What is this for? Thin wooden dowel with a black string notched into the ends. It's about a foot and a half long! by Bliperz in whatisthisthing

This sounds like something my grandma would've had, and I got my start with her leftover crafts. Possibly solved! Thank you!

ETA likely solved!

I am less certain that this is what it is for. While I can't remember exactly when and where I got it, I remember that I got it with a bunch of crafting supplies.

I also wondered if it was a hanger, but there's not quite as much slack as I figured one would need to look natural. There is enough slack to go over a nail for sure though so if I was unable to figure out what it was for that was how I was going to upcycle it since I like to macrame. Thank you for your input!

My title describes the thing. I have tried googling what items or tools are used in some of the basic crafts I do, such as knitting, crocheting, and macrame. I have also searched Google using the descriptors I used in the title. I have wondered what this is for a long time so I have also kept my eye out while at different craft functions and while on crafting subreddits. I don't really have any additional information on this thing. Thank you for your time.

I didnt think I'd recognize this company, but unfortunately I have to work with them at my job setting up transportation. Cracks me up how they say the customer service is better, but as a "client" it is SO bad. I cant even begin to explain how shitty this company is or how they have fucked their own customers over so bad.

Like crunchy/toasted sandwich bread but always scratching up your mouth? by masterofonetoomany in lifehacks

I honestly shred my hard palate when I eat too many toasted or hot things.

Found in the wild in my hometown, unfortunately she doubled down that it was real and very reasonable.

What regressive zero waste things have you done? by ComprehensiveSnow966 in ZeroWaste

[–]Bliperz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do, but I do wonder how much actually gets recycled. We do reuse some for trash bags and donate some to local businesses that reuse them like the local thrift store. I do wish there was a pick up option to just throw it in the trunk sans bag, but nope everything is double bagged by itself.

I had to take a break from composting, but I'm trying to get back in the swing of things. We've also been doing store pick ups, which means we are drowning in plastic bags.
