  factory farming is a huge form of animal cruelty so if you’re unaware of where your meat is coming from then you are part of the problem…

This is actually a really good point. This discussion came up in my Political Ecology class this morning because we were talking about an article we had to read for class about slaughterhouses. We didn’t finish the conversation though, wasn’t enough time, but the question of where to place blame came up, and the general consensus was; the consumer, the slaughterhouse, or the food industry as a whole? I think all but one person came to the conclusion in the end though that it was a mix of all three, and a lot of policy changes on the federal level are needed. Which is tough because the meat and dairy industry basically control the FDA. Things like the food pyramid were created based on their “scientific” advice, which is a big part of why Americans eat so much meat.

DIY - Layer Up Head Chain 

Every year at Coachella I suffer with the same dilemma, no electricity at the campsites means no hair straightener! I wanted to create a hair accessory that would accommodate my hair situation for this upcoming weekend. This lovely layered chain provides some bedazzle to an otherwise boring bun. 

MATERIALS:

3-4 Different Types of Chains

2 Small Jump rings

2 Metal Cord Tips 

2 Thick Bobby Pins 

E - 6000 Glue

Measuring Tape

Pliers 

1. Begin my setting up the template of how you want your chains to layer down. Using your measuring tape, measure each chain one inch longer as you layer down, and trim. I started with 8 inches, then 9, 10, and finally the rhinestone chain at 11 inches long. 

2. Next, take one of your jump rings and begin to insert the chains in the order of your template. Repeat with opposite end of your chains. Then using your pliers close off hoop. 

3. Now that you have a semi looking necklace, take one of your bobby pins and insert the jump hoop through it. Repeat this with second bobby pin on opposite end. 

4. Now taking one of your metal cord tips, secure around the bobby pin and close shut. This will secure the chain in place. Repeat with opposite bobby pin and you are all done.
