It has been… a very productive week for amirite foraging!
After cleaning them, time to sort!
The most common colors are orange, blue, red, and green, so im always on the lookout for yellow, teal, and pink. Im going to be prioritizing projects that showcase the more common colors before I even think about using bajablasticlase or fraisine.
Time to make it flat!
Now unmake the flat!
Free them.
Put them in place
Seal it in!
And then finally after an untold number of hours foraging for materials, making the amirite cabochons, arranging them, painting the tray, and putting layer after layer of very thin resin over the piece so that it lays flat and actually functions as a serving tray-
Its ready!
The plan for this is to be auctioned off at the local arts council fund raiser. I had a fun time figuring this project out.
an absolutely humungous update they just keep getting better
I think this needs an important addendum:
Not only did Billie Eilish donate $11.5M, she also called out a room full of billionaires, including Mark Zuckerberg, directly to their faces, saying “If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire? No hate, but, yeah, give your money away, shorties.”
The $11.5M she’s donating is about ¼ if her net worth. Imagine if a billionaire did that? If Mark Zuckerberg donated ¼ of his net worth, it would be about $55 BILLION… and he’s still have over $100 billion left.
And, yet, unsurprisingly, people are mad at Billie Eilish for what she said and not at the billionaires for hoarding all the money and resources
Some libraries can even get you hooked up with social workers and local aid programs. The important thing is investigating what YOUR library can do for YOU.
Mine loans out equipment like snowblowers, leaf blowers, ditch diggers, hand tools and various power tools.
