How Sherri Olson organizes her postcards
From PPF participant Sherri Olson:
Nan’s cute binder made me think I should share my solution. Years ago at a library conference, an artist, who worked as a bookbinder while in art school, showed us how to make these recycled material journals. All you need is clean cardboard and paper, glue and a little length of duct tape.
These little books made it easier to stay organized during PopoFest, plus it’s more inviting to go back and revisit the poems later on. The Wheat Thins book has my cards from 2023, my original year participating, hence the spine.Anyhow, I treasured all the thoughtful and sublime cards again this year! I’ll miss it when it’s over.
How do you make them??
Yes – I’d love a little tutorial or step-by-step instruction! Maybe an impromptu zoom?
Sherri: I second those asking for a few more instructions or a step/by-step for your Wheat Thins postcard holder. It looks just right!
Thank you!
Happy to make a video or print step by step (when I’m done with this week’s homework), but how can we connect? I’m not really on socials~
I looked at my group lists—6 in ‘23 and 9 and ‘24:)—and didn’t see addresses for any of you.
