I am the sole caregiver for my best friend, who is dying and currently on hospice. Every month she has a plethora of plastic medical waste. I try to repurpose it for #FoundObjectArt here's some #StarWars fan art made from it.

Hashtags can be a powerful discoverability tool; they are searchable platform-wide AND just within a user's feed.

If you're thoughtful about what hashtags you use, latter can be SUPER handy in helping followers find categorized posts (or art!).

I wrote more about hashtags here.

#BlueSkyTip: You can browse hashtags within a particular user's Bluesky feed, via Search or by clicking on the hashtag. Try clicking on #FoundObjectArt to see an example.

Another reason to be judicious when choosing tags & NOT using "throw a bunch of hashtags on the wall & see what sticks" method.

A screenshot of a Bluesky post by Debbie Ridpath Ohi featuring found object art made from a pink flower petal and green plant parts shaped like a mouse.

Empty egg cartons always cry out to be cut up and Frankensteined. Gave in to my impulse today and came up with THIS!

After I took this short video, I tossed it into recycling.

I love ephemeral art.
