Lost and NOT Found!


[Bev]

It has been well over two weeks and it seems like both of our teeny tiny postal experiments have been lost in the postal service, or in the bottom of the postman's bag, forever!

So we don't recommend sending these tiny letters through the post by themselves, make sure you put them inside a larger envelope. We are very happy that these itty bitty letters are enjoyed by many, and we thank everyone who has bought one! There shall be more at the next event, and remember, we can personalise them too!

It was an exciting experiment to do and it's a shame it failed... (and I really put my hopes up to find it in my postbox...)

Itty Bitty Locker Exhibition...

Sophie and I (Bev) are going to carry out our own little locker exhibition at in our course studio at Leeds College of Art! There are a few unused lockers, but so far we have started to coat the insides of two of them with white paint.



As you can see, the lockers are tall, deep and quite dark. We may need to install some lights inside to illuminate it! At the moment we are planning to exhibit our own work inside - ranging from two-dimensional and three-dimensional artworks. We are also considering in exhibiting artwork outside Itty Bitty Art Committee, which has to follow a specific theme that we set (generally small art), but we are still discussing about it!

Our aim is to get this locker project up and running after the Easter holidays, so we hope everyone has an enjoyable Easter!

Itty Bitty Postal Experiment!

We have decided to experiment if the itty bitty letters can survive through the postal system! Sophie has sent one to me and I (Bev) have sent one to her address. We have used a second class stamp for both letters, so it could take about three to five days to get delivered!

Sophie has written one to me!

..and I have written one to Sophie!


The letters are so small that the stamp covers half the letter (as you can see)! We just hope that the postman has good eyesight to read the tiny address! However we did put the post code and number of the address the largest in the text which is the most important details.




Goodbye teeny tiny letters!

We just hope that they are not left forgotten in the bottom of the postal sack because they are so small! We'll update the blog if they have survived!

We look forward to seeing our experiments in our post boxes soon!
