I have this little tin thing right here. I don't know I found it somewhere but it's something that I have had for quite a few years so I really like it. I have like my scraps of paper that I put in here, like the trash and then when I get glue on my fingers, because you know when your working with this glue, when your pressing down real hard you get it on your hands. So then I will just rub my hands together and get the glue off into the container. It's dried basically. So then when I am collaging again, I wont get the glue all over the objects here. So it's just a matter of keeping my hands as clean as possible so then the item that I am collaging looks really neat and clean and organized and it looks like it's professionally done for the most part. Here I just dabbed the brush in the water because I could see the glue was starting to dry and I think that the glue had been on the brush for probably about maybe a good ten minutes and it was alright but that is pretty much max. So not I dabbed the, I got the brush into the water to get the glue off which is nice so now I can start over again. Then I just blot the brush on the towel here to get the excess water off and when you push down on it really hard you can see the water coming off which is good because sometimes I have too much water on and then the water is, the glue wont, it will mix with the water and it wont be thick enough. Okay, and this is what I have so far. If you would like to see that. Let's see here is one on my, well I covered up the saying a little bit but I will come back in maybe and write on it. Talking about I love life. Here is a photograph of me. Here is the fabric cut out of the rose and here's some more fabric. Here's one of my scribble figures and here is the gold candy wrapper underneath which is really nice and like I said this one the life one is underneath too and then here is a little girl, one of my other figures. And I will probably put a little more on too, maybe some more white stuff so I can kind of color it in later with pens or pencils, because I will definitely color this in and probably color her hair and color the light in with gold pen or pencil.
