the idea: turn an old badge into guitar picks

The time has come for new badges at work, this is what happens when you’re part-time: your badge expires once a year and you have to go get a new one.  But this year there was something fun along with an expiring badge which is nothing more than one-more-thing-to-remember.  This year, I have a new toy called the Pick Punch.

It was one of those random Christmas presents I got from my stepmother and I hadn’t gotten a chance to use it yet because I’m not one to get a bunch of credit cards.  And that’s what it does, it takes old plastic cards and punches a hole in them, exactly the size of a guitar pick.  What comes out are strange new guitar pics made from old ids, credit cards, or even old badges.
