Anything with John Held Jr. in it is well worth watching.
Should be BEAUTIFUL!!!!! ❤
This was awesome to watch. I loved it!
I watch lots of TH-cam videos. A lot of them were craft or DIY related and more recently mixed media. I would see them get what they called happy mail. It was usually in a bubble mailer and was just some crafty gifts. I did a swap once on a crocheting site. It cost a little but was so much fun. But once I starting seeing all the happy mail of the mixed media artists, I was floored. I loved it because I could see a little gift and not spend much money. Then I saw a video where someone had a decorated envelope and a few small gifts inside and they called it mail art. I was just amazed. I loved it. I have only sent one piece so far but plan to send loads more.
I would love to send or swap mail art with anyone from the video. That would just be so awesoe!! Amazing movie!! Loved it so so much!!

I love this documentary! I've been making mail since I was 13 yrs old (many, many moons ago) Thank you to all this wonderful artist for sharing their mail art.
This is timeless. Great documentary.

Great Documentary and long overdue. Thank you for producing this video and showing how postal mail can be made more interesting. Global Penfriends has just added "Mail-Art Pals" as a type of contact members can search for.
Brautiful!
loved watching this. :) thank you.
So inspiring and talented people. I want to send mail to all my friends :)
This so cool! I didn't know this was a thing, it's just what I did. Wish I had taken pics of all the art mail I've made. :)
I've been waiting for the documentary to come out for a while so it was an absolute joy to finally watch it.
Now I feel the need to ask a really dorky question - which black pens do the people in this video tend to use?
Oh, good question! We'll ask and see!
Making Co Thank you!
BeingErin Amber says she uses jelly rolls and microns!
Dada is pop art and pop art is neo-dada
Is there a list of artists featured in this documentary?
sprinkling glitter inside letters and envelopes is just wrong!
Our producer/editor Seth would likely agree after it was all over his apartment last year!

Great, so see hear and see there some of my mail art partners. You can contribute per e-mail to my current (e) mail art project about "Corn" here: corn.crosses.net/
really don't like the bad music and over-use of the vocal fry and the word "like"
Hello! I'm trying to contact you by instagram.... is there any email I can use?
The music is horrible
This is timeless. Great documentary.
