style Deco." Mail from November 2018: Amy Candiotti is a fellow member of the Decos group at IUOMA-ning. I received mail from her in late 2018 which included the "What Makes You Happy Deco" (started by Bonniediva).  Upon completing my page, the Deco was forwarded to another member of the group. The map envelope is handmade from an atlas page. I love the vintage image of the beret-wearing gal!
Many thanks to Amy! Read my post on Decos here.  Last June I joined the newly formed Decos - Do you miss them? group on IUOMA-ning. Bonniediva, a fellow Networker and talented mail artist, created the group. I had never heard of Decos, but the concept seemed interesting. I've since participated in a bunch of them.
So what is a Deco? In snail mail circles, friendship books are a popular way to learn about people, and a terrific way to get new penpals. They are usually very basic, not-so-fancy books. |
