I hope they do another round too, because I bought shirts to do something with,lol, but I had just started a new job this past week, and I still have my second job, and the kids had playdates cuz school vacation, and I just did not make it in time.

I also keep finding inspiration in the shirts that were submitted. And I've always wanted to tie dye something. I feel like it would be fun to try, now that my head is in the right space for it.

I don't have a shirt to cut up. Also do they take them from Canada?

jamiemclochlin.bsky.social•1 day ago

Possibly. After someone wins a shirt, the person who made it just mails it to the winner themself.

lexibear.bsky.social•1 day ago

I see. Is the idea to use a shirt you have, or can you buy a plain tee and make something?

jamiemclochlin.bsky.social•1 day ago

I think either one is okay. But they kept saying it should be a cotton shirt (probably because it takes dyes and inks better than other fabrics, but I don't know)

I wonder what the shirts they sell at Michaels are, they might be cotton.

Now I'm kicking myself for not even trying. I'd love a second chance at doing my part to help raise money for LA.

I guess I'm saying learn from my mistakes, kids. Do the things!

Yup. Same thing happened to me. The shirt will suck, I thought. There’s no point, I thought. 🙄 I’m so over my brain having thoughts about stuff.

We gotta start transforming those feelings of self-doubt into creative energy. Anything we make is something that didn't exist before. And that's always awesome.

True!! I need to remember this!!

I lost the ability to care what people think of things I make. Not sure how I got there, but I figured I'm not an artist so whatever I make is truly me trying my best. If I get no bids, it's fine. I tried. If there is another one, I'd encourage you to do it! I'll be happy to push you along. 🙂

jamiemclochlin.bsky.social•1 day ago

I saw the one you submitted. It looks really good and I think it already has a bid.

shandabear.bsky.social•1 day ago

It does? Oh wow! Thank you! Art is tough so simplicity is best course of action.
