the "melted uneven surface" makes it unique enough that it is not smooth below but eventually has a better grip on

It has been quite a busy week offline since last week and all I could juggle was between day job and returning home, scraping off the dirt for the containers and then spray them on.

I am really happy to say that my first junk2glamour 2024 edition has been sold to my first customre, my Worship Minister who wanted to bless his wife and my ministry (as he has termed) so that what I wanted to do will flourish well.

I was really touched by my chuch peer's kindness and they really are very supportive!

I hope one day I can in return be a blessing to them and others too!

But my first fruits 10% will save aside for the LORD for blessing future missions. Every time I hit MYR10 I will donate it into the church's mission's account, especially for those who are reaching out flood victim families.

Other than that, one of my most excited journey in this project is I got my iron on stickers! They are tedious because it requires extra work to "iron on", but it will be useful for fabric surfaces later as well, and that side-effect of the "melted" paint (due to heat) created a rough bottom and it won't slide off easily.

That's definitely a surplus idea!

Another thing is that while getting the first one sold at MYR8.88 as the Lunar New Year Auspicious Promotion (which is approximately 8 HIVE), I have also 2 additional orders to get it done. I have decided to learn how to make shorts at it and the full completed product can be seen in my YouTube Shorts

So far I have 64 views and 2 likes, I think for that channel that's a huge achievement!

Please feel free to check it out. I still have trouble making it a smooth transition; but it seems that actually it is very hard to do it in YouTube shorts, even though there is an alignment feature that is really cool. I am not sure about Instagram / TikTok. Do they have similar features?

In the mean time, I may not always be available as juggling completing this project while cleaning up my room and getting all the nice clothes for the thrift shop sale isn't a walk in the park. haha.

I do hope you will stay tuned and watch how this progresses, and I do covet your prayers to keep me focused, determined, and make this project a success!

I think I have around 20 containers to make, and from how my parents are consuming, I may have 50 containers for junk2glamour project.

So far I have 5 out of 6 ready made older containers that I have made and set aside, and I will be uploading them to the online shop for sale soon. I might keep the dark green one as the base paint is rare. It has a unique rough rustic surface.

In the mean time, I have 2 chrome-brown-rustic surface coloured by markers waiting for inspiration. What surface colour(s) should I be working on with this base colours?

Your suggestions are most welcomed!
