I use rolled facial tissue, white glue, wire and paint.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

So, over the weekend, I rolled up some foil for kicks. I think it has potential, but I need to paint it up. Haven't done that yet.

I use dried used teabag material rolled up on .008 on wire. It works well for canvas cab shades too.

Very nice. The teabag material seems like the way to go.

 Is there any particular teabag material from tea producers that anybody has found more suitable over others?

I'm surprised @Ed Kapuscinski didn't use teabags given his expertise in receiving them.

Someone's wife may get offended though.  Can't have that!

I was thinking of something PG-rated (ok, G-rated) using this type of a photo:

"Ed K teabags his models. Do you?"
There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

Remind me to not buy anything from Ed K. If thats the case...  :facepalm:

@Ed Kapuscinski this is real life, not Call of Duty! Those arent the enemy you are teabagging!

I love you guys.

Ok, so here's my latest. This was done with rolled up aluminum foil. I'm pretty happy.

I want to tone the color down a bit, but I'm not going to throw it out of bed for eating cookies.
