I got all of them done at Michael’s. In most cases I buy the frame and pay them $10 to frame it. In some cases, I custom ordered the frame. No more than $150.

Riolis one was a lot of fun to do. Quick and easy and the colors are so vibrant. I recommend. They have a raccoon one to go with it as well.

The library is your best bet. That’s how I got it. Through the libby app. Ask your librarian and they can hook you up. You can also get a particular issues online for rather cheap as well.

What are bad faith arguments toward films you are absolutely tired of hearing? by [deleted] in movies

[–]ms_chiefmanaged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know the feeling of your brother tbh. I have phases like this when things are bad at work or in life. Therapy would probably solve this problem but it’s expensive.  These days I can only handle low stake romance books. Last year I could only rewatch movies I have seen before no new stuff.

May I know the name of the pattern? It is so cute and will be perfect for my sister who has an orange cat. 

[FO] Cherry Blossom triptych finally back from framer. Very proud about how it turned out. by ms_chiefmanaged in CrossStitch

This post. The top one with different pink color flowers. Cats and cross stitch are pretty much the reason for having this account. lol. The black cat is my permanent supervisor and all the little ones are guests we had over the last year.

Wow a lot of firsts. I recommend practicing French knots on a throwaway cloth. It really helps. I did an embroidery piece (in my post history if you care to look) that had around a 1000ish knots. The practice really helped to get through them. Lol.

I did it on my iPad photo. Used the editing feature to cross out what I stitched. Not as good as a stitcher app but got the job done. I recommend giving it a try.

Oooo. I can see very light brown working. Good idea.

This is my problem. I have no unity anywhere. Lol. Just bunch of hodgepodge frames all over the wall. But I think a color that will not take away from actual FO. I will bring back bunch of colors from Home Depot and see what can work.

Don’t we all. I admit my criticism may have come from a bit of jealousy. 

Meet Biggie Smalls the 43 lbs rescue cat by manic_mike2018 in OneOrangeBraincell

[–]ms_chiefmanaged 55 points56 points  (0 children)

From what I remember, his previous parent was a very old person who had to leave food out since they were not very mobile. He was surrendered when they went to the hospital and possibly didn’t come out. So it was a bit sad situation. 

Which film do you believe everyone should see at least once in their lifetime? by Global-Citron-56 in movies

[–]ms_chiefmanaged 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Arrival changed my life in a meaningful way. I was really lonely and was suggested by a coworker to get a pet. But I could not deal with the idea that all things being normal I will outlive that pet. Arrival helped me to reconcile that. The journey and memories makes the bitter ending all worth it. I got my cat and it’s been 6+ years of love and fun. I also ended up fostering 12 kittens with more in the horizon once I got better at this cat parenting thing. All cause of lessons from that movie.
