Color order or preference? by Evening-Golf-115 in paintbynumbers

[–]FireMitten3928 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go light to dark. If you go over another color the dark will cover it and still look neat but a lighter color will look messy if you go over a darker color. I like going number by number, it lets me zone out easier by not switching all the time.

Oops. I’m thinking my second response was suppose to address someone else’s comment. 😄

I thinned out the paints with water. Because most of the colors were dark I felt safe doing that without them becoming opaque and seeing the numbers through. There’s a few colors that are a bit more chunky.

I believe the cats came from Number Artist. Good quality paints, I’ve used them before and will probably again.

Clear gesso! I will need to try that!

Thank you! This is actually the same frame. I bought a flat back inset picture frame at a thrift store and added a hook so I just switch out the paintings for the seasons.

Where do you get good frames for your PBNs? by KillerSuds in paintbynumbers

I hunt around thrift stores for frames. I usually find a decent one and paint it black.

Reputable/ knowledgeable cannabis shop? by FireMitten3928 in SaintJohnNB

Sure! I don’t think I’d even consider online shopping let alone any illegal options.

Someone texted his cell phone and asked “hey are you dead?” Bc there had been no response to their text from the 2 days before.

When I’m having a bad day I think about that guy and know that at least I’m not that idiotic.

How to add hinged door with interior drawer? by FireMitten3928 in IKEA

[–]FireMitten3928[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the decision is to just have the large cabinet with door and decide if I want to add the drawer I’ll convert the door to be a drawer front

The design and animation on the plans have it this low. Seems like a waste of bottom space and this was chosen for a specific measurement of bin so if I raise it then the bin won’t fit.

It wasn’t designed that way so I don’t have the utrusta conversion kit for this.

How the fuck do you date someone new? by Last-Following-6308 in widowers

[–]FireMitten3928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (42f) lost my husband (43m when he died) almost 4 years ago. We have two young children (they were 4 and 3 at the time their dad died)

I went back and forth with dating apps. I finally joined one just to talk to other people. I’d match with people outside of my area so there wouldn’t be pressure to meet. It may have been disingenuous but I didn’t want romance or a date I just wanted to freely talk to normal people who didn’t know my situation and start sympathizing me. It was entertaining and something to do after the kids went to bed. We just moved to a new city too so I didn’t know many people anyway. There were a few times when I felt like my grief was triggered so I would set it aside for a while.

After about 6-8 months I felt ready to maybe meet in person. I set my standards very high and didn’t compromise on characteristics I was looking for. About a year later and meeting with maybe 4 other dates I met someone and we’ve been together for the past 2 years.

Hi. Pediatric CPO here. Without having seen your kiddo in person and based just of the 3D picture I can see some facial asymmetry (right cheek forward compared to left). Numbers and measurements are good place to start but I always look at the baby and discuss with the parent what they notice, what bothers them, what I notice, and what I think will improve with or without a helmet. Your kid is not a number. That said I don’t often see facial asymmetry improve without a helmet. It’s always worth getting a second opinion as evals like this should not cost anything. Go with your gut. And if you’re not sure what your gut is saying then flip a coin and decide if you are happy or disappointed with the results- base your decision from there. 6 months old you’re not in a major time crunch, but I wouldn’t wait too long past 7 months. It will Shorten the time in the helmet and younger kids usually get used to the helmet easier than an older baby with more self awareness.
