Description:

Do you eat a lot of fruits and veggies? What do you do with those little UPC labels that tell you where they come from? In my 20s, I stuck them all over my refrigerator and created a beautiful mosaic -- but my landlord wasn't too happy about it! Since then, I've been saving them on pieces of paper stuck to my fridge and I thought "wouldn't it be fun to make a postcard out of them?" Maybe you think so, too?

Make one standard or larger sized postcard featuring produce label stickers in some way - randomly stuck everywhere, designed into a mosaic, one in a corner used as the inspiration for a drawing, etc... (The bananas I buy have hula-hooping bananas on their labels!)

Send your postcard naked to your one partner, with a note on the back telling us something about the things you've eaten, why there are so many pink lady apples, etc...

Be silly, have fun, stay crafty!
