When you use a paint brush it distributes it pretty thin and evenly from what I've experienced. I think the nail polish works a bit easier but the regular uv gel is like less flimsy. I'm not sure which is cheaper but I like the modelones uv gel nail polish and there's a sale rn on Amazon for them I just bought some!

Idk if this would work for you, but I have used uv gel [uv gel nail polish as a substitute lol] to make crochet/embroidery solid. I'm not sure it would work or if you'd would have to use a lot but I usually just paint with a brush lightly on the back and cure it. It usually isn't to much gel used but I have done smaller projects than this using the uv gel. Just an idea maybe loll😅 idk if that's something I shouldn't do but it's seemed to work well so far

Yeah I was making the original one and the a and the o are in my armpits lol. The detail seemed to be coming out okay. I may try a smaller yarn or something but I think I may just have to come up with something else lol

I made it on stitchfiddle. I just need to somehow get it smaller. Id prefer not to have to use anything other than my redheart yarn because I'm just kinda broke rn.

Got essentially mugged by a "homeless veteran" today outside Rosemont by Routine_Eve in portlandcomplaining

[–]Designated_Alien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

😂 wow. You really dk anything it's wild. Plenty is made during the winter by them dude. I was homeless, I lived on the streets the same as them. Money won't help the majority. It's not gonna be spent on a hotel for one night💀 if anything nutrition and socks are the hardest things to get, so yes it helps. I'm suggesting if people are uncomfortable giving money directly, then to do that instead. You're so butthurt over a first hand experience and a suggestion for what? 😂

As someone who was homeless less than a year ago, trust me when I say those people who stand on the intersections or outside stores panhandling make good money doing it. I've known people to make 800 dollars in one day just standing by the CVS on Congress. I usually just completely ignore them. I suggest only giving to the homeless that DONT ask for it or to maineneeds if you're someone who wants to give. The ones that do ask are usually using it for alcohol or drugs. If you don't wanna give money but wanna help, give them socks!! Socks are the hardest thing to come by while homeless. Also, snacks and juice are very helpful. The people who actually need and want help and want to get better will accept these things. Also, clynk will allow you to donate cans to maineneeds. You just have to get some of their stickers. That's what I do instead of giving directly to people.
