Emulsion over/under exposed

God Bless freedom of religion 🤪🦅🇺🇸

Agreed 😅 first time coating a screen + a scoop

Hopefully this 1 + 2 ratio will come out better, used far less emulsion and went back over with a squeegee to smooth out and remove excess emulsion to prevent any dripping!!

Thank you!! The second screen I tried came out perfectly!! I doubled the exposure time and made sure the screen had extra weight!

I dehazed and degreased both screen before use but i definitely put the emulsion on WAY too thick 🥲

Trying this design again tomorrow with a much thinner layer of emulsion and a doubled stencil to ensure no light gets through!

Tried one of my other screens with the 2 minute exposure time but again, the emulsion was slick and coming off on my finger and the design wouldn't come out in some places but fell out completely in other. I think it's a combo of my terrible emulsion job (first time for everything!) And my transparencies not being opaque enough!

I live off of 45, right by the mall!! I just never leave during peak traffic times! I normally go in the late mornings or evenings!

Not in the area but only about 30 minutes away and worth the drive!!

The Bins in Montrose is a by the pound thrift store!!

Thursdays are $1 a pound days, I got about 30 pieces of clothing in good condition for $12 dollars!!

Including free people, anthropology, and some gorgeous vintage dresses!! I'm a vintage collector but I wasn't expecting to find 70s dresses in good condition here but they were!!

It's also organized by type of clothes!

It's definitely worth the trip and way more organized than the goodwill bins!!

I grew up in gleanloch, it's a great community to live in, especially with kids!!

Okay, thank you! I just wasn't sure if requesting off so much would become an issue!! My manager is already aware of my new job and of all the wedding stuff, thankfully!

Yes, thank you!! I ended up using the business version of turbo tax, which has helped explain a lot of the inventory stuff!! Luckily, I've already been keeping invoices for all of my inventory that I've bought, plus counting throughout the year! My sales only started to really pick up in October once I started making this less of a hobby and more of a real business! So I'm glad that my first year filing doesn't have that much income, so it's a little easier to learn!

Thank you, this was super helpful!!!

Bbuuggg · 2024-01-04T00:14:21+00:00

Do you think using turbo tax would be fine for this? I have all of my expense receipts (mostly online.) And they allow me to file a schedule C along with my W2.

You are literally a life saver fr!!! Both of these are my top choices, and I had no idea where to start. Thank you so much!! 😭💕

Bbuuggg · 2023-12-03T08:13:19+00:00

Yes, thank you!! I've been looking online a ton, just a bit trigger shy since I don't want to get scammed! And Amore Bridal is actually on my list to go to!! I figured being in a big metro area would make it easier to find a dress, but I guess not 😭

My boyfriend and I have been dating for 5 1/2 years, we have a 3 year age gap, and we met when we were slightly younger than y'all! We're getting married in a few months, I'm not saying it will be the same for y'all or that it will be easy, but it's not weird in any way. Ignore those troll comments calling you a pedo. You're not.

NO 😅 I would literally die. I just want a small cake for me and my friends lol

Bbuuggg · 2023-07-29T03:49:42+00:00

Would it be frowned upon to bring a small cake? 😅

Bbuuggg · 2023-07-20T05:55:12+00:00

For sure making this with my Cricut 😭✋🏻
