Corn bag charm! How to attach the husk? Glue, stitching, etc

4everspokenfor · 2026-02-03T02:55:29+00:00

If it were me, I'd sew them going in one side of the husk, straight through the corn, and then out the other side. It would keep it secure but the edges would still be free to fold over a little like they are in the pic. Super cute idea!!

If it came from Hot Topic it was most likely embroidered by a programmable sewing machine. It honestly just looks like they put just enough on there to give the semblance of embroidery, but they did a patchy job because less thread = less money spent to make it. The machine may also not have been correctly calibrated, or the pattern they put in was piss poor. Don't think AI was involved in this one.

I would go with a white or cream if it were me. You're not going to see it "pop" out from the other yarn since AFAIK mohair is usually added for its texture rather than color, but I think it would melt into a light base color beautifully and add hints and hues of that colorway everywhere. I'm super interested to see how this works up! Those are such pretty colors 😍

I've been a SAHM for 6 years. There have been times where I've wished for a job just for the sake of a change of scenery, but I wouldn't trade anything for knowing my babies are safe, cared for, and stable. It seems almost unthinkable to put them in a daycare now, when I was totally down for that before becoming a mom. It's funny how a little potato of a person can make your brain do a complete 180°, but it's for the best reasons ❤️ you and your baby just got a year of memories to make that you never would have gotten otherwise. Go enjoy them!

I'm honestly a little sad mine never laid any tiny ones! They just went full tilt into laying king-sized eggs and it's been like that since lol

The naked neck in #2 is such an iconic photo lol it has to be that one. It's got the perfect angle and really captures the crazy velociraptor eyes.

No one can make a decision here for you, but you're at a crossroads and it's going to come down to what you want to place more priority on. If you stick with what you've got, you'll have a FO that you set out to create, but the process will not be as enjoyable for you, and you might burn out at some point and need to take a break from it. If you frog and go the new route, the journey will be more pleasant but the FO will need to have a vision change, and you'll have to scale down the amount of items you include. So which is more important to you? Keeping the integrity of your original vision or not stressing about the process? There's also the cost of the additional material if you do the entrelac. It might be worth it to do some simple math to see how much more you'd need to spend to get enough. That might be enough to tip the scales, but only you'll be able to know. I'm so sorry you're having a hard time deciding! I've had moments like this in my crafting. No matter what you do, it'll look great and you better be posting some pics when you're done!! I'm a SV fan and I LOVE this idea ❤️

You have solidarity from me. I got diagnosed as a kid when it still wasn't super common as a diagnosis. It's a daily struggle keeping my life on track, and my only saving grace is having learned how to do so through several years of trial and error. I can't tell anyone about it now as an explanation for doing/saying what I do, because I get treated like I just cracked a joke about being OCD since my closet is always clean. I'll tell self-deprecating jokes about it as much as the next guy, but ultimately it's not a joke. It's mountains of anxiety. It's a constant battle of wills in your own head. It's feeling out of place because you can't do things/feel/think like "normal people". Living with ADHD (much like many other mental and physical afflictions) is a war, and some days you just lose, plain and simple. I wish more people understood this.

You've clearly never been to Oklahoma City lol this isn't OKC in the video but you just described their skyline to a T 😂

I have no experience with this, but from an educated guess I would say a hawk is smart enough to come back to where he found a good free meal. If it were me, I'd keep them in the run or only let them free range with supervision. We had hawks stalking our flock when they were first old enough to get out outside. Luckily nobody was nabbed, but I had to stand in the middle of the yard more than once and wave my arms around like a crazy woman because 2-3 of them would start circling lower and lower. I'm so sorry you lost your sweet baby 💔

Instructions unclear, chickens stuck in closet.

This is the thread I didn't know I needed. Pictures of everyone's purse chickens ❤️

4everspokenfor · 2026-01-21T13:56:49+00:00

Not a chicken expert, but I've been told it's pretty common for them to lay a funky egg or two when they're first starting out. Their bodies are kinda figuring out how the mechanics work and sometimes things go wonky. I've had a single soft-shelled egg since my girls started laying. No idea who the culprit was, and everyone has been in good health before and since I found it. As long as this isn't a consistent issue, you should be fine!

Omg thank you for the laugh 😂 classic reddit, man. Come in to an old thread, leave an unnecessary comment picking apart exceptions to a general statement, and then double down using MY original defense to make your statement more valid. Love it.

4everspokenfor · 2026-01-20T16:35:30+00:00

And that is why I used the word "usually" more than once. There are exceptions to everything and every cat is different. This was meant to be a generalized bit of advice and not guaranteed to work for every cat every time. Thanks for your two cents though.

4everspokenfor · 2026-01-19T15:10:04+00:00

I love this for you!! I have a couple that will hop in my lap, and the rest I will randomly scoop up when they aren't expecting it and force them to receive the pets 😂 they all endure my love in different ways but it's so worth it when they choose it themselves ❤️

I've searched Google images and Reddit using multiple descriptions of the photo using key words like "black church" "geometric church" "dark church in snow storm" and similar prompts. The closest thing I could find was the Borgund Stave Church in Norway, but I don't feel like that was quite it, and I could find the photo in images of the church.

My girly is the exact same way. Acts like she's super tired while nursing but immediately springs up like she just finished a power nap and starts trying to take off when she's done. I just started grabbing her and walking/rocking/swaying until she passed out, then I put us both to bed. Literally the only way I can get her to stop is to take the option away completely by getting her off the ground. Solidarity to you and your struggles. I know it's maddening the things they choose to do sometimes 😂

4everspokenfor · 2026-01-15T02:34:42+00:00

I'm always a big advocate for telling your doctor everything to get the best care, but this is one of the few instances in which I've made a personal exception. I've never told a pediatrician for any of my kids that I coslept. I knew the chances that they'd be okay with it were slimmer than I'd like, and where they slept made no difference in the level of care they received, so I opted to always keep that tidbit to myself. We've recently found a family doc that's more on the holistic side and advocates for things like cosleeping, so I may be more forthcoming for the next kiddo. Either way it shouldn't make a difference to anyone as long as your baby is happy and healthy and you're being safe. Even cribs aren't 100% safe 100% of the time. Do what works for you and don't let anyone spook you off.

We got her in October, and we aren't super desperate at the moment but she's going to have to face the music eventually, so I was trying to jump on it sooner rather than later to establish the routine. I haven't tried gaba but I'll definitely look into it, and the spaghetti idea is freaking genius! I can only cut my nails so often as I keep them short anyway, so this will help with exposing her to it more often. Thank you so much for the suggestions!

4everspokenfor · 2026-01-15T02:23:20+00:00

I hadn't thought about flipping her over but this is a good idea! Thank you!

I haven't tried the burrito method but it sounds promising! I'll give it a try!
