    My driveway still has glitter from when I painted my hospital table… 9 years ago.

    It needs to be repainted due to heavy use, and I like the glitter (plus I still have a big container of it, and wasting plastic is worse than using it), but I’m not looking forward to purple herpes for another decade.

    I think I’ll suspend it in swirls in resin this time to be permanent, and keep more depth than the spray epoxy layer I used last time. Then I won’t have to do this again.

    (I wouldn’t buy non-biodegradable glitter anymore, this stuff has been around for most of my life… I got it in the early 2000s when I was in HS for some project or other, and I do my absolute best to contain it when I use it, but it’s glitter.)
