OCD DAILY - Issue #313

Welcome to the 313th issue of @OCD Daily!

Issue #313 highlights content from ten (10) Steem Content Creators! The OCD team continues its search throughout Steem to find you the undervalued gems, as provided by relatively new users.

Today our curators found ten (10) new pieces of original content! We strive to find works that are created by newer Steem users, that may not have the audience with which to share their quality content. @OCD strives to help provide that audience and intends to showcase Steem users who put in the extra effort to create creative, original content.

The @OCD nomination process

A curator will FIND a piece of work (typically from newer users). Within 24 hours that piece has been submitted from the curator to the @OCD team, curator votes are tallied, and the pieces with the most votes are included in the compilation.

We encourage you to visit these blogs and show these great Steemians your support and encouragement.

If you enjoyed their work, give them a Follow or maybe even say Hello!

All of the content chosen by our curators is undervalued, but there is always one piece that rises to the top. That piece is universally appreciated and valued by our curators making it OCD’s Top Nomination of the Day.

Our top nomination of the day is from @pempumaking

Nowadays we use a lot of things that we throw away after only one use. Paper napkins are one of those things. In this post @pempumaking shows us how to upcycle sustainable napkins from some leftover scrap fabrics she had used before for her other projects such as plushy toys and skirt. Perhaps all of us should think of more about sustainable ways of living to help our planet be more clean from plastic and other waste. Make sure to follow @pempumaking for more creative projects in future!

Our next nomination of the day is from @znkd

@znkd is an amazing illustrator and he delivers another atmospheric art work with this Aliens inspired piece : ) The full animated process gif is worth the wait to watch fully, and the post includes zoomed up images of both the ship in the snow storm and the three astronauts, who seemed to be dwarved by the hostile environment in the full scale of the canvas (also included in the post is the link to the full res of the art) !

Our next nomination of the day is from @thermoplastic

It is allways a great pleasure to meet friends again and even a greater one if you have a whole journey together with amazing weather visiting a great city. That is what @thermoplastic is talking about in his newest post where he meets his artist friend @anibas to make together a photo tour through Vienna. That weather is so good that can even go to a beach bar on the riverside of the Danube.
