We have roughly ten live interview responses recorded. The internet really helps to bring a better census of Atlanta’s makeup, though. The end product will be a catalogue of answers and portraits. The portraits will make up a massive charm bracelet (depending on the amount of responses). Every answer will be personally logged and…

Envelope Atlanta received a lot of questions over the weekend. We appreciate all feedback because it helps the project to grow. We hope to provide a community network. One of the drawbacks of the anonymity is not being able to host workshops and projects in person. Groups of us do enjoy getting together to make…
Envelope Atlanta supplies have taken over the entire house. Lately, we’ve been working with embossing powders and homemade stamps. The powders come in small glasses filled with strong pigments.

I think it’d be an interesting project to attempt on a small scale (and possibly try melting as well). Small clay envelope pendants would be a great project…
Lettuce tomato and make art!
I wanted to make little packets of seeds for the Envelope Atlanta tent on Thursday. I called every paper place and craft store that I could think of looking for tiny (quarter-sized) envelopes. The phone calls were very strange. They do not sell very small envelopes. However, if you are in the market for miniature…
