OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1801st compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its Community Incubation Program. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.

This newest curation effort aims to encourage authors to post in appropriate communities even if those communities are not under the incubation program. This will also encourage users to explore more into the different communities in Hive.

OCD curators and community leaders will find posts from other niche communities and recommend them for an upvote. Unlike those communities in the incubation program where curation is focused, this curation initiative is spread out. This will help find undervalued posts from smaller communities that deserve support.

This will highlight both the author and the community where the post is located. This way, smaller niche communities can focus on growing their subscribers and increasing the engagements within their respective communities. A small boost goes a long way.

Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

Howdy, Music. Sometimes we believe that, due to some deterioration, we can lose an instrument, this has happened to me, but thanks to a great luthier @bertrayo, we gave a new life to the “cuatro venezolano” that belongs to my mother and that was in extreme deterioration due to lack of use and for some reasons of neglect. At first we thought of buying a new cuatro, but, knowing that, this “Cuatro” has a high sentimental value, since it was the first instrument of this type that was bought.

We were able to reinvent ourselves and pull off this presentation with this cover of an artist that even people who do not listen to music know her name and those who are not even fans know a song by the great Christina Aguilera.

However, there is some relief to see that from the ashes new beings are sprouting that allow us to have hope in the new generations.

Greetings to the Hive DIY community, it's nice to be able to post again after a while, power failures had damaged the computer that I had just assembled a few months ago.

The computer still has problems, it is not fully repaired, if you connect something to a USB port, the computer turns off, but as it is at this moment I can work while I finish the repairs.

On this occasion I share with you a maintenance that I performed on my father's laptop, it is something simple that we should take into account at least once a year.

Last week, while sharing my thoughts in this community, I mentioned the importance of waking up early. Sleeping habits can actually be fixed in 1 week, but I couldn't do it. I have a problem with sleeping late, I will solve that first. I know that I will use my time more efficiently when I wake up early.

The sea is a place where our mind finds a rest, for me the best place to connect with my inside, the peace and calm that you feel when you are by the sea are incomparable. The sound of the waves and the scent of saltpeter provoke sensations that awaken the senses.

Jesus, Lost has taken so many twists and turns over the last 6 seasons, and I thought I'd talk a bit about some of them and discuss where we're at right now. If anyone hasn't watched Lost, and want to eventually check it out, maybe give this a miss because I'm going to talk about spoilers.

Using our minivan, we went to the store that was still open, and luckily, there was corn rice available. I just bought goods for the week and when I checked the time, it was still 8 pm and we had more time to travel to Bogo City. I wanted to eat something sweet because I felt stressed starting the week.

I decided to go to Dela Rama Café to buy cheesecake but before we went to the café, I saw the 825 Coffee and Co store. I checked the store, but they had no cakes offered so I decided to proceed with the initial plan but when we went there, the store was already closed.

Well, the first thing we do is trace our mold, like a template style, on a white sheet, both the shape of the complete flower, as well as the petal, then we cut it out and frame it in the foam, and then we cut it out as well.

As you can see, we first cut out the shape of the complete flower, and then its respective petals, there are five in total; for them we are going to take each one and fold it in half, and with a little silicone we will stick it to the tip, leaving it like this.

This is the most decorative part of the flower, placing the petals in this way.

Once everything is cut out and our petals are assembled, we proceed to glue it on top of the complete flower. Now in the center we can place the decoration we want, it can be another foam cutout (which is what I did) or even pearls in the center, whatever you have on hand, the important thing is to give it that touch and cover the center.

Hello, collectors, and community greetings. I commented to @mipiano that I don't have a collection like hers,Tote bags. I was thinking it must be connected to Hive or Blockchain. But when I was reading other members posts I realized I have something to present in the community. Yesterday I went through the cupboards yes I put them together in one suitable bag so you can see them they have some wrinkles on. I didn't bother to iron them because they were again in their mother's womb (I mean in the biggest bag).

This concludes this batch's curation report. We would like to congratulate those who are featured and supported. Keep up the good work and continue to explore Hive Communities.
