Making Art & Textured Canvases with DIY Gesso 🎨☁️ This was so fun you should try it (Patreon)

hello hi and good morning/afternoon/evening ⭐️
Have any of you guys tried to make gesso? You basically mix white school glue, baking soda or baby powder, and white acrylic paint and it turns into this fluffy paste that dries textured on a canvas. You can either leave it white or paint over it and the texture is so pretty and eye catching when the light and shadow hits it.
Also, lately, I've been eating this snack so much: yogurt, one crumbled cookie, some pitted cherries, strawberries or just whatever fruit you want and peanut butter (a lot of it). It's delicious 😂 a little heavy but nothing new coming from a butter, olive oil and peanut butter fiend like myself.
Aaaaand I was talking to my friend the other day who really likes cracked black pepper (😂) and I mentioned that it's so, so good on popcorn. So you pop some popcorn but if you buy the microwavable bags, get them without any butter, just plain. Or even better if you can do it on the stovetop with regular kernels or if you have a popcorn maker...and THEN, you can obviously drizzle melted regular butter on top ORRR extra virgin olive oil, salt and fresh cracked black pepper. It's just so, so good.
Maybe I can film these snacks, actually!
It's HAWT now and I am having difficulty imagining what august will be like at this point. Also - one thing I want to mention that I am very proud of is that I fixed my dishwasher door. it's one of those built-in dishwashers, where there's a surface panel/sliding second door thing, you know what I mean..and a few parts broke off and the door fell and wouldn't hook back on, so I had to order these 3d printed parts off amazon, because they were from a super old ikea dishwasher model 😂 and I DID IT. I couldn't believe it. Now I want to go on a mini fixing binge around the apartment.
I hope you guys had a wonderful weekend and are taking care of yourselves!
