When you are on vacation....
...and stay at home it can happen that you have a bit free time, and you get some weird ideas.
And you go and get a white shopping bag and some elastic bands, a string, some colour and some pens to write on the bag.
Then you do this:
And you put it in a nice bowl of blue soup
After it's out of the bowl and dry you take one of the pens - just take a closer look at it, you can only use it for one thing: 
After 5 minutes in the oven you get this:
To make it complete you turn it around and write this:
When finished you notice you might not take it out with you because you are 43, not 13....

Re: When you are on vacation....
That's wonderful, Mattlocked! 
You absolutely have to take it out with you in order to attract attention for that good cause called Sherlock. Just imagine - people who you don't know would address you in the streets!
Maybe thus you'll be able to discover one of the rare specimen of German Sherlockians...
And don't worry about your age. Finally, you're a proud ageless Sherlockian, aren't you?

Re: When you are on vacation....
Wow, That's Brilliant! 
I so totally would take that out. But I'm not 43, so... I still think you should; it's really beautiful!
That 'GET SHERLOCK' side is really accurate, and it's so neat! My hand always shakes when I use those 3D pens.
I would never have the patience to tie all those knots but it is so worth it!
Lovely

I was wondering if you'd like to have coffee...
Hmm. I really don't know. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say 'know'? I meant 'care'. I don't really care.

Re: When you are on vacation....
Thank you!
Tobe, I'm wearing t-shirts and my sportsbag all the time, believe me, there ARE'NT any Sherlockians here!
Oh, wait, there is me! 
Molly, my hands were shaking, but the yellow 3D pen smiley was half a "free" one (I painted around a saucer), B.O.R.E.D. was "free"; the difficulty was the normal, white textile pen. I used no pattern, just the computer screen in front of me... I'm glad that it is recognizable.
The knots were the smallest problem.

The bag's great and you take it with you by all means. Just got soaked in a heavy mountain thunderstorm.

Re: When you are on vacation....
Thank you!
Well...the more I look at it.....
I think I could take it out. I prefer the "get sherlock" side to the outside, the more childish side hiding....
Mustn't be much more difficult to write it on a shirt...... hmmmm....

Re: When you are on vacation....
Yes, try it on a t-shirt. I love it when creative people are doing things I myself wouldn't be able to do. Maybe you could set up a little online shop, I'm sure you'll find a lot of customers in this forum .

I thought it was German for 'douchebag' but that do didn't fit the context.
Das ist alles sehr schwierig aber auch schoen!
