But first, you need to tell me your E-Mail-addresses so that I can permit you to work on the document.
Our goal
once again(just as a reminder): Creating a blog which helps people to create unusual things to
emphasize individuality by using simple methods which are agreeable with
environmental sustainability
And now a
first try on the Introduction Article:
Every day,
people throw things away.
Dear
Self-Makers,
Old to Gold
is a project blog designed to encourage YOU to THINK before you throw your
“TRASH” away. Ask yourselves: “Is this REALLY rubbish?” Maybe you can REUSE it!
Many things have MORE potential in them than their original purpose. People
tend to regard broken stuff as trash and put it STRAIGHT into the bin instead
of having a CLOSER look to find out if a part of it can be used for example as
arts and craft materials.
Our blog
does not only INFORM you about how much is WASTED, it also gives you examples
what you can DO with OLD things so that they seem GOLDEN again. We hope that
you can gather some NEW ideas and will gladly support you in your CREATING.
By doing
this, you will be able to emphasise your INDIVIDUALITY: You will present
yourselves clad in new accessoires which nobody else can copy.
Your OLD
“trash” will sparkle in GOLD!
Now YOU
try!
Yours,
the
Creative Minds
"which nobody can copy"? are we not trying to make many people copy our ideas?
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, you're right. I was thinking of the concept of "nachkaufen" like with H&M-clothes. I absolutely missed to consider your interpretation.
DeleteDoes anyone have an idea how to express "nachkaufen" in Englisch?
I can't think of a word... but maybe we could just formulate it differently
DeleteBy doing this, you will be able to emphasise your INDIVIDUALITY by presenting yourselves clad in new, self-made accesoires and also by giving unique gifts to your beloved ones.
Maybe like this? Unfortunately I can't access the link for the document...
I think the article is really good, just a few little changes and we are ready to begin! :-)
This link should work now: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p5lPQ19JEJJXjUu1WJKI2i3PE-YTyrnemEQkWugiugM/edit
ReplyDeleteFeel free to change whatever you like!
I can't seem to edit it... :(
DeleteI’m not sure about our concept but I thought we were going to encourage bloggers to contribute their own ideas and (recycling-)tips to the blog.
ReplyDeleteIf so, we should add that too.
If not just forget it ;)
Oh I had not thought about that, but I think it is a brilliant idea! Yes, our followers should be able to present their own ideas!
ReplyDeleteWe could change the settings on our blog in order to allow them any contribution BUT only if we approve them first.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we should just have a kind of category for that, let's say "Users Time" or something, not on a specific date, only if we got some contribution of course. Users could send us their idea and we say "oh Nicole from Colorado just sent us this nice recipe for left over roast ..." and then post it ourselves rather than let anyone post something, even with the permission thing... I think it would look better if we posted it ourselves.
ReplyDeleteTrue! I like that.
DeleteIs everyone ok with that concept? If yes, we should def. include it;)

DeleteI've added it to the draft of the article :-)
DeleteThat's a brilliant idea! I like it very much and agree with it :)!
DeleteSo is this thing ready then to be uploaded on the real blog?
