@MexicanYenta Oooh, #upcycling ! What sort of upcycling? I love creative reuse stores, making things out of weird components, and turning my cardboard recycling into diecuts.
@booksherpa I've done some jewelry, and I like upcycled furniture. Thinking I may try to do some to sell, in the future. Meantime, I've become addicted to that Flea Market Flip show. Even though a lot of the stuff they do is fugly. 😆
@MexicanYenta ooh, you make soap? I used to do that, need to get back in the habit
@Felixthefemale I was selling it for a while, and may start up again. I also got sidetracked (SQUIRREL!) into lotions, bath bombs, etc. Now I'm spoiled and can't used drugstore stuff.
@MexicanYenta I got into making face creams and even a good one for eczema and chapped skin. Still have the recipes, just need the energy... Also found every session was v drying on the skin because of all the cleaning before and after, and repeated hand washing!
@Felixthefemale I always say it's the cleanest mess, and the messiest clean.
@MexicanYenta oh gods the soap pot!
@MexicanYenta all I did was copy and paste the same thing a lot of other people did, but somehow this went kinda nuts overnight and people were crediting it to me. This is not original to me, and I don't know who originated it - I saw it several times yesterday.
@MexicanYenta I forgot music. I went to school for audio engineering and I'm obsessed with music, and I forgot, because today has been so sucky.
Poo.
