14) For #DecRecs today I'm reccing Cayote Brush Studios, for all your California plants and critter art needs!
I recently got a new laptop and I ordered a bunch of stickers from them. They also do prints, posters, washi tape, and other things!

I love the selection of species, things aren't super well known and not frequently depicted in art but that still feel iconic!

They also have some pride merch!

15)Today's #DecRecs is a series of short documentaries Conserving Vulture Peak by the British Museum

About conserving an embroidered tapestry for Dunghuang. There's cool stuff like dye analysis, too! There's 8 videos each less than 10 minutes long: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0LQM0SAx602PTJ1OHYsMnIybgkbNfPpv

16)Today I'm feeling very tired and struggling to come up with something for #DecRecs but past me has my back , because I've written a bunch of rec lists. So today I'm re-sharing “The Joy of Artifact Fanfic: a Rec List”
So enjoy some fic composted of letters, forum posts, twitter threads and other documents

Thanks for the recs! I enjoyed "The Witches of Athens," which did not develop in the direction I expected, and I spent some fun time checking out the Coyote Brush Studios site.
