Finished: earrings, two necklaces, war boy insignia, gift for the Western Mother at the Divine Sanctum. Not pictured, 20 hand painted caps and an ashtray. Got shade structure poles too. Not Finished: too much. #WastelandWeekend2018 #barter #WastelandWeekend #Wasteland #BarterBusket #Bartertown #DivineSanctumOfTheManyMothers #WesternMother #earrings #necklace #WarBoys #MadMax #FuryRoad (at Gilbert, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnhwzn7nL1c/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9fo09axugy9d

There is a multiverse where I would be in crunch time for Wasteland Weekend. This year was going to be hauling and utilizing new shade sheets. But, covid. Instead of for barter, I made these for Mimsy. It felt nice to cobble these beauties together. Life was easier when the apocalypse was just my vacation.

Wasteland Weekend approaches, so it's time to make some barterables and accents. Today, I made an antler set and a necklace for my tribemate, Mimsy. #WastelandWeekend #Wasteland #WastelandWeeekend2019 #WWX #barter #BarterBusket #Bartertown #HandmadeJewelry #Handmade #antlers #AntlerJewelry #necklace #earrings (at Gilbert, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0uJxZGJYcM/?igshid=4x5ja9sg7zp1

Wasteland 2019: 347 days. Pieced a dreamcatcher together; blessings, barters, and gifts recieved in the wastes. I get so homesick. #Wasteland #WastelandWeekend #DivineSanctumOfTheManyMothers #cimotA #BarterBusket #FindMimsy #dreamcatcher #blessings #barter #gifts (at Gilbert, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo2jvq8HxqY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12njxi2nd0x82

We met Richard and Ross at a Shell station in Barstow, California, in the wee hours before Wasteland. I had just pumped gas and got back into the car when Richard knocked on my window. You've never seen me jump like that, trust me, and AJ was still in the station. I was absolutely terrified. In the most presh British accent, he asked if they could follow us there. Later, they gifted us tea and biscuits, so, here I am, crying into my morning coffee, enjoying my new favorite biscuits (they're obviously cookies, but, whatever). #Wasteland #WastelandWeekend #WastelandWeekend2018 #gifts #biscuits #FindMimsy #Digestives #decompression #RusselSprouts #Ross #EnglishGentlemen #MorningCoffee #PregnantHormones #BarterBusket #WastelandCaravan (at Gilbert, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/BobkMGPHenw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3y6hzcwuzvn9

I recieved this beautiful handmade necklace from my Wasteland neighbor, Solstice, in the mail today. My photography does it no justice. #Blessed does no justice to my feelings about my Wasteland friends and community, and how it extends beyond the event. 15 Days. I highly recommend checking out her and her husband's shop: www.yeeclecticemporium.com or www.etsy.com/shop/yeeclecticemporium #YeEclecticEmporium #eclectic #HandmadeJewelry #Wastelanders #WastelandWeekend2017 #Amethyst #SnakeBones #Wasteland #Labradorite #BarterBusket #WastelandWeekend2018 (at Gilbert, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnm0KR0nghm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18wvoyo2q6z9w

I learned from Echø of the tribe Cimota, that negatives, slides, and other films, make fantastic trinkets. These are made from slides of The Holy Land slides by Sami Awwad for Hotel Mount Scopus in Jerusalem. I acquired them at Bookman's in Mesa, Arizona, years ago with a plan for them. #WastelandWeekend2018 #WastelandWeekend #BarterBusket #Trinkets #Baubles #barter #trade #Wastelander #Cimota #ArtsAndCrafts #locket (at Gilbert, Arizona)

Getting to post-WW chores, found this gem from cimotA. Cap for a gift, and now a regret for a missed opportunity. Thank you! #WastelandWeekend #Wasteland2017 #WW2017 #BarterBusket #cimotA #Wastelander (at Gilbert, Arizona)

A brief respite from the current world, in the middle of nowhere, where things make more sense. Special Thanks to @malibatina.#Detonation3 #EndOfDays #Wastelanders #BarterBusket #UraniumSprings #TheWreckRoom (at Uranium Springs)
