I made a patchwork dressing gown using 4 years of fabric scraps

As the title suggests, I’ve been saving up my fabric scraps for four years and I made the coziest dressing gown out of approx 1400 individual squares and rectangles!

Does anyone have suggestions for sorting and storing large amounts of buttons?

I collect buttons from thrift stores, garage sales, etc because you never know when you’re going to need a specific type, color, size, style etc of button and sometimes they are really cheap this way. I collect some other craft-related stuff this way as well (my fabric collection is getting to be too big for my space). So far I have been sorting them by color, or special type, into little jars, but it is quickly outgrowing those. Any suggestions for how to store these in an appealing way that lets me view them without too much trouble? I would probably ideally get an apothecary cabinet, but I don’t have the money for that right now.

Finding your niche

I have SO many hobbies (ADD thing I suppose) and I really cant place my finger on which one to indulge myself in to try to make money. How should I go about choosing??

Frankenbear

This piece is a combination between the tenderness of a teddy bear, the body parts of frankenstein a voodoo doll and different textures of human skin. Is so cute and creepy at the same time.

What to do with big cardboard tube

I just ran the garbage and recycling out at work and intercepted an employee from another store in the mall throwing out this sick ass tube. I'm a crafty person, but all I can think of is like cutting it into little pieces and making a honeycomb style organizer, which I might have done if I came across it sooner, but the only thing I would need something like that for off the top of my head is my markers and I'm already almost done with a different organizer for them that I've put a lot of time and effort into and really like. So I am open to other ideas! My younger two siblings do a lot of cosplay, so if anyone can think of something for that, I might be willing to part with it for one of them. When I measure from outer edge to outer edge, it's about four and a quarter inches, when I measure the inner edge, it's about three and seven eighths of an inch. It's only a few inches shorter than me, so I would say around five feet, give or take.
