Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Before the heatwave hit, I made a bunch of really cool looking wycinanki (symmetrical paper cut out) flowers and then mixed a bunch of pigments up to paint each layer as I only had white card and none of my existing hundred or so tubes of paint were the right colour.

I came up with an interesting method too of using masking tape to cover and basically square off the back of each flower shape, so I could paint the other side without them sticking to my desk. I still need to run a scalpel around the edges to clean up some excess paint that didn't come off with the tape though, but that can wait till I've recovered from my flat being 45c yesterday.
