1/2 I need your feedback: I made some #talismans as #wearableArt: you can either frame them or wear them as a #brooch.
My idea: some #goodVibes #hope and #beauty for difficult times. Made by my real human hands, mainly with #silk rests from sarees (#recycling waste) and #slowStitching.
One place for #art said: Our clients are too conservative for it.

Can you imagine that people could like it or is my idea too crazy? (If it would be a "thing" I could sell online.)

Art is not always a grand plan. This piece was created purely as a test: I wanted to see what was possible with hand-made silk paper. And when I didn't feel like planning a new project for the animation at the cultural heritage centre, I simply embroidered moss onto it. People were crazy about the moss!
You don't have to be perfect, just start to experiment and play!

I ❤️ #Silk Vanilla Soy Milk.

When I first started buying it about a 8 years ago, it was $2.50/half-gallon.

When #DonnieDumbass put a #tariff on #Soybeans exported to #China in his 1st term, the price shot up to $3. That's where it stayed for the next 4 years under #Biden.

In the past 30 days, my soymilk has gone from $3 to $3.50 to $4.65. 😱

My grocery bill has exploded. I've cut my shopping in half... the first sign a #crash/#recession is coming. #DisasterPresidency

Finished this custom piece for a client today… travel #hoodie with deep side seam #pockets #silk #charmeuse lining the hood, a natural button closure and I decided I would rather make a #boundButtonhole than a machine one. I went vertical as gravity would help hold the piece closed and it suited the narrow double stitched folded back finish. #customClothing #ottawaSewist #designer #uncededAlgonquinTerritory #creativeAndPractical
