Also, to all of us doing the postcard project, I finished mine! Woo hoo! Just need to mail them.

So what's new. POSTAGE increase in January. seen here This is


U.S. Postal Service Announces New Prices and Services for 2013


Highlights of the new single-piece First-Class Mail pricing, effective Jan. 27, 2013 include:
Letters (1oz.) — 1-cent increase to 46 cents
Letters additional ounces — unchanged at 20 cents
Letters to all international destinations (1oz.) — $1.10
Postcards — 1-cent increase to 33 cents
The Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) will review the prices before they become effective Jan. 27, 2013


Wondering if anyone has a new project in the wings?. If one is in the clouds, in the dreams and the near future?.

nycfem 11-03-2012 06:24 PM

I mailed my postcards today!

kittygrrl 11-03-2012 06:29 PM

Hi Everyone
 
Projects, postcards?!? This sounds like so much fun. I would love to join if that's possible?:hk2:

nycfem 11-03-2012 06:34 PM

Awesome! Wait for the next project to be posted and then sign up if interested :)

ahk 11-03-2012 06:47 PM

Any new ideas for new projects? I have a few more in mind... but just wanted to know if anyone else has any? Also... what kind of projects have you done as of lately or in the pass-- I know I could look at all previous pages but it'd just be easier if one could say-- Thank you.

Can't wait to see everyone's "world" -- I am almost done with mine, I will send them out this week.

nycfem 11-03-2012 07:01 PM

I think the next project is being wrangled by Laruss at the start of the New Year? Do I have that right, Laruss?

Gemme 11-03-2012 09:06 PM

Mine won't go out until Friday, Nov. 9th.

That is the plan, with the Christmas season being so hectic the New Year is my choice to start.

Unless... we want to do an ornament exchange? I am already making some so I could do extra.

Anyone interested in that? I could wrangle it I guess. I am moved now so I could although I do have my other project that I would like to do for the new year and I don't have time for it before then.

Any ideas, anyone else want to wrangle if we do ornaments?
Anyone want to do ornaments?

Gemme 11-03-2012 09:23 PM

I like the idea but I'll pass on the ornaments this time.

Tommi 11-03-2012 11:51 PM

New Project, New Year

laruss,

As for me, New year is best. Holiday season is filled with fun frolic, travel, and such.

Then, I would like to do the spring thing, next one after that.

ahk, we have done so many different kinds of things.
As for what we have done over the past three years, the best way to see get an idea of what, and how it all works would be to start at page one and speed read through the projects.

deb0670 11-03-2012 11:53 PM

I got my first postcard thingie today from Laruss!! thanks! awesome pics!!! (waiting til payday to get my stuff)

princesskathie 11-06-2012 04:09 PM

Ooh I can't wait to participate! I'm working on Christmas cards & gifts right now, but I'm game for anything come January!

Yay!

Ditto! Beautiful, laruss. Just lovely!

SingularNYCFemme 11-06-2012 11:28 PM

I am so sorry, but I won't be able to fulfill my part of the postcards project. Too much displacement and weirdness going on in my life right now. One of these days I'll get it together. I feel as though I'm letting myself and others down, but I just have no choice. :(

ahk 11-07-2012 02:26 PM

No worries-- I'll still send you a card. I hope that things ease up for you soon--

Best,

nycfem 11-07-2012 03:08 PM

Why don't you wait and do it within the next few months? Since this project doesn't involve only one person mailing, you can individually send out your postcards when things ease up for you (f)

Thank you so much; that's an idea. Once I have the things ready, I could get the addresses and send them, even though late? Who would have thought? Wow. Thanks again!

nycfem 11-08-2012 06:05 AM

Did you get the email from ahk with a list of all our addresses? That makes it extra user friendly :)

I sent the email out Thursday, Oct 25 -- just FWD you the email again-- just in case. Also, my zip is missing a number -- 87121. Send whenever you can.

amiyesiam 11-09-2012 02:51 PM

Our postcards went out today.

ahk 11-11-2012 10:14 PM

I will be sending out items this week--

I have received 2 so far-- Thank you.

nycfem 11-13-2012 07:44 PM

I received Ami and Corkey's postcards same day :). Loved them! BB did too. Thanks, you two!

deb0670 11-14-2012 06:18 AM

Payday! Now can get busy on these projects! Sorry for the delay!

ahk 11-17-2012 07:10 PM

I make the worst sender-outer especially now that school is back in session-- I totally forgot to send my stuff out this last week. I'm soooooo sorry -- they will be in mail by Tuesday.

This is my last semester of school -- and I'm only 2 weeks in and have done about 56 hours of clinicals, read 18 chapters, taken 8 tests -- Soon, I will be able to do more art and do other things I enjoy besides school stuff.

Hope everyone is doing okay--

nycfem 11-23-2012 06:11 PM

Bumping this to check in for those who haven't mailed theirs out yet.

small post card exchange

Theme: Your World. You take a photograph of "your world" (could be your living room, your work space, your car, your family -- anything that you feel is part of you) and send it to each one who ever is joining.

The last one I did, I took several different pics, wrote on the back of what I was taking a pic of, and who I was, and sent them out randomly. If you use a reg size photo (4x6) all you would need is a postcard stamp --- (.32).

lets do it!!


1. ahk
2. Corkey
3. Jennifer / nycfembbw
4. Amiyesiam
5. laruss
6. Gemme
7.SingularNYCFemme
8. deb0670


laruss 11-23-2012 06:15 PM

Mine were sent and I think were all received by everyone, at least I hope so.
I have not been to my mail box in the last 2 weeks, but I am going tomorrow, so I don't know whose I have received yet.

ahk 11-23-2012 07:15 PM

I sent mine out -- Wednesday.

I have received 4 so far--

nycfem 11-23-2012 07:43 PM

Yes, I think the four received so far are mine, Laruss, Corkey, and Ami.

With yours (ahk) on the way and awaiting Gemme, Singular, and Deb- do I have that right?

ahk 11-23-2012 08:04 PM

Sounds about right-- still waiting on the ones you stated.

Jennifer: Did you send 1 to yourself, like I did-- since my name was on the list and all, I figured what the heck. But instead, I postmarked it to my honey. She'll be thrilled!

Thank you to everyone so far who has participated, it has been awesome to see a small wonder in your lives.

nycfem 11-23-2012 08:12 PM

That's sweet that you sent one to to your home postmarked to your honey. I did not but I like the idea :)

And, yeah, the project has been very fun!

laruss 11-25-2012 07:20 PM

Received
 
I got Corkey's, great photo, it looks just like a real postcard you would buy.

and Amiyesiam's, that is the type of photo I would hang in my home.

and nycfembbw's, I think that is so cool that you got a reply from someone else in regards to what you had sent. That is really neat how we inspire other people without realizing it.

nycfem 11-27-2012 06:36 PM

I got ahk's postcard today and the colors were really splashy and I wanna visit and sit having drinks at the table with the Coke umbrella ! :)

nycfem 11-27-2012 06:38 PM

Awaiting Deb, Gemme, and Singular's postcards :)
All in due time- I know the holidays are crazy!

Corkey 11-27-2012 06:41 PM

We have ahk's, Jenn's, and laruss.
