Friday ✎ Arts and Crafts
Jul. 28th, 2023 05:05 pmGreetings and happy Friday~! ✨ I'm
creepy_shetan, and we've reached the last day of my guest hosting week. I hope you've enjoyed it as much as I have. ^.^ Thank you to everyone who has been prompting, writing, reading, lurking, and brainstorming!
✎ Today's theme: arts and crafts. All prompts must involve something related to arts and/or crafts. Anything from child-sized paint handprints to life-sized oil painting portraits is fair game. Or any creative supplies, ranging from construction paper and glitter, to hot glue guns and sewing machines, to knitting needles and pottery kilns. Is it handmade? Is it made with a Cricut or a 3D printer? Is it a relaxing activity? Is it a heartfelt gift? Is it something collaborative? Today, let's consider all of these questions and more. ~_^
A few rules to keep in mind:
Please remember to use the proper format for prompts.
➔ ➔ ➔ Fandom [/ Crossover], Character [+ or / Relationship], Prompt
Again, please include the full names of the fandom(s) and character(s). This makes it easier to add prompts to the Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet and to find prompts through manual search.
(Author's choice prompts and original fills are also more than welcome! ❤)
Examples:
We use AO3 to keep track of filled prompts. If you fill a prompt and (cross-)post it to AO3, please add your story to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2023 collection. For more information, please go here.
A backup version of this community is available on Dreamwidth.
If the plot bunnies aren’t biting you today, feel free to check out our archive calendar. You can browse the main themed posts and Saturday free-for-all posts for prompts to fill (and fills to read). Or you can check the Sunday posts for requested prompts (and fills written that week). There's also LJ’s advanced search options -- however, it currently seems to only search entries, not comments.
While the above are available options, the simplest method might be to bookmark prompts that you like as you find them and return later when inspiration strikes. (There are no rules against multiple fills for the same prompt, by the way!)

A few rules to keep in mind:
✦ No more than five prompts in a row per day
✦ No more than three prompts in the same fandom per day
✦ If one or more of your prompts is filled today, then you may prompt again
✦ Use the full names of the fandom(s) and character(s) in your prompts
✦ For prompts, no spoilers until one month after the release date (use a spoiler tag to hide part or all of the text)
✦ For fills, warn for spoilers, and either leave blank space before the text or hide the text under a spoiler tag
✦ Include a warning in the subject line for any possible triggers
Please remember to use the proper format for prompts.

Examples:
For a single fandom:
✧ author's choice, any + any, making friendship bracelets for each other
✧ author's choice, any, saving [cereal boxes, paper towel rolls, milk cartons, etc] for a school project
✧ Good Omens (TV 'verse), any (+/ any), recycling broken pieces to make new art
For multiple fandoms / crossovers:
✧ D.N.Angel/Ouran HS Host Club, any +/ any, Ouran High School owns a beautiful and mysterious piece of Hikari artwork... until it gets stolen one night

Watercolors and stick figures
Faded masterpieces created by hands
That were small a long time ago

Art, art, truth in its beauty
Truth in its grotesque beauty
A tree, a sky, a vase of flowers,
An eternity of stars

I could reach out to touch a horse’s flank—The
dapple gray, I think, because he seems calm and the
closest to me.
But my fingers touch only paint. They
could prance off the wall, surely, cavort around me. I
could tangle my fingers in a mane, another and another,
my hands growing slick with sweat, grit in my mouth
from the dust stirred up by a hundred horses—
But the floor is tile beneath my shoes.
The horses cannot stamp off the wall, out
of pigment and into the world.

You save the things they make when their hands are small,
their first shaky handwriting, their handprints,
fill in the blank, connect the dots, color in the lines (or not).
