You didn’t get much sleep last night. Maybe you were stressed. Maybe the kids were up and down. Maybe your pet decided it would be fun to need to go to the bathroom outside multiple times. Whatever the case, when you got dressed this morning you were so tired EVERYTHING was cattywampus and it’s like you got dressed in the dark. Your shoes became a fashionable hat on your head, your pants turned into a fine scarf, and your shirt or jacket? They became tuxedo pants, short shorts, a skirt or some other lower extremity covering. Socks? Well those became gloves, we think. But you know best. What happened to your underwear? Did it become jewelry? A tie? A belt? Only you know. Show us how you put it all together. Impress us with mixed-up fashion skills.

Item 65 – Vax the COVID Vaccine Mascot
Propaganda isn’t always a bad thing; sometimes it’s helpful! Design a mascot for Vax, the Lovable COVID vaccine to help convince people to get their shot. – Deidra L.
Item 64 – Pull the Thread
On Supernatural, they always said, “Don’t pull the thread!” We say pull the thread. Create a portrait of a Supernatural character out of a single thread, in the style of Slovenian artist Cvern.
Item 63 – Tooth Fairy Trap
The tooth fairy gives money to millions of kids, so she’s got to be carrying tons of money at any given point. Set a trap for the tooth fairy so you can catch her and steal her dough.
Item 62 – Bee Nightclub
Bees communicate by dancing, so naturally, they need a bee nightclub — create a 1960’s “Flower Power” themed nightclub for bees complete with actual bee-friendly flowers around it and little bottlecap water stations at the bar so they can hydrate!
Item 60 – Bark Dog
Tree bark. Does it? Let’s see a portrait of your favorite dog (fictional or your own) made out of bark.
Item 58 – #RandomActs4Holli
The GISH and Random Acts communities just lost one of our own to cancer: Holli was a dear friend, Gisher, and volunteer. She was also a longtime champion for food equity, so we’re taking up the mantle: Sign up to volunteer or make a donation to , the food bank where Holli devoted her time, or your local food bank or a food equity program while wearing a crown of holly, real or manufactured. Post a photo of you in your crown with proof of your donation on social media tagging @randomactsorg, #GISH, and #RandomActs4Holli.
Item 57 – Weird Use for a Pineapple
That’s definitely NOT a normal use for a pineapple, but gotta say, we dig it.
Item 55 – Car Jewelry Theft
While you were sleeping, your car broke into the local jewelry store and scored a pair of beautiful giant earrings, a necklace and perhaps even a tiara. You woke up to see it in the driveway fully adorned.
Item 54 – Hieronymus Bosch’s BusyTown
The characters of Richard Scarry’s BusyTown are busier than ever since they got trapped in that Hieronymus Bosch painting.
