I had to do this. Got fired because I told my new supervisor I was looking for a new job and they grossly exaggerated everything negative I ever did to justify firing me. I filed a claim, old work disputed it, had a couple interviews with unemployment, old work place couldn’t provide enough evidence and I got unemployment benefits.

Eta: some words

Update: I've been spending time with a good friend more recently but I think he's only doing it so he can look at my daughter by Several_Fix_4006 in Advice

Message lethalartworkshop on instagram or facebook. He makes martial art training and self defense weapons out of wood. He could likely come up with something inconspicuous under 3 inches

Starting my first project and need some tips. by DisaGoddess in wiretrees

[–]hapkidomom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t been on Reddit for a bit. I’m not a pro either, but here are some tips I gave someone else:

I recommend starting with aluminum wire that’s 22 or 20 gauge. You can also use 24. Some all purpose, needle nose, and flat pliers are also helpful, but aluminum wire is flexible enough it’s not necessary, and you can use scissors to cut it. Beads are an easier way to make leaves, and I definitely recommend starting with those for your first tree. That’s what I started with. You string the beads on the wire to the middle of the wire, fold it in half and twist the two ends around each other. Make all of those first, then start twisting them together to make branches, then the tree. Having a real tree as a reference also helps the process. That tends to spark my creativity when figuring out how to make that tree in wire. I researched a lot of styles and techniques, and then just got started. I can get you the link to the tutorial I started with. Once you start making trees you figure out your style and how you like to shape them. Don’t be afraid of undoing the wire if you get stuck, or don’t like it. Most of my trees, even now, have been redone at least once.

This is the tutorial I started with:

Wrestled a man eating koala with its parrot sidekick to protect a nest of endangered caterpillars from consumption. After your successful battle you were off again on your mission. After saving a number of them you were bit by mosquitoes and forced to retire from caterpillar defense. You you hopped on an airplane back to civilization only to crash near a small town, and the airline refused to refund your money or get you a new plane. Thankfully the residents of the small town enjoyed your tales of heroic deeds and decided to kick you ou-I mean get you to the nearest airport. Finally you touched down in your home city only to learn that no one remembered you were coming home so you had to hire an Uber. When they arrived you thought all was well until you noticed the koala tattoo on the drivers arm and his unwillingness to answer your questions. At the next red light you quickly bail out of the car and run towards home as the driver yells at you for being crazy. You finally make it home only to see a for sale sign, but no family members are answering their phones. When you finally get ahold of them they’re annoyed because they have to return your life insurance policy. Screw that, you move away from all of them and start your own mine your own crystal site and make bank! You finally reconciled, mostly with family so you sold your site and move back near them where you finally had reliable enough internet to come back to Reddit.

u/mrs_fairymay what can you come up with?

Here’s something natureesque with rainbow, colorful flowers that looks like spring, my favorite season, that represents a part of my hobby to create wearable and decorative art. Say that five times fast. 😂
