I claim @calluna show the love. I bought an old lidded cast iron pan in the salvage yard. I’m going to restore it and then use it to make the Aussie classic, damper, over a wood fire. It’s going to be a big task, so I’m giving myself a week.

My challenge is bees

We have a colony of wild native bees in the eaves of our house. They haven’t been seen yet this year and I’m hoping the survived the winter and will put in an appearance soon. Maybe people crafting bees will be the encouragement they need!

I claim METAL!

I’m going to attempt an assemblage piece, which will incorporate metal.
I should have it finished on Saturday (unless I have to order more E-6000). Maybe I’ll order some just in case! ETA: I just checked- I have a partial mini tube left, so I ordered some, but I won’t have it until Sunday. So, I’ll need an extra 2 days.

I claim thanate for non-seasonal holidays. Plan is to make a birthday gift (collage) for a family member.

It will take two days.

my challenge is FROM LOUSY TO WONDERFUL

35

I claim FROM LOUSY TO WONDERFUL from @GabeTheQuacker. Within the next 5 days I’ll bind the mixed media book I’ve been preparing, which is transforming lousy old photos of largely lousy memories into something new and, by comparison, wonderful. In the process, perhaps not entirely by chance, the stories and memories themselves are transforming into something better.
