I guess I'm easily entertained. I feel like there's tons of shit on the internet. my latest thing is learning crafting techniques for making my own house decorations/art. there is an insane wealth of knowledge among everyone from MFAs to like crafty homemakers with cheap ways to stain, manipulate/shape, and transfer images to a variety of materials.
I'm currently eyes peeled for a transparent plastic globe I can tent with modge podge and food coloring to make my own pendant light fixture. but for now I'm painting a weird elephant I found at a shop for cheap, and then I'm gonna black wash it or maybe even dry brush it with metallics to make it look old and valuable.
DIY information is still everywhere but requires you to be interested to find it entertaining or valuable. I love just watching youtube craftsmen, whether something I personally partake in or otherwise. Sometimes its to help improve my various crafts, other times its like watching "How its Made".
