POST IT NOTE!
postitnoteproject copy


Okay, this is slightly random, but everyone should join in and it will be awesomely cool!
Fellow Ljer, uttate, had an awesome idea. I don't know if anyone remembers, but whilst I was in Japan I did a 100 post-it-note project

You can see it here...

http://theartoffee.livejournal.com/6978.html?view=691266#t691266

If you read the bottom comments, you can see Uttate's idea for everyone to do a post it in their town and hopefully we can get them posted from all around the world...

So come on start designing your own post-it-note and then on the first of Feb stick it up and take a photo :)

I made a community too

http://community.livejournal.com/postproject/

so please join that!

I'll definitely be doing this! Awesome, I'll try to promote this as much as I can. And I loved that 100 post-it idea you did, I'm really looking into it now. :)

I'll tell you right now, you did very well. In fact, one of your answers is an addendum I have in one of MY answers.

I'll be joining the community and also will try to a project on my own; maybe it'll get my lazy derriere moving because it's less demanding than a heavy art project.
Thank you for the inspiration. Oh and also I've added you; I didn't want to be one of those anonymous people who just plonk people on their friends list. Cheers.

I initially saw your post where you did it in Japan, and I've wanted to do it since then, but never gotten around to do it..

Maybe this time!

I just hope I can come up with something to draw on the post its X3

This is a fantastic idea! I saw the idea somewhere else of writing on bathroom walls and stuff (encouraging type messages), but I don't feel comfortable with putting graffiti on walls even if the message is a nice one. This is a great alternative.

Like it's such a nice idea to leave your mark, but some people don't want that mark so permanently left :P

Well you can get 100 for about 1 dollar, so it's a pretty good deal :)
I drew up a few before I settled upon my chosen one, but I might do a few more yet :P
Goodluck!!

This is a great idea!! Is there a limit of how many post it's you can post? Because I'd be able to post one in Tijuana and another one in San Diego, so that would be two countries...

BTW, mind if I friend you? ^_^

Feebilicious! I'm really sorry but I started on this thing early! Only because I went and climbed the fourth highest mountain in Mexico. So I thought it was fitting that I should leave number #1 up there for you. And I totally put artoffee website on there because I couldn't remember where the community lived....I'll put some photos up on flikr tomorrow or something so you can paste them in whereever you want. And I apologise for the shitty picture - I kinda scribbled it in the van on the way there....

But yay! Go you and the post it project in Mexico!

Millions of love

ok some thing i want to make sure i get right
1. should i say to put a link to the website on the post it?
2. should they include city or just a country of where their from?
3. is it limited to just art or is writing ok to?
4. how many post it max/min would you say?
5. only yellow post it note? lol

just random questions to make sure i got it right

Hello :)
There really isn't any guidelines, but these are good questions to be cleared up, so thanks for asking!

1) If they want to put a link to the website they can, I think the good thing with that if someone finds it they know where to look if they want to find out more, or even if people put their email address on the back or something
but really up to the individual :)

2)City and country would be great, I'm going to make a little map so we can see where the post-its have been posted!
3)Writing is totally fine
4) No max no min :) The more the merrier!
5) Any colour is fine

Really though you can't go wrong

HAPPY POSTING!
