Just a small update. =)

We’re looking into getting a P.O. Box and our own .com…not sure when, but it’ll happen and a new update will be up once everything is set up.

There’s a new envelope waiting to be posted…sitting on the desk right now. We’ll have it scanned and posted shortly.

Envelope Returned!

Okay, so the timing with this one was pretty off. I got home after the presentation and behold, one of the envelopes was in the mailbox. It looks pretty sweet, so I will be posting the envelope sometime tomorrow. =)

But a nice little update for you to absorb: the project is continuing! We want to continue circulating envelope graffiti through the mail system…it will give the post people something to awe at for a bit before sending it off, and I’m pretty sure it brings some nice smiles to some faces.(I say We like this is a company, when it’s really an I…but…I’ll say We because it’s not just myself contributing to this, but it’s every person who gets an envelope and participates in this er…movement I guess we should call it) I’m going to invest in a P.O. Box sometime soon, and call this “Envelope Graffiti”…or maybe Snail Mail Graffiti…or…”The Snail Mail Project”….but that makes it sound like something bad…I’ll stick with Envelope Graffiti…so…anyhoo…working on getting a P.O. Box, and then maybe a domain name! =) Gotta make a name for ourselves…Sure…we want to promote snail mail..but since everyone looks to the internet for a source of information…gotta get the word around somehow, amirite?

Presentation

The presentation was done today. There was a total of 15 envelopes presented to a college class at ETSU…unfortunately…the project didn’t shoot off as I had originally had hoped because it was rushed through the course of this weekend and done digitally.

Mail envelopes have yet to be seen or heard of…BUT…well..there actually was a blank envelope received with the mailing labels in them….but no art envelope…so it may be hopeful to get at least one sometime this week, but we’ll see.

This project IS CONTINUING. Instead…we will pick random addresses and send envelopes. After the critique, there were many suggestions made on how to better this project. So…Envelope Graffiti will continue!

=) Smile!

Also…I would like to note, I’m surprised in the Blog Stats that there has been a total of 51 views today…pretty awesome.
