Me to you
I was planning a trip, and mindlessly scanning google maps satellite view. Inspired, I captured satellite images of the entire path from my house to my friends, and printed it out on a strip of paper 1″ wide by 36″ long. I rolled up the strip, put it in a tube, and mailed to my…

Chandelier V2
I made another chandelier, because I’m obsessed. This one is far less interesting looking at night, but much better looking during the day or when it is turned on. But, still very unsatisfied, and I might make a third. I stuffed colored tissue paper in some of the tubes as a test, which looked great!…

Urban camouflage
I have stumbled on the ultimate urban camouflage. I found a UPS hat, then bought the pants and shirt to match. When I slip this on I can walk unimpeded into any building, any event, anytime. It is pretty crazy how invisible you become. In a questionable parenting move (which is all my parenting moves),…

You left your hat at my house…

Shoe box / Shoe saw
After a wilderness trip, I realized I had my friends boots and saw. So I made a wooden box containing his boots and mailed it to him. Then I mailed him his saw. I never heard back from him, which is disappointing because my friend casts metal. I was kind of hoping he’d send me…

Cat sitting prank

BIG ZIP
I took another sewing class (yo Butcher’s Sew Shop!). We were making bags, and I’d recently found a simply ENORMOUS zipper. It is meant to be used for boat covers, but I don’t have a boat. My most excellent instructor stifled her laughter and helped me squeeze this monstrosity into a normal non-boat-sized bag. I’d…

POSTAL BOX OBSESSION
I have become obsessed with mailboxes, the blue collection boxes scattered across the US. According to the UPSP, there are 140,875 installed, but that seems ludicrously low? But, you can find one on a map, and you should! I did a little project, and ended up with about 100 postcards of mailboxes, located near my…

Chandelier (version 1)
The first of several iterations on a chandelier. Promising, but not quite there yet!
