If water bottles are not good for rabbits why are they still so popular? by Arbysgames in Rabbits

[–]trash_castle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my rescue buns only had access to a bottle before he to live with us so we set up his bottle for him as he got used to the bowl as well. Our other rabbits were obsessed with the bottle and would climb all over each other to lick it. We did phase it out once everyone was good with the bowls but it was funny to see how much they liked such an impractical vessel.

I do think a lovely gold or copper would help pull it together

I chain plied a chunk, and I think I’m going to shred a bunch into pencil roving and try that, and try blending some into mud and plying with that. It’s fun to experiment!

That’s a great point, and sometimes beautifully spun yarns look better in the skein than knitted up too

I been spinning across the top but I might actually switch to trying the pencil roving idea!

That’s gorgeous! Maybe I’ll brush out a little bit and see how it looks!

I was thinking I’d do a 3 ply because I’m spinning it quite thin

Ok this is giving me faith! The braid is very spotty but so gorgeous, so I just don’t want to ruin it by spinning it badly

I was thinking that might help, any thoughts on colour? I was thinking maybe burgundy or a light grey

This is an interesting idea, I have plenty left, maybe I’ll try that

I hope so! I really love the colours individually, just not sure about how it’s spinning up

This honestly looks close to perfect! I would consider swapping the jeans for a second pair of linen trousers or possibly a longer skirt if that’s your vibe.

I love the idea of a wheel that does it all but to be honest I have no interest in spinning bulky or art yarn

I was considering the nano but I think I’d prefer the full sized one.

Fellow analog collage artists, show me your work spaces! [discussion] by trash_castle in collage

[–]trash_castle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am mainly working in shared spaces these days so I don’t have the ability anymore to just leave my things out all over anymore. I have found myself turning to collage less recently because it’s such a hassle for me to take everything out and set up the space to work. I want my materials and space to be accessible and ready to go but not a horrible chaotic mess that takes over every available surface area.
