I made a craft!

I found a branch in the woods, sliced it in the bandsaw, put it in the oven to kill any bugs (sorry bugs), drilled some holes, and painted some postage theme pics on them before adding a ribbon 🦋🍊💛
Three round wood slice ornaments with ribbons. They each have a painting of a postage stamp. One is a monarch butterfly, one is a toco toucan, one is an orange on a branch.

Happy December 1 to all who celebrate.
A hanging placard on a coat rack against red scarves. The placard is hung by a festive red ribbon. It says Day to Christmas: 24, Merry Christmas. The message is just painted on, you can't erase, there's no velcro, etc. There is a small tag on the ribbon that says At Home Peppermint Jazz.

Screenshot of a direct message on Facebook Messenger. One person has sent to the viewer three messages spread out over a few days with no response. Each one says "new sinkhole pilgrimmage tonight queen??" with the eyes emoji. The "new sinkhole pilgrimmage" part is obviously edited in to replace the original content.

A ghoulish fogure in green rags with a few tufts of dark red hair and yellowish skin in a desert at night. This is King Ramses from Courage the Cowardly Dog, a character that haunts Courage's home for an episode. He would normally say Return the slab but text has been edited in to say Release the Epstein files.

Grucci
A Gucci handbag that has been photo edited. The bag is tan with a criss cross logo pattern, but some of the classic GG logos from Gucci have been covered with Flyers logos. The iconic green-red-green ribbon detail has been changed to black-orange-black. And there is a small Gritty stuffed keychain attached to the handle.

Two images side by side. They are each a frame of a popular Vine (short video) where a young man on a neighborhood street is talking on a cell phone and says "...so no head?" and then slams the phone to the ground and jumps on a skateboard leaning against a curb, breaking the skateboard in half. The image has been edited so it is Data from Star Trek's head on the young man. The text on the left has him on the cell phone saying "...so no Irish Unification in 2024?" The image on the right has him slamming the phone to the ground.

Put on a sweater without remembering that I'm going to an office holiday luncheon today... fixed it 💀🎅
A mirror selfie of me standing in the bathroom. I have on an orange and black sweater with a large skeleton on it. My phone is slightly obscuring the top of the sweater and my face. A mirror selfie of me standing in the bathroom. My phone is no longer obscuring my face and my sweater. My sweater is orange and black with a large skeleton but a small Santa hat has been pinned to the sweater so it's right above the skeleton's head.
