sbq Question of the week

What do you do with your orts?

I used to just junk them. Now my elder daughter has convinced me that they need to be saved, so I put them in a little glass jar. The jars look rather pretty with a year or so of orts in them, so for now they're part of the decor of my living room.

My friend Meredith made me a Christmas ornament out of orts a couple of years ago, back when Lewiscraft (now defunct) was selling hollow plastic ornaments specifically for filling with orts. It's lovely.
