My mom collects Advent calendars, and also loves crafts that feature photos of her favorite people, so I used her interests as inspiration for my newest Advent calendar craft: a Magnetic Photo Advent Calendar. This project uses some items from the dollar store, and some from the craft store, and the instructions can be found over at MyPrintly: [Magnetic Photo Advent Calendar]

It might be a bit late in the season to make this for this year, but don't forget to pin it for next year!

Project Materials:

(Items in bold can be found at the dollar store)

 

• 9×12” metal cookie sheet
• 1” flat-backed clear glass marbles
• Turquoise acrylic paint
• Glossy decoupage medium
• Strong button-style magnets
• E-6000 glue (clear)
• A piece of green scrapbook paper, at least 8.5×11”
• 1” round paper punch
• Paint brush
• Scissors

Rouge One is the biggest movie on the planet, and we finally devote a whole show to talk about the most diverse (or is it?) Star Wars ever filmed. Joining in on the fun is Tosche-Station.net writer, and Star Wars superfan, Bria LaVorgna and Black Girl Nerds’ movie reviewer, and occasional NOC contributor, Valerie Complex. [Spoilers throughout!]

Topics covered on the show include:

• The decision to go with Gareth Edwards’ stark vision of the Star Wars universe
• The seamless transition between Rogue One and A New Hope
• A discussion of the film’s commitment to diversity but lack of women of color
• Star Wars movies’ tendency to cast white British women in lead roles
• The movie’s realistic take on rebellion and insurgency and how Rogue One might be the most anti-colonialist Star Wars ever made
• The subtext of Chirrut Imwe and Baze Malbus (played by Donnie Yen and Jiang Wen) and why its depiction of masculinity is needed

All this and more on Hard NOC Life! Watch it on your screen, hit “play,” and check this.
