getting ready for tomorrow!
Very excited about this project and being amongst a collective group of creative people expressing themselves through different mediums. My primary interest is disability culture and community so it is most likely that a lot of the things I make will be activisty and related to that.
Somethings I have been planning to make for a long time:
- Buttons, buttons, and more buttons
- Portfolio folder for poetry and writing
- Wallet that is collaged [cut and glue pictures]
- New Blog layout?
- Pie : )
- Tshirts, either stenciled, reconstructed [creating new design from old tshirt], or digitally designed
still thinking…
oh, if you’re looking for inspiration, check out brokenbeautifulpress, particularly this page.

Hey, nice to see more crip creatives
My blogging is a lot less disability culture than yours (I have a “real life” blog that gets a lot more of that, but have to be careful of not boring my readers by being a broken record…). With my craft blog — the one I am using for this — I’m more exploring how crafting and creativity are used as therapy and as motivation for healing and moving forward as well as trying to alert the able bodied to the additional challenges we sicklies face (but gently so as not to overwhelm, I want the emphasis to be on discovery not lecturing).
I’ll keep an eye out for your work especially, I imagine this thing-a-day blog is going to be swamped any minute now
