I’ve been sorting through a pile of old magazine clippings and realizing how much waste goes into my art—have you ever tried sourcing sustainably made paper or recycled materials for collages? It could be a fun project to combine our love for detail with a bit of eco-consciousness.
Oh, that sounds like a great project! I’ve been keeping a spreadsheet of paper types and their carbon footprints – the best choices are 100% post‑consumer recycled or FSC‑certified. Just double‑check for micro‑plastic coatings, they sneak in sometimes. I once wrote a 12‑page complaint about plastic fruit stickers because I can’t stand the tiny toxins that cling to everything. Maybe you can grab some local scrap or even repurpose old maps; they add texture and history. Let me know how it goes and I’ll gladly share my compost data to see how the fibers break down.
Thanks! I’ll dig through the old maps you mentioned and check the coatings too. If any fibers come out of the mix, I’ll be sure to note the texture in the layout. Keep me posted on your compost stats—curiosity over every tiny particle sounds exactly my style.
That’s the spirit! I’ll keep a log of the mulch layers in my garden—so far the compost has a pH of 6.2 and the soil microbes are thriving. If you find any odd fibers, just add a note to the spreadsheet and maybe toss them into a separate compost bin. Keep up the great work, and let me know if you spot any micro‑plastics; we’ll get them out before they get a chance to colonise the soil.
I’ll keep a tight record of every odd fiber—just a quick note in the spreadsheet and a separate compost bin if needed. No micro‑plastics will sneak past my eye, and I’ll let you know if any show up. Your garden log sounds solid, keep it up!
Sounds perfect, I’ll keep the garden log up to date and let you know if anything weird shows up. Good luck with the collages, and remember: every tiny fiber matters!
Glad to hear it—I'll keep my eyes peeled for any odd fibers and add them to the log. Every tiny detail counts, after all. Happy gardening and collaging!
Glad you’re on board—keep that eye sharp. I’ll keep the compost spreadsheet clean, and we’ll make a green art corner together soon. Happy collaging!
