It's time to sign up for December Mail Art!

If this is your first time signing up for Mail Art, please visit the topic Farmgirl Mail Art to read our guidelines.

FOR DECEMBER, please leave a comment on this thread stating you'd like to join in. Sign-up is available through December 10. If your comment appears after you've posted it, that means you're on the roster.

Does the month of December even need a theme? Let's call the theme Merry and Bright and wish each other a joyous month. And as always, if the theme is not right for you, feel free to do your own thing.

I will send an email with your partner to you on December 12. Please send your Mail Art before December 31.

I'd like to encourage everyone to post a comment on the current month's thread when you receive your mail art. And if you can, a picture is nice. We all love seeing the inspiring art! And a quick thanks lets your partner know you received your mail art.

A couple more things to keep in mind:
1. Traditionally, Mail Art has been "secret"; part of the fun is receiving a surprise package from a surprise partner. I would encourage you not to tell your partner who you are until a reasonable amount of time has passed for them to receive your art.
2. Please be sure to include enough postage for your Mail Art to reach its destination :)

If you have any questions or concerns, please send me an email. I'm always delighted to help.

Happy Swapping and farmgirl hugs!


MaryJane's daughter,

I got these wonder bright potholders from Diana Nelson. She also sent a very nice scarf, which is attached to my coat at the moment.

Hi Marilyn! I just received your package! I love your little cube snowmen. I will be sure to put them up in my Christmas tree next year! She also made me some cute little cards, even embossing the envelops! Really nice! -^-^-

Don't despair my sweet partner. I have sent my package earlier last week so it should reach you soon (mail in Canada is slow this time of the year...)
Have a great new year! xxx

I'm behind on posting, on Friday I found a Merry and Bright package in my mailbox from Sara M. Thank you so much, I love your work. She made a beautiful card for me, a set of water color cards and gift tags too, a bonus rubber stamp that says Merry and Bright. There are not many gift tags in the photo, I used them immediately! I'm going to put one of the painted cards in a frame for next year :)


Thanks again Sara, your thoughtful mail art really brightened up my day!

To my partner, your envelope went out today from my snowy little post office!

Farmgirl Hugs,

Andrea Chavez, I received your December mail Art. I love the beautiful blue necklace and your water colored card with evergreen trees is beautiful too. The wilds of Idaho must be lovely. Thank you so much.

Merry Christmas to everyone, and a safe New Years to you all! My apologies, Dianna, AKA Suny58, for being too caught up by the holidays to post sooner! Your package has been safely with me for a week, and we enjoyed discovering each little gem inside! The little bird has such cute personality!

And the bird mobile is going to go glamping with me this summer!

The stick is intricately patterned with beaver tooth marks. We were all impressed by that! Dianna also sent me a beautiful selection of her own photography art greeting cards.

All that and a wine cork Christmas ornament! So many thanks!
But my favorite thing, I must admit, was your lovely letter, sharing about your country life. This really touched me! Thank you for that, Farmgirl Sister!
Meg Posted - Dec 27 2016 : 2:03:56 PM
So fun to include a postcard too! Love it! Hoping more are trickling in as the end of the month is just around the corner and it is so fun to see what you all have sent each other!

Gift arrived today. It is LOVELY, thank you so much GrannyTammy. I will be making use of the scarf in this weather and I plan to use the tea tonight for my solstice celebration!

I'll try to post a pic as soon as I find a camera that will work for me.
