I don't know if I'm allowed to ask this but, did they mention if we can use slime?

Chris said that as long as the liquid isn't opaque it should be fine, you should just be able to see what's inside your jar!

joining the busy schedule gang and hoping to get some details so i can think! although maybe i'd need to post in the specific threads when i unlock them
does it specifically have to be in a jar? i might be able to clean one out tbf but would any clear container like a measuring jug be acceptable?

The instructions just say it has to be a jar with a lid, so whatever falls under that and works for you.

does it give suggestions for what you can make the specimen out of? in my experience, a lot of stuff is just going to melt/break/lose shape in water, and i'm not exactly rolling in spare money so i don't want to buy a material that's gonna end up useless.

No, but you are allowed to use pre-existing items and they just have to fit the autumn/halloween theme. So far there is no "accept" react yet so I can't tell if someones entry would be accepted but they just used a pre-existing mythical creature figure. I asked and you are also allowed to do creature/body parts, so you could just find something and call it a monster part instead of making a whole creature.

that's super helpful and interesting! thanks for clarifying! pretty sure i might have an old HP figure laying around that i could just refer to as something else, assuming the entry you mentioned gets accepted.

I tried this, it didn’t work 😭
The paint made the water too blurry, and you couldn’t quite see what was inside.
You could experiment with food juices that you have in the fridge though, and that works. I ended up using cleaning liquid though and it doesn’t look bad and I was able to see what’s inside.I had a couple of cleaning liquids that were colored and I’m still experimenting there. I was able to find purple, yellow, and blue I had around. Anyways, I thought I would share this, since the paint didn’t work for me. Another alternative is also dish soap (like dawn diluted).

hey, can i ask how much paint you used? i feel like a drop or two should probably give it just enough color without making it too thick/opaque, but it also probably depends on the type of paint. i don't really have colored cleaning liquids or anything, unfortunately. i could try super diluted summer fruit juice if all else fails.

No problem, but yeah we'll just have to wait and see what gets accepted but seeing from feedback from others I feel like they would probably be okay with it. Especially since the wording of the event just says to pick the item(s) you want to put in the jar, I don't think they expected everyone to go make something to put inside.

Also if you don't have food coloring or drinks, mouthwash could work too if you have some. Could even try using tea or pickle juice.

well that part's at least somewhat easier then. the jar could be an issue, but hopefully i still have one kicking around from when i went through a phase of putting things in them asdfghjkl.

I squirted a very small amount, maybe 2 drops but unfortunately when I went to mix it with the paintbrush, it turned very opaque. I used acrylic paint. Like sort of when you finish painting and you clean the brush in water…it turns the water opaque. I feel like I should have realized that’s what would happen, but I tried it anyways.
I was trying green paint, it wasn’t a dark paint either, more like lime green.

If you have liquid soap, that words as well. Like colored dish soap. Or the juice that they use to preserve jar foods like olive, if all fails, those are good options as well. Also wine. If you have. I was contemplating using some red wine and diluting it, but didn’t have to resort to that. Or even juice works I think. Maybe tomato juice, orange juice, Gatorade in color, etc.
 
Does anyone know when the next key will be available to open up another room? I don’t think the bedroom is doable for me because I’ve been brainstorming different costume ideas all day, but I don’t know what to make for my Stitches plushie. Unless someone can give me an idea?…

I did the cemetery earlier today and I've already got the bedroom task ready to go. This is fun
 
for The Bedroom task, is there a minimum amount of supplies that need to be used to create the costume? Like do you need three different materials or can it just all be paper? TIA for the help!

no, no minimum number of supplies, just no outfits already made for plushies or dolls
 
@NebulaNights
You should be able to do the game/puzzle in the Study as well. There are no materials required, just access to the forum/internet.

For those worried about the Study:
It really wasn't too difficult. I chose that room first in case it turned out to be as nerve-wracking as the egg hunt clues, but it's really fun and not too hard. I did get stuck at one point but I walked away and came back later and was able to work through it. Unfortunately, there's not much more that can be said without giving things away, but I wouldn't be afraid of that room.
 
Ok so the study was very fun and easy. I’m glad I got it out of the way. I was very scared. I have now completed all rooms. I just have to wait until I’m able to access them 😊

Glad I was able to do everything today. I would have been stressed the rest of the week, and I really wanted to compete all of them for the collectibles.
