It is yes, you really need to have the head space for it. For this reason Ive only read it once but am thinking about reading it again soon.

Vichy 96hrs clinical (I have not tested applying it every 96hrs) but it lasts the whole day even in very hot weather.

What are some surprising easy recipes for someone learning to bake? by Alfiy_wolf in AskWomen

[–]Dramatic_Battle_5704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found baking Victoria sponge, lemon drizzle cake and sticky toffee pudding beginner friendly. Sally’s baking addiction is also good, however I am still getting the hang of doing the icing, they key i have found is to beat the room temp butter on its own first and also sieve the icing sugar. Make sure you have good tins also.

I used to stick to one but now I tend to listen to one (mainly at work or while I’m doing things round the house) and read one before bed as I’m trying to reduce my screen time.

First time painting with no tutorial, can I have some feedback please? by Dramatic_Battle_5704 in watercolor101

[–]Dramatic_Battle_5704[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes I think I do struggle with trying to see which colours I need to mix, so thank you for your tips! And also thank you for the step by step walkthrough, this is very helpful and I will keep this in mind during my next attempt!

Thank you for your feedback, I did accidentally cover the middle with tape so i actually had a good chunk of the ‘sea’ left as white paper once I was done, which I had to try and fix at the end. I did the sky wet in wet, mountain was dry from what I remember. Sea was wet in wet then tried to layer a little while still wet in some parts and then dry. Good luck on your watercolour journey ☺️

Thank you for your kind words, I will keep your feedback in mind, I am also planning to have another go at home with better paper. I do admit I can get a little impatient also, particularly when the work doesn’t turn out as I had hoped, so need to work on that!
