An Autumn in Bellingham

There are no new recycling pictures this week to share with you, so instead I’m sharing a picture I took.  This is the view I hope to have next year if I’m still living on campus. I took it last Saturday from a room on the ninth floor, it was a gorgeous day! Enjoy. -Brian

Mattress Skinning and Hanging

I would like to introduce you the art of mattress skinning and mattress hanging. If you would like a flyer I will put one together.

Here are 3 pictures of the tools I used for skinning (a serrated Diamond Steakknife and a pair of Clauss electrician scissors). I also included a picture of a naked mattress, a hung mattress, and a picture of an unknown recycler worker for Waste Management (does he look angry!!). My mattress frame was hung only with 2-headed scafford nails. No drywall screws, poles, lumber, scaffoold, or staples were used.

How do I use a naked mattress? For my Spring and Hanging Gardens of course. I am working on 2 flyers about the art of mattess skinning and mattress hanging.
